hello girls,
sorry i have not been around n updated, couldnt wait to get to my laptop so i could let u all know wut is going on. friday i had a visit with doc n i was already anticipating she would admit me cause she said that the previous week plus i felt something was going on since i was having alot of rectum pressure. when she examined me she could see that i was having contractions so she sent me straight to the hospital to labor n delivery, i was so scared cause i couldnt feel the contractions just the pressure. mom was with me n oh was at work so i was grateful to not be alone. when i got there i was sent straight up to l&d, my doc set that up cause she didnt want me waiting, they put me in a rm n started to hook me up to all kinds of machines, the monitors to check contractions n baby's hb, they started me on magnesium to stop contractions n also gave me the steroid shots to mature her lungs in case she had to be delivered, i was to be monitored for 24 hrs to see how things go, in that time i was not allowed to get up at all, it was hell not knowing wut would happen, i cried n tried my best not to get to stressed so my baby wouldnt feel it, thank the Lord above the meds worked n the pressure was relieved, i prayed n asked God to please give me a chance to save my baby, to take me n i will give her my breath, i told Him i will never give up on my little girl n always put her 1st in my life, i told Him i will never loose my faith in Him n my baby n i put this in his hands, we are still here holding strong thank u Father!! we are stable n have been transferred to post partum for now, docs said i can expect to be here indefinitely n they will try everything in their power to stop contractions if need be n save my baby, im on really strick bedrest since i basically do not have much cervix left, only allowed to get up very briefly for bthrm breaks, they have a shower chair in the shower so they allow me a 5 mins shower, i feel comfortable here because at least i am somewhere where they can help save my baby n also i do not have to get up here. i have my own private rm, even have a lil fridge so i can have my snacks, i am feeling much better now, i am trying my best with everything inside me to remain positive n never give up my faith, God will continue to bring us through this, my family have been so supportive, i have so many praying for us n encouraging me, i feel so blessed even with the odds, something is telling me that everything will work out, i am praying now to get to 28 weeks since the odds are 90% survival at that point, then we can go from there, right now odds are only 50% with 80% complications, i do not want to see my baby suffer so i dont feel safe yet but at least at 28 weeks i know she will make it, especially since she had those steroid shots n also they said the magnesium helps with the brain development, i know they wont release me b4 28 weeks so that makes me feel better also, continue to pray for me ladies, we are gonna make it!! btw, baby fayth is doing so well growing n kicking, she lets mommy know she is still there fighting n happy n her space
