They are sending us to San Antonio in the morning to be admitted to the hospital and receive another steroid shot to try to give Matthew's lungs a boost. It looks like he will be delivered at a moments notice this coming week as he has gone downhill from my appt we had on Monday. He is showing signs of Ascities ( fluid around the abdomen) and early signs of Hydrops. I am tearful, but trusting. My dh will be with me and my dc wil be here with my friend Jess until grandparents can arrive tomorrow driving in from GA. KC will update when we know more, please keep this darling baby boy in your prayers. They were trying to get us to 32 weeks, but now that doesn't look hopeful.
