Update on me!!!

I shouldnt be having a sad face but i am!!

Went to see the docs today. They felt that my low albumin and low creatinine are nothing to worry about it. I lost it. Literally sobbing in pain and crying. No sleep, constantly throwing up, itching. The high risk ob took one look at me and said she wanted an amnio and would do what she could.


So the STAT test came back intermediate for lung maturity. not totally deveolped but not imature. They said there are so many factors and that they were doing the second test that compares two different levels of chemicals in the amniotic fluid. They said the results should be back tomorrow. As of right now I am scheduled for a csection on Weds 12/30. The HR OB was very nice and was talking to my hubby outside. She said she would do what she could and felt terrible for me. I have all these factors that are making me totally misreable but nothing together that 100% warrants being devlivered before 40 weeks. So as of right now i am scheduled for a section on 12/30.

Say a prayer nothing changes!!

Oh man take care...

(((((((((((Hugs))))))))))) You sound just miserable! I'm hoping nothing changes for you and that 12/30 is the date!!

my identical twin boys were delivered via c section when i was 37 weeks 5 days due to pre eclampsia, a couple of months prior i did have the 2 steriod shots just in case they arrived early..............we did not do a amnio, we just delivered and there lungs were great no nicu we all came home together

i guess they were small cause they came early but 6lbs and 5lbs 8oz  not so bad


good luck everything will work out

Well, lets try to look at the positives..even though I know you just want everyone to shut up so you can feel like **** in peace :)  Your baby is doing great...and the test Did NOT ssay he wasn't ready...it was borderline, so my suspicion is by Wednesday your little guy will be here and you will start to get some relief.  I understand how upsetting it is when you just feel like crap and you know what will fix it and they won't do it based on a test that is sometimes accurate and sometimes not.  I guess it is better to err on the side of caution.

I have all the faith in the world that you will be having a baby in less  than 48 hours :)  Hang on and try to keep your mind busy so you are no****ching the clock and concentrating on how ****ty you feel (I know, easier said than done).

Just know we are all here for you...you can rant, scream cry, and whatever else you need to do with us...because we oh so get it!

Take Care,

Let us know the results as soon as they are in...I have worn out my refresh button toay to see if there was any news on you.

I hope everything goes well. At least the 30th is not so far away but I know when you dont feel well its like forever!! Let us know!!

TOMORROW is the day!!!!

*hugs* I am sure today is going to eb rough but tomorrow you'll be holding Marshall in your arms and it'll all be a distant memory (or so they tell me lol - remind me of this when I am 37 weeks and miserable!)
