Less than a month to go...a LOT less!

Baby Kurash-Kusheba was due August 12, 2011.  Thinking we had almost a month before he entered the world we headed to the beach for the weekend!  Feeling good, we decided to head out and meet our old beach house crew at Jimmy's Bar. We had a lot of fun talking, laughing and dancing with our friends. So much fun, I surprised Jason and myself when I stayed out until near 1:00 in the morning. It seemed strange when we were saying our goodbyes when Jen T mentioned the next time they might see us, we would have a baby. We had almost another month...or so we thought!

It was a beautiful beach day on Sunday so we decided to layout and get some Vitamin D! After enjoying  a fabulous day on the beach we debated whether we should stay the night in Rehoboth or head back to Wilmington.  Turns out we made a VERY smart decision!!! After cleaning up the house and packing up the car we drove back to Wilmington near 8:00 pm. While relaxing on the couch, I started to feel some cramping in my belly.  After about 15 minutes, I mentioned the strange feeling to Dr. Jason Kusheba;) Jason quickly went to our fridge to read the checklist we had hanging "Preterm Labor Signs." 2 minutes later I was laying feet elevated, drinking several glasses of water.  After about an hour of this, we decided it was time to call the doctor.  She explained I was probably having Braxton Hicks contractions and should try to go to sleep. So we did.  We slept great from 11:30pm to 6:30 am. Oh what I would give to sleep that long now! HA!
