moxy I feel like we are experiencing pregnancy in very similar ways. I had the previa like you have AND I have also been diagnosed with IUGR at 28 weeks. I will be on hospital bed rest until I deliver also. You can do this momma. Stay strong and just trust your doctors to do the best they can. I'll be praying for you.
We go for a new blood flow study in the am to see where we are at. So far he has the reverse blood flow in the ductus venosus which basically means the blood goes to his heart and then rushes back into the artery going toward the liver. It's really a hour by hour day by day thing right now.
Currently we have been upgraded to only being monitored 1x every 4 hours for an hour and that's by my choice. They said every 8 but when things start to decline I've been told it will happen very rapidly and it scares the shit out me to go 8 hours.
We've met with the neonatal team and gone to the nicu and say a baby about the same GA as what Leo will be. It was both as awe striking and terrible as you can imagine.
The first goal was to make it today at 530 for the steroids to take full effect.. Next goal is to make it past tomorrow and then go to Saturday which would make 26 weeks. Our stretch goal is 28 weeks so 20 more days.

T&P's that you and Leo get to 26 and then 28 weeks! Thanks for taking the time to update. So sorry that this is happening. You have an older kiddo yes? I hope you get to see him or her. Hugs to you.
