I saw the Dr. this morning so I figured it was time for another update. Last Friday I was worried that I was leaking fluids so we went to the hospital around 10:00 on Friday night to check. Thankfully, I was definitely not leaking fluids at all so that is all safe. We did a quick ultrasound and found out that my fluid was a 14! Wohoo! It was so nice to have the rest of the weekend and not worry.
Today at the Dr. we did another ultrasound and my fluids had dropped back down to a 6.9. Above a 5 which is good, but below a 10, which is not very good at all. We did a stress test on the baby and he is just fine. His heartbeat is strong and active so we know that he is safe and happy. And his movement is absolutely wonderful...I feel like there is a football game going on in my stomach!
The Dr. sent me home on semi-bedrest (I can't really do much of anything, but I don't have to actually lay in bed all day long) with the instructions to come back and see him on Thursday.
Once again I am just so grateful for an OB doctor that I know cares about me specifically and who I can trust completely. I know that both me, and the baby are in very, very safe hands.
Please keep us in your prayers, I have had a blessing that says everything will be fine and I have faith in that blessings and in the things Heavenly Father promises us. I know that my baby is special to him and that I am special to him, nothing is going to happen that shouldn't happen.
Thank you also to so many of you who have offered to help me with Hudson, help me around the house and bring meals. And thank you to those who have sent me quick messages of encouragement and love. I feel so supported and cared about. It is absolutely wonderful.
This made me cry. Thank you for your testimony of blessings. I have been thinking about my own blessings I've been given about my babies- I really appreciate you sharing your faith! love you
