Alison, if you come to WDW we will so have to go out for drinks or something.
When I went into premature labor with DS they had me drinking about 2 gallons of water every day!! I thought I was going to float away. My doctor said to think in terms of Gallons, not cups. But it obviously did it's job because it stopped the contractions. DS was born 6 weeks early, but he was over 6 pounds. So I shudder to think how much he would have weighed had I gone full term.
We only had to stay in the hospital 2 days total. He had difficulty adjusting his body temp and was a little jaundiced, but other than that no problems. I really do think drinking all that water made a huge difference, if I had a day I didn't drink a lot of water I could tell the contractions would start up again. Don't know why the water thing works, but it does.If you like strawberry lemonade, you can try the Crystal Light lemonade and instead of ice cubes add big frozen unsweetened strawberries. I buy the big bags of them from Costco and either just drop them in my lemonade or put them in a blender with the lemonade.
Frelan named the Matrix Sapphire... on account of her being a pretty blue.
Those puppies are like $30.
