So I saw Alicia's post alluding to a FB update, and I have to know what's going on. I'm assuming she's in labor, but I really hope not. I haven't stopped praying for them since this whole thing started.
This is the first time I have ever wanted FB, even though I'm not cool enough to be in the group.

I'm just glad they made it to 24 weeks. 3 babies in my family have been born at 24 weeks and all are fine today. It gives me hope even though I know that isn't always the case. My heart is just breaking for them.

I was honestly shocked when Alicia posted what she did. I had no idea she was friends with anyone close to ETS, since she's gotten slammed on BOTB in the past. And since she knew wee is the official contact.
ETS put out on FB that any information that helps people pray for her/the babies is ok and that she trusts our judgement. That being said, I've been letting Wee update because it allowed a consistent source of information. However, since something has already been said and people are (obviously and for good reason) worried, I'm going to tell you what I know.
(Honestly I don't know what Wee has already said because I've not been reading the updates as I've gotten them already so I apologize if I'm repeating). The Mag caused fluid to build up so they had to take her off of it. The coughing (from the fluid) has brought up a variety of issues (including increased pressure and baby a moving downwards again). Additionally, the contractions have started up again since she's been taken off the meds. Her team gave her a list of "If X happens, then we have to do an immediate c/s and deliver both babies" and right now, she's staring back down the blade of the knife again.
Both babies are big for their GA, she's made it 24 weeks and they have both doses of the steroid shots so these are all good things. However, as we all know, 24 weekers have an uphill battle ahead of them so as I've been saying on FB: "Every second, every minute, every hour, every day counts".
She's trying her best to relax and stay focused, but appreciates the thoughts and the prayers. She knows she's got half the world praying for her and those fighters.
(Wee, I'm sorry if I stepped on your toes, but I know that people are worried and praying)
