lauranicole91 glad to hear your appointment went well!! We got similar news about baby boy's kidneys but my dr. said that usually does resolve itself before birth
I am back on bed rest, also on Procardia and even more progesterone. My cervix is now opened to my cerclage and what I thought was just BH are actual contractions.
I am trying to read both boards and having trouble keeping up with everything. Hugs and T&Ps to everyone.
I am team no nursery, room sharing.
Prayers that those contrax stop and you undilate, keep cooking baby!
I am home at least for now but there is a high chance I will end up on hospital bed rest in 2 weeks. I am only 21 weeks so they won't do much till after 24 weeks. I think I am pretty much on it till the end. I am laying in bed watch OTH on Netflix. My mom may come out to California to help me out but the thought of her here gives me anxiety even though I want her to come help when the babies get here.
Take the help I know it sucks but you need that baby to keep baking as long as possible!!

Aww I'm sorry you're going through this Sending you lots of positive juju and hugs. Hope those babies stay cooking as long as possible, and you are allowed back on your feet soon.
Thanks! We saw it and wanted it immediately. It's from a Garage Sale. I think we paid $1,000 for everything. We will replace the mattress of course but otherwise it's sturdy as hell and so lovely.
That's also the paint color we'll be working with. We wanted neutral while it was just a room and now I love the color.
@**** I'm so sorry. I wouldn't wish bedrest on anyone. Hopefully you have lots to keep you busy and mind distracted. Have you watched Gossip Girl? That will suck weeks out of your life!
So I still have no answers from my appointment. He said we'll keep an eye on my contractions and we won't worry about my cervix for now. He said to continue bed rest. My anatomy scan will be Wednesday (finally) and hopefully everything will be okay with that.
He said to me that if the baby tried coming now they couldn't really stop it and the baby wouldn't survive. While I know this logically it still felt like a slap in the face to hear.
Lets just send you lots of vibes to keep that LO right where it belongs. Sorry for the continued bedrest. I'm sure that's not what you wanted to hear.

T&P to you! I'm really sorry he had to say that last part to you, I feel like it's something you already know but didn't need a reminder of. Hopefully we can keep your little one cooking longer and you have an amazing anatomy scan on Wednesday. We're all here to help keep you sane while you wait until then!

Aww beeorange that was kind of harsh for them to word it like that. Even if that would be their course of action, I feel like there are more delicate ways to put it. Rest up and don't let bed rest doesn't send you to the looney bin out of boredom. *hugs!*

This! Hugs! It is like you go in knowing this information doesn't make it any easier to hear it.
I think medical professionals just forget themselves sometimes. They think so bluntly and go with the facts in their mind they are just giving you all the information, in your mind they are being an asshole. Compassion and a warmer bedside manner goes such a long way.

But he could look at your cervix and be ready to do a cerclage or something! I can't believe he's not worried about your cervix. I know it's too soon to help a babe out right now but... :/ Hugs girl

I have been feeling pretty positive about it lately until yesterday I realized most of the stories I hear about are with only 1 kidney...With our son it's both of his kidneys so I'm starting to worry more. I have a check up Monday and plan on asking about that. Hopefully she will ease my mind!
beeorange I'm so sorry you didn't get the news you were hoping for, and especially for the harsh comment from the doctor! You and LO are in my T&P. FX for the A/S too. ((hugs)) to you!
