Tyler Update

Tyler may be here sooner than we expected. Mom is really uncomfortable now. She went to the doctor yesterday because she was having a lot of contractions. She checked her cervix and she is already dilated to 1 cm. The doctor said she doesn't want the baby to be born before 36 weeks so Kelly is now on bed rest again. The doctor said she has to lie down for the rest of the time. We will go back next Thursday for another ultrasound to see how big Tyler is getting and how things are going. She also gave Kelly a prescription to take in case she has more than ten contractions in one hour. They're supposed to slow them down but hopefully she won't have to take any of them because they can cause heart palpitations. Dad is torn right now. I'm really excited yet worried at the same time. I wonder how life will be when Tyler finally arrives - will I be a good dad, will I be able to set a good example for Tyler? I'm sure all dads feel the same way as I do to some degree. I can't wait!
