Unfortunately, I was put in the hospital last Thursday and it doesn't look like I'll be leaving before the baby is delivered. My BP had started to creep and I have a little protein. I had severe pre-eclampsia with my first and have since had a c-section and VBAC with hemmorhage. Add to that the already scheduled c-section and the two previous HR accelerations and my OB wants to play it safe. My OB has 7 children, so he knows sending me home and telling me to rest probably wouldn't keep my BP low enough. Physically, I'm doing well, but metally it's starting to get to me.

Please pray that I can get through this without getting too down and I'll have a safe delivery. Also, that my DH, girls and parents do well without me there. My DH has been doing great, but I worry my Mom will get to worn out. Thank you.

Praying for you, Bethany. I hope you find peace, and are able to let go of what's going on at home, and just relax and take care of yourself and bubs.

You're due on my due date!
Prayers, and when will they do the c-section? You are considered full-term now right?

Prayer for you!!! I know it's tough not being at home with your dc, but just think how neat it is that they have this time with grandparents! I'll pray for your mom to have plenty of energy and to not get worn out with the activities of your littles. And most especially for you, Bethany, and your precious babe; for safe and healthy delivery for you both with a fast recovery for you!!

God Bless,
Stacy in MI
