Well yesterday I was sent to the maternity ward at the hospital b/c I started having contractions..I was scared to death as to what they would tell me. At this point the Dr. said he cannot give me any medicine to stop my contractions b/c If he gave it now he would only need to give it again in 2 weeks, and now the baby isn't viable and in 2 weeks he will not be viable as well...His chances will be greater between 22 and 23 weeks, and at that point Doc said he will be more proactive at saving him and administering the medicine. He said at that point he should only have to give me medicine to stop labor once b/c I could possibly deliver him. The medicine that stops labor actually is not safe at all for mom, he said that he has actually seen women go into ICU b/c of results from the medicine so that is why at all possible he wants to use it only once on us. At 22 weeks he also told me they could hospitalize me until Jack comes.
My mom was offering me and Emmy to come to BR. for a few weeks, until the baby is viable and the Doc will put me in the hospital, just so I literally don't have to do anything and can be on complete bed rest. Jason works so much bless his heart and he is not home alot of the time, so the help with Emmy is really needed, plus these gosh darn stairs in my house are not easy to deal with, and then explaining to a 3 yr. old that mommy can never go upstairs or in her room or get anything up there for her is hard for her to understand. (believe me i've extensively tried to explain, lol)
We were planning to move on May 18th to a 3bdrm. house on post we have movers set up to pack us and move us, b/c of the whole bedrest thing, I really hate to leave all that on Jason, so we may end up having to push or move back the move even though it would be nice for me to come home to NO stairs..(yes, the new house is 1 story) Time will tell what we will do with this situation.
At least if I went to my parents I would have all the help in the world, Emmy would as well and Jason wouldn't have to worry when he leaves for a day or two or week if his wife and baby boy were okay.
Ulimately I'll do whatever it takes to save my son, I'll just have to be away from my hubby for a few weeks.. :(
Please continue to pray..
With Love~Lendie
