Sending prayers for you all. When is she offically due? If she does have to go the OB at Vandy, she will be in great hands I'm sure. Whatever they have to do they know they are doing it for the safety of her and the baby. Please keep us posted on her progress and you take care of yourself during this time too.

Congratulations on the good news that you did receive.   I'll keep your baby granddaughter and your family in my prayers.   I know how you're feeling in some small way, my daughter is 31 weeks pregnant and has had a lot of problems carrying a baby, and some problems with a short cervix which puts her in danger of early delivery AND had to go driving across country for her brother in law's funeral!  

So I've got all these tender little members of the next generation in my heart and prayers.

I will add your daughter and grandbaby to my prayer list. It sounds like your daughter is as determined as mine to be a mommy.

This is my daughter's 6th pregnancy. Her third ended at 25 weeks 5 days and Mattaeus lived for 19 hours. She lost each of the other 4 in the first trimester.

She was born with a condition called uterus dydelphus and has had 3 surgeries to try and enable her to carry a baby. In addition, Mattaeus was a "dirty" c section and she also had a fibroid the size of him removed at the same time. So she has a lot of scar tissue and a very fragile uterus.

Right now the plan is to do her c section May 16 as she will be 38 weeks at that time. If she starts having contractions before then, they will move up her delivery.

P E A C E - It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

Wow, your daughter really is determined.   I've never met anybody with uterus didelphys, but I know it does cause a lot of problems.  

I'll be praying for her until everything is in the clear.   I'm sure she'll be an awesome mommy.   I'm so sorry for the loss of little Mattaeus

This is also my daughter's 6th pregnancy.   Her problem is not as severe.   She has a genetic malformation, where some of her eggs would just never become a human being.   So miscarriages tend to be in the early stages.   She's gotten so she never even tells anybody she's pregnant until she gets past 10 weeks.   She does have a 3 year old son who is the apple of Nonna's eye.   I'm so excited about getting a granddaughter!   One of my sisters and I have also had miscarriages, so I think Sarah probably inherited the problem from me.

I hope you get your little May granddaughter without any further problems.   No drama!
