I have to admit I am having a hard time - I have alot of anxiety - I am just so scared something bad is going to happen - I just do not want to end up in the hospital again before January. I had a hemo appointment today and an OB appointment. My hemo appointment went well - my blood pressure was good and my bloodwork came back good. I do not have to go back for 5 weeks - I will be 32 weeks by then and be switching over the heperin. At 32 weeks I will have to start going to the hemo every week. I got all my of my medications refilled as well.
I was very nervous about my OB appointment because of what happened last week. It went well though - my belly is measuring properly and my weight is good at 144 - total of 16 pounds so far of weight gain. The heartrate was good. They have decided that at 28 weeks I will start getting non-stress tests every week - until then I will be going to the OB every week. The told me to hold off on my glucose test for two more weeks - because last week they gave me the shots to help mature Colin's lungs and that can sometimes mess up the glucose results.
I am glad they are keeping such a good eye on me and Colin - but it is really stressful. I just want January to be here already. I know how blessed I am and how lucky I am to be pregnant.

It's tough to want to get pregnant so badly and then, throughout the pregnancy, deal with scares and tension.
I hope January gets here quickly for you.
just keep thinking you are past V-day! I stressed every. single. day. and even as we were riding to the hospital I was worried. Yes, of course, you are lucky to be PG, but really the end result is a baby and everyone who has had a loss understands how fragile that little life is.
But, I have faith that little Colin is going to amaze us and I can't wait to watch him grow up!
