Baby is still okay. We heard the heartbeat via doppler for the first time today. The doctor didn't give us the beats per minute, but it was fast and steady. Still no concrete reason for the blood...so I've been instructed to call the nurse each time it happens and both the baby and I will continue to be checked after each occurrence.
While my peanut baby is resting safely in my uterus, Isla is up in her room screaming and banging her head on the door. Nap time isn't going over well lately. In the evenings, Isla has learned that if she screams enough, her daddy will take her into our bed and watch a cartoon with her while they snuggle and drink milk. Now Isla will throw complete tantrums anytime she is in her room in hopes someone will open the door and free her. And I will not do it. Call me the bad mama, but I cannot let Isla think that throwing a tantrum will give her what she wants. It's frustrating that Andy and I do not agree on this. Ohhh, it suddenly just got quiet up there. I guess she either fell asleep or knocked herself out with all of that head banging.
Goodness, Isla alone can be a handful. I cannot imagine what my life will be like when my little peanut is born in roughly 28 weeks :)

Don't give in, Betsy! Isla will figure out that you're not going to "rescue" her. She's a smart girl :) When Lincoln goes to bed when I'm not home, he doesn't say a peep, but when I'm home, he yells "Mama, mama, mama..." over and over again because he knows I'll eventually go in to see what he wants. I'm a sucker for when he says "Hold me." Isla will eventually figure out that when Andy's not around that you mean business and naps won't be so stressful :) Hang in there!
Oh gosh...I'm thankful Isla can't put 2 words together yet. If she said "hold me" I think my heart would completely melt.
