Thanks everyone! It's scary but everyone keeps reassuring me that we're in good shape for now. The doctors and nurses have been wonderful.
I'm doing okay. I've stopped randomly crying. I'll be honest that it took some time to get my head around the fact that everything has changed.
At this point I just want baby to stay inside for as long as possible.
Glad they are taking good care of you!
My Friday random/vent is that my OB office called me, I had a mini panic attack because OMG!HARMONYRESULTS!, I pick up the phone, and it's all static. I call them back, and they can't figure out who called me and they don't see my results yet. The office closes in 30 minutes, so it's unlikely I will hear anything today. Ugh, such a tease.
fayeelle Elena is a beautiful name! Hope things continue to progress well.
ellipsis - how frustrating! That is super strange, maybe it was just some sort of weird fluke? My doctor's office calls me with automated reminders for appointments, perhaps if yours has a system like that it just accidentally called you?

Well my appt went well, my placenta is no longer low lying so yay! And baby girl looked great, she was face planted into my cervix so they had to use the vag cam to get a view of my cervix. I'll be checking the patient portal for my GD results.
So I got weighed and only gained 3 lbs in the last 4 weeks, which was relieving after that initial big gain. Then the doctor came in, first time I've seen this one and of course she mentions that we need to watch my weight ugh! But I pointed out that there's only been a 3 lb gain since last time and she agreed that I am at a good pace now and was probably the 1st tri carb force feeding that packed it on in the beginning.
Oh and I got my tdap shot so that's out of the way. My next appt will be the start of the third tri!

Hugs Monica, hope your baby stays put.
My husband is out of town in China(for work) and I tried talking to him today and he was so drunk (it was Friday night there) he could hardly hold a conversation. I get that he is out of town with some coworker friends, but there is no reason he should be getting THAT drunk. *sigh* I'm just so over it and how unfair the baby making process is.

Monica Geller GL!! Hope things stay stable and you keep getting great care!
cheeseandcrackers I can totally relate. That sucks he has to be so far away AND incoherent. Hope you are able to do something nice for yourself tonight / this weekend...and when he gets home maybe see if you can score a little extra pampering :-D
Over here I'm all around happy that the weekend is here!! Work was nuts this week, and the threat of snow (followed by none) got folks even more worked up I think. Looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow and having an easy day. I need to finish registries but first that'll require sorting and cataloging all the donations and stuff we impulse bought. No plans Sunday besides watching the Super Bowl with friends!
I posted on ML on Tuesday morning but on Monday evening, my water broke. I'm 31 weeks. I've been in the hospital on bedrest since. I'm doing okay, but I'm so worried about baby. They've given me steroids to help baby's lungs, I'm on massive antibiotics to keep me infection free, and being monitored closely. All in all, really great care. Just not the way I envisioned the last part of my pregnancy going. They're trying to get me to 34 weeks.
How are you? I was thinking about you this morning. .....
