No more work for me...

Today was the first day I didn't go to work...and it's not because I'm not doing well...it's because another first grade student at my school has Fifth Disease!!!! Since I have the inclusion class, students from the "infected" class come into my classroom to learn several times a week. LOVELY!!!! I called my doctor and he insisted I come in to do a blood test. Basically I have been exposed to this disease and I'm praying that it has not affected our little angel Lucas! (if so, it can cause some problems with the baby) The doctor doesn't want me going back to work. I'll be 38 weeks in 2 days so he said that if he has to take the baby out, me and baby will be just fine. I have to wait up to a week for the blood test results..talk about stressful! I'm trying not to think about it too much, I'm pretty confident that my immune system has fought off the virus that was brought into the classroom and that it didn't affect my baby. Please say a prayer for me, Lucas, and my hubby Jeff (since he's very upset about this whole thing). We'll just have to wait and see. As for now, I will be spending my days home, relaxing, resting, and of course going to my parent's house to hang out (since they are our neighbors) :)
