I got so tied up in the excitement of the weekend and my many guest that I forgot to celebrate 32 with you! Happy 32 Weeks my little WildThings! A huge milestone for lung development and brain development!
I am now actually 32weeks & 5days!! Lots of things have already happened this week and lots of things left on the agenda. Monday was another wild and crazy day. I had some normal pregnancy issues (so they tell me) that are TMI for the whole world to read about, but did lead to extra test and extra evaluations. They did a platelet count that showed my numbers are down; one of those things that isn’t a big deal yet but need to keep an extra eye on it. We also had a regular sonogram done to check movement, heart beats, Doppler readings, livers, etc. Everything looked great and babies are practicing breathing more and more, but Kimber’s Doppler number was slightly elevated, again one of those things they just keep an eye on.
Tomorrow is another big day! They will do a more intensive sonogram to check the normal things plus measure and weigh my little ones. I FEEL like they have doubled in size, but I’m hoping for a pound a piece; which would take them to 4 pounds each! They will also check my platelet count again.
We have a new game plan: if I get to 34 weeks and am not dilated to certain point and babies still look great then I will be released to go home and start seeing my own doctor again. Cole and I both had mixed emotions of this in the beginning. We have become comfortable and confident in the care we have received and the caregivers who provided it. On the other hand I am SO ready to see my fur babies, sleep in my own bed, and of course have babies in a hospital closer to home! I’m sure it will be an emotional day, but for now we celebrate 32! What is meant to be will be!
