We are off bedrest! Woohoo! We saw the doctor today and since we have had no more scares and tomorrow Lauren is 36 weeks she is off bedrest! Ideally McMiller will stay a few more weeks but the doctor said if Lauren were to go into labor tomorrow she wouldn't stop it. We don't think McMiller will come this early but Lauren (and Aaron) are so relieved that she can now do more. We also got the results of the Group B Strep test taken last week, and Lauren does not have it, so that is wonderful news. We will go back next week for another checkup.
Many of you have asked about a baby shower for us. We decided that since this is not our first and the two are so close together that we were uncomfortable having a shower thrown for us. But we thank everyone for the sentiment. We have decided, instead, to allow a "shower" of sorts to be thrown after the baby comes so that everyone can come and meet McMiller. Yet another reason to look forward to her debut!
