Making the Best of Bed Rest / Re: Monday Roll Call for June 11
« on: June 11, 2012 at 11:28 AM »
Today I am 33+0 days with twin boys. In the hospital for almost 11 weeks now because of short cervix. Most of the time I was at 10mm going down to 7mm, after the 30st week I suddenly had 17mm. Wow. Next check tomorrow. I am looking forward to it.
Nifedipine got cut to 1 piece per day, additionally I take more magnesium. No serious contractions yet.
In the womens/mother hospital I am on the current top list of the longest women-who-spent-their-time-lying-here. My prize are active healthy fetus boys whose moves I can see and feel - pretty amazing. Also most of the nurses and doctors know me now and we have chit-chats and what not. I am getting sick of the hospital food though, although it is generally good and changes every 4 weeks.
But here are the good news: I might be able to go home at 34+0. My belly is already huge and heavy. Whew. Wonder how things will be at home. We just moved (without me) and not all things are unpacked yet.
