Well, since I'll be 34 weeks on Thursday, my MFM ordered another Fetal MRI this week (Wednesday I think). We're going to check out baby's lungs again and see how they've developed since the last MRI (which was around 29 weeks) and that will help us determine our next 'goal' or steps forward at this point.... From the sounds of it, MFM isn't going to let me go too far past 37 weeks (so another 3.5 weeks) and we'll be having a May baby.
Day 4 in the hospital: I have JUST discovered that this place has SONIC ICE! Maybe not directly from Sonic, but it's those same delicious little nuggets of frozen goodness!! How did I miss this for three days?!?!

You truly do have a great positive attitude throughout all you're going through.. T&P for you. Did they have anything else to say about your platelets?
I'm meeting with the high risk specialists tomorrow. They will do an ultrasound, check over my charts, and consult with my doctor. They could say deliver now or give us to the end of the week. We will have a clearer picture of what will happen tomorrow.
My blood pressures were consistenly higher today, with a high reading and a lower-ish reading. If they keep trending high, then the nurses are instructed to call my doctor immediately.
Nervous for tomorrow, yet somewhat excited to have a game plan and hopefully a better idea of what to expect. I don't think of questions to ask my doctor until after he leaves, so hopefully I'll remember to ask stuff tomorrow.

Lots of good thoughts for you tomorrow.
One of my best friends developed full blow preclampsia at 34 weeks with her son - emergency c-section kind of full blown. If you have any questions, or start getting worried, or anything happens tomorrow where you want to talk to someone, I'll pass on her information to you and let her know your story.
