Well, I have been at home for a full week now and things are going well overall. They adjusted my medicine yesterday to a slow release form. I am still taking the same dosage, just twice a day instead of 6 times a day. It is great not to have to get up in the middle of the night to take the meds.
Overall, things have gone will with the home monitoring. I have had 3 or 4 times where my contractions have been too high and I have had to monitor again. I had one time with 11 and one time with 8 in the hour. Other times I have had only one. I am able to feel the bigger ones-but still can't tell how the hour has gone until the nurse calls with the report.
My mother made it in from Massachusetts and will be here until Monday. She has made and frozen meals and reorganized my kitchen for me-life is good!
The babies are moving more and more and I really think we have a future martial artist or soccer player in there!
I will continue to go to be checked each week to make sure the meds they have me on are not decreasing the fluid around the babies.

Hi Wendy,
You don't know me, but I found your site while looking on Dr. Troffater's website. I was a patient of Dr. T back in Sept with my twin pregnancy. Had a cerclage at 20 weeks, then another one at 22 weeks. Stayed on high risk unit at GMH for 11 weeks, but delivered healthy babies at 36 weeks. The high risk docs are awesome and I wouldn't have carried my twins so long without them. I had every complication there could have been, but it all worked out. Keep your spirits us!
Wendy and Brent,
Thanks for all your updates. Glad to hear that all is going pretty good. I bet it was a big help to have your mom down. Take care.
Love, Beth
Hi Wendy!
I just wanted to let you know that I was thinking about you. I'm so glad to hear that you are doing much better and that the babies are doing well. I have a special surprise for them direct from Disney World! :)
Hope to see you soon--can't wait for those babies! :)
Love,
