Generally, I'm trying to keep all my pregnancy stories and info on the TexasRed and the Twins page. Right now, though, that's becoming difficult.
I've just been diagnosed with preeclampsia by my OB and a specialist. Now they're trying to decide if it's mild enough to stay on bedrest at home (for the moment) or if they need to put me in the hospital for the foreseeable future (which would include the holidays).
I'm freaking out a little over this news, because I'm really not ready for the babies to arrive, or for a long hospital stay starting at the drop of a hat.
I'll keep you guys posted about how I'm doing. No idea yet whether I'll be posting here more frequently during bedrest (because I'll have so much more time to read) or less (because my wifi will be limited).
Fingers crossed that all of this will work out for the best in the long run.
{{Hugs}} and prayers for you and the wee ones!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't we all fantasize about being forced to stay still, and imagine all those books we would read and all that blogging we would do? But when the rubber meets the road, it just plain sucks? I wish you all the best, and will wisely (and obnoxiously) say that it is in God's hands at this point. Just relax as much as you can and let people wait on you. Because this will probably be the LAST time it will happen in a long time! Here's to healthy babies!
ReplyDeleteNot enjoying the newest development -- in the hospital for the foreseeable future (almost certainly until the babies arrive). Not the way I was hoping to spend the holidays.
ReplyDeleteHey, sending positive vibes, VDog told me about this & how she'd shared that she was in hospital for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes for healthy babies and to keep your bedrest-annoyance to a minimum.
Please let people know if there's anything we can do--I know folks like to help when they can.
Hope you can relax--the situation sounds stressful--sending relaxing vibes. ;-)
I'm so sorry. Hospital stays are no fun and I'm sure they are even less so during the holiday. Keeping you in my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteHope things are going well. Have a happy new year.
ReplyDeleteOh no! I was finally coming over here to comment and just saw that you were hospitalized weeks ago from the above comment. Just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you and hope that ALL of you are doing well!
