Update

Quick update. Well it has been a week and I am still in the hospital. Had an amnio yesterday to see if Gracies lungs were developed and they poked me three times ( ouch) and were not able to find a pocket of fluid large enough to take fluid out without risk to hitting Gracie with the needle. She is 8 pounds already so there is no way they are gonna let me wait until the 10th for the C section. I am VERY uncomfortable and having problems with my blood sugar crashing due to vomiting. UGH. SIck of needles for insulin, for bllod checks for amnios, and for IVS!!!!!!!!!! Yesterday I had myself a good cry fest because I miss my kids so much. Hopefully today we will have some answers and know what is going on. Meanwhile. Gracie is doing wonderful and extremely active. She just likes to kick and put pressure on my siatica and it makes my legs numb out on me. Sleeping is next to impossible. Hopefully the next time I write it will be about Gracie's arrival. Thank you so much for your prayers. It means the word to me.

Jennifer...I am so thinking about you! I have been in a manner, where you are right now...When I was pregnant with the twins, I had a 5 year old and a 3 year old...and got put into the hospital for 5 1/2 weeks. It was awful! I will admit 3 years later, I don't remember much of it and my kids are no worse for the wear...DON"T get me wrong, I am not belittling your feelings..it is SO SO SO hard. I just want you to know there seem to be no long term effects on the children.
Love you from Tennessee!!!! XOXOXO
