New Sonogram Pictures and Bed Rest update...

Unfortuantely, the following pictures represent my new day time home... yes, that is right, I have been restricted to bed rest for the next 7 weeks! Yuck... but it is definitely better than having our babies arrive early. So, we are at 28 weeks and we have to make it to 35 weeks on bed rest before they will release me to a normal activity level again. Until then, you can find me parked on my living room couch! Good thing I already work at home, makes the work transition quite easy!




Below are the beautiful sonogram pictures of our babies that we got to enjoy before finding out my cervix had shortened 2 cm... after we were admitted to the hospital only to find out I was having contractions every 2 minutes. They gave me a shot to stop them and kept me overnight until they could schedule the FFN test to test for the FFN protein on the cervix (a positive outcome increases the chance you will go into labor within the next 2 weeks). Luckily it came back negative so I got to go home on bed rest rather than stay in the hospital on bed rest. Both stink, but I would definitely rather be at home for the next 7 weeks. Keep us in your prayers that my cervix stays where it is and that my 2 week FFN tests don't come back positive.

Sorry to hear about the bedrest, but so happy to hear of the negative FFN test! I can't believe you are 28 weeks now!!! Not much longer until you get to meet your sweet babies!!!
