Thank Goodness For All the Prayers

I just want to tell you that "prayers" really do work! Aubrey has had a rough few days but they now have her out of the ICU area and on the antepartum floor. The babies appear to be growing good every day and they are now monitoring her only 3 times a day for an hour each time. She was having to lay flat on her back and not move for hours and believe me when I tell you that she has not been a very "happy" patient. I took the girls up to the hospital tonight and Morgan got to wheel her Mom around for a short ride in the wheelchair. She will be 28 weeks this Friday so we are getting closer to our 32 week goal. Thanks again for all the love and the prayers. They are felt by all of us! Oh and don't tell her I told you but her feet are so swollen that she looks like Fiona from Shrek :-))))

Twins update

Aubrey and I went to the Dr today and her BP was very high and she was diagnosed with definite eclampsia. She is now at Palmetto Richland in L and D where they are evalutating her. They gave her the shot today to strengthen the babys lungs and will give her another tomorrow. They are in hopes that they might be able to hold her off until 32 weeks( she is now 27) but they said they would take it one day at a time. Please say a prayer for her and our babies!

Twins News

Well Baby B "finally " decided to show HERSELF!!! Thats right.......2 little girls. I am thrilled. I love pink, you all know it so therefore I adore little girls. However we need all the prayers we can get. Aubrey and I spent most of the day at the hospital MAC( maternity assessment center) unit. Her BP was high and she gained alot of weight in 2 weeks which was mostly fluid so they wanted to check her for preeclampsia. Most of the blood test came back ok but she had to do a 24 hour urine test and go back tomorrow for more test. She is 27 weeks and needs to "cook" these little girlies a little longer. She is now officially on complete bedrest until the end of her pregnancy. She will also see a high risk Dr Friday. I will let you know how it goes but seriously, we need all your prayers.

Driving the Boat

Okay.......this is just wrong!!! I am so afraid to drive the boat and charles has done everything to teach me but I am just plain scared. He takes Gabbie and Morgan out and they just take the wheel like its nothing! I am so jealous! Oh well, I guess this summer I will try again.......
