I was just enrolled in a research study. They're trying to get more info on why prematurity and stillbirth happen. They will be piggy backing off of labs already being ordered and done on Tiffany and I. They'll get her placenta, cord, first diaper, etc.
Sounds interesting! Will they keep you updated with the findings, etc?
Hang in there. I was at the hospital for six hours and I can't imagine being there for days like you are. You're such a trooper!
No. I'm sure whenever they publish it I could probably look it up online and see the overview of it. They will grow out her cell line but if they find any genetic abnormalities they won't be able to tell us since everything is super anonymous and is only identified by a number once it leaves my room basically.
There's a HUGE difference between being in an ER and being in a (currently and better freaking stay that way) private room in a high risk ob department. I hope your stone passes quickly.
OMG you are a trooper. I would lose my shit if I had to lie naseous in a hospital fighting contractions for weeks on end.
Thank you. I do. I have good and bad days. Days where I feel like I can totally do this and days where I want to give up. These contractions aren't bad. The ones on Tuesday were. It was brutal. It takes a lot of pain to make me cry and I cried several times on Tuesday.
