Evening update

Thanks everyone for all the wonderful comments and support!  Since not many people around me actually know what is going on, it is so great to have your support.

I feel WAY better than I did when I wrote the last post.  I'm not quite sure why, but I suddenly feel "normal" again.  I was soooo out of it, probably due to lack of food and lots of tylenol.  I took the second dose of misoprostal almost 4 hours ago.  Since then, everything has majorly calmed down.  It's weird because I was expecting it to get way worse.  Maybe I didn't insert it far enough in?  Or maybe this is the calm before the storm?  I don't know, but I'm not complaining at having a bit of reprieve.  I was able to get out of bed, eat a tiny bit of dinner, do some sewing (I have to get this quilt done before my sis arrives in a few weeks).  The contractions have mostly stopped and it's more like cramping now.  The bleeding has actually subsided a bit.  I'm not sure that means it's "over" but for now I feel alright.  I sent DH out for some gelato and am going to cuddle up with a movie and the hot water bottle (Yes Crystal, it has worked wonders!  So has a cool cloth on my belly with the hot water bottle on my lower back).  I'll probably check-in with my RE tomorrow to make sure everything seems okay and go from there.
