Baby Update

Today's visit with Dr. Higby went great! He measured the important organs and body parts of both babies and everything looked normal. I was hooked up to the fetal stress monitor for the first time (where they monitor the baby's heart rates). This test will be performed every Tues. and Friday from here on out. Baby A weighs 2lbs. 3oz. and Baby B weighs 1 lb. 6oz. Dr. Higby is calling my OB/GYN this afternoon to set a C-section date for Week 32 which is only less than 4 weeks away! I'm experiencing a mixture of feelings from super excited to super freaked out! He reminded me that everything could change on any given date and to be ready for them to deliver prior to Week 32. That is, if they find an issue with their hearts, fluid levels, no growth, etc. on any weekly sonogram, they'd do an emergency C-section. He told me that there comes a time when the babies chances are better outside the womb than if they just stayed put. He doesn't want me to go past 32 weeks. The babies will be staying in the NICU for at least 4weeks, probably more like 6. I'm going to pack my hospital bag this week for sure! Please continue to pray for us all! Thanks!
