I went in for my ultrasound and fluid check today. The baby is doing ok, she's up to about 4lbs. , her heart rate is ok, umbilical cord looks good, there were no spikes in her cerebral blood flow, but my fluid is now down to 6.1. The doc gave me the option of going into the hospital for bedrest and have them hook me up to IV fluids, or going home since there is so much to get ready for and stay on bed rest and drink a ridiculous amount of fluids until Thursdays appointment. If I go down to 5 I have to be delivered immediately so I will most likely check into the hospital Thursday night or Friday morning. Right now I just have a huge headache from all the info.

I am so happy that your little girl is looking good. I am sorry about the bedrest and pushing fluids, but you are a good mommy for doing what is right for your kiddos. That is a lot to handle, how many weeks along are you?
Wow...I am really glad the baby is doing well though! Is the low fluid related to having Fifths Disease? Please rest up! I know there is a lot to do at home, but you can do it after the baby. Are you having a c-section or being induced? I'll be thinking of you!!
they will check my progress tomorrow (33 weeks) and will decide if I can be induced or if I will need a C section
Ugh. Been thinking about you this week. Glad to hear the little bean is doing well. I know it's hard, but try not to stress too much. The boys will survive and soon enough she'll be here.
