Specialist Visit

Today I visited the specialist's office.  The visit did not go very well. The ultrasound room is always very hot there.  During my ultrasound, I became hot and very light headed.  The tech stopped the ultrasound after doing a quick scan on each baby and checking each heart rate.  The babies are all doing great!  No pictures today due to the short ultrasound. :(

My cervix has also shortened to little more than 2cm.  The number they like to see it above is 2.5cm.  Less than two weeks ago I was at 3.5-4cm.  Although it can vary, this big drop was very discouraging news to me.  The specialist put me on progesterone.  Suprisingly, he did not put me on bedrest, but I have put myself on bedrest.  I hope to hear better news when I go to the doctor on Monday.  I would appreciate your prayers. I want these babies to stay in as long as possible!
