Making Progress

Well, although the had to up the dosage, the pump seems to be working. Today the High Risk group turned my care back over to my regular OB. So, that is good news. There was actually some talk of letting me go home. But, Brent and I decied that was not a god idea and my OB agreed that it is just safer to stay here.

I had been put back on IV fluids the last few days, but they stopped those today. So, it looks like I might get out of this hospital gown into my own clothes! Every little thing helps. If I am still here, we have another ultrasound scheduled for next Monday. At that time, they will check the kids' growth. Several people have asked for updated pictures. The have all been camera shy the last several ultrasounds. I am hoping to get some pictures next week that I can post. They say the bigger they are, the harder it is to get a good profile shot.

Brent and I will probably schedule a tour of the NICU in the next few days. The strongly suggest checking it out. I was too scared before. But, when I talked to my Dr. today, she said it may be reassuring because there would be a lot of babies in there that were born before 28 weeks.

It is hard to believe that tomorrow will be two weeks since we got here. Let's all keep praying that we are here for at least another two!
