26 weeks!

WE ARE SO THANKFUL THAT WE HAVE MADE IT ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER WEEK. YESTERDAY WE HAD TO WAIT ALL DAY FOR A SONOGRAM AND FINALLY SAW THE SPECIALIST AROUND 8 O'CLOCK. THIS IS SO EXCITING TO WRITE : THE DR. SAW MORE FLUID THAN HE'S EVER SEEN AROUND MAGGIE! HOW THIS IS POSSIBLE, WELL, SURELY IT IS AN ANSWER TO PRAYER. AND ANOTHER EXCITING THING IS THAT LAST WEEK MAGGIE WAS HORIZONTAL AND I WAS TOLD THAT I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE A C SECTION BECAUSE WITH NO FLUID IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR HER TO FLIP AND GET IN THE RIGHT POSITION FOR A NORMAL DELIVERY. I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE A C-SECTION BUT I AM JUST SO AMAZED THAT SHE HAD ENOUGH FLUID TO MOVE AROUND- ONCE AGAIN PROVING EVERYONE WRONG.

SO THAT IS ALL GREAT NEWS. GOD IS SO GOOD ABD HAS GIVEN US MORE HOPE AFTER SUCH A SCARY 24 HOURS . THERE IS STILL A LOT OF CONCERN AS I AM STILL BLEEDING ALTHOUGH IT IS MUCH LESS THAN BEFORE. THE DR. IS HOPING THAT IT IS FROM THE BABY DOING HER GYMNASTICS ROUTINE INSIDE ME, SHE COULD HAVE SCRAPED THE LINING OF THE UTERUS IN TGE PROCESS (SORRY IF TMI!). BUT THE OTHER MORE SCARIER THING IT COULD BE IS THE START OF A PLACENTAL ABRUPTION, WHICH IS ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS THINGS THAT CAN OCCUR IN PREGNANCY.


RIGHT NOW WE ARE PRAYING FOR THE BLEEDING TO STOP AND FOR NO PLACENTAL ABRUPTION. AND FOR MAGGIE TO STAY WHERE SHE IS! IT SEEMS THE POSITION SHE IS IN IS ACTING  AS THAT PLUG WE HAD BEEN PRAYING FOR, KEEPING ALL THAT FLUID AROUND HER.

  5. Lee, I sent you a package that you should get today. I hope it lifts your spirits and brings you a smile. I stuck in some stuff to keep Justin and ML occupied while they are visiting too, in case you need your rest (and you do!). Thinking of you always. xoxo Tracy
