Heading to L&D! No one told me there would be THIS much water
If you can spare a few good thoughts and prayers for the twins and I, we would be so grateful!
1055- 4cm. They want to start a mag. drip to keep me pregnant another week. Contracting every 3-5 mins right now. I will be here in the hospital until the babies are born. More updates as things progress!
1118- No mag! Waiting to see my regular doc to make a plan. Contrax getting stronger, so I'm not sure how much longer they can wait to try and intervene.
1407- declining cervical checks, so not sure about progress. Contracting pretty regularly and getting stronger. Doc is letting nature take its course. Everything still on track for a VBAC!
1731- still contracting and hanging in there!
2042- 7cm. Laboring in bed, on back, nothing to eat all day...far from ideal, but we're making it work so far. Babies are doing great! Mama is tired but feeling blessed to experience this
UPDATE- They are here!! George and Abigail were both born vaginally and are doing great
George was 4lbs 12oz, and Abigail 4lbs 7oz. George had a CPAP briefly, but is now on room air. Abigail is on 25% oxygen thru a nasal cannula. Both are in NICU in enclosed isolettes for tonight, but if they hold their stats we can hold/feed them tomorrow.
They are tiny, but absolutely perfect, and we are so in love. I cannot wait to snuggle them tomorrow...it is hard to be away from them tonight. More details and pics later...this Mama is going to try and catch a nap before I need to pump again.
Thank you for all the thoughts and prayers!!
