Jakk are you excited??? Wow!!!!
Scan and appt with MFM went good. She said I am maxed on everything as far as the docs helping me keep baby in. So now it's just a wait and see. Still get shots weekly and will have next appt feb 26 when I'm 28 weeks
Baby scan was good. Baby is 1 lb 8 oz! And growing right on time so I'm thrilled that I won't need a lot of appts before feb 26 no poking and prodding for awhile.
Also stich is tight and closed... Cervix short of course but stitch should hopefully hold until 36 weeks.
She said I'm still at extreme high risk for early labor but hopefully I will get to the late 30s weeks.
As far as my pre e, she said as long as my bp stays normal, I should be okay but if it starts getting high, they will want to induce right away. But I think I'm good with bp because it was mild with dd1 too

And you are sticking to the bed rest so giving your little one the best possible chance xxHi ladies,
I developed pre-e at 28weeks with DS1, kept under control, until 35weeks when not even max dose meds were helping, liver tests started deteriorating at 35+5 and I delivered my son at 36weeks exactly.
Second pregnancy, BP started going high at 24weeks, max dose meds by 29weeks, admitted to hospital 32weeks severe pre-e and deranged liver tests at 32+6, very unwell mummy and baby, emergency c-sec that night under general anestetic and 2 days in HDU.
My OB says I have a much higher chance of getting it again and likely even earlier, so we have decided that our little family is now complete.
Hope all our pregnancies go well

No I wish I was 
my little girl is 6months old now, for being early she's came on great and is the perfect baby, so much better than my DS! I'd have another tomorrow if I could but my OB says with my history of pre e and having chronic high blood pressure now makes it at least a 90% chance of getting pre-e again and much worse and likely delivery before 30weeks and again a very sick mummy.
I just feel it very unfair for another baby to go through that and also for my own two to run the risk of losing their mummy!
I have one of each now and I've accepted we're done
I have just been reading your previous threads and you have gone through so much this past year!! Got everything crossed for you that your little one stays put in there until fully ready x

Awww thank you so much
I understand your decision because that is what I have been leading towards too. I just can't imagine going through this again with all of the same risks I always wanted four but maybe my path is supposed to be like this. Ill have two living healthy babies after this hopefully and one beautiful guardian angel watching us always. Hubby and I are content with having just three kids. We both have gone through so much and can accept if this is our last child.
Your baby girl is definitely a fighter! she's going to be so active and healthy when she gets older! I applaud you for getting through your pregnancies so strongly. I pray that my pre e just stays mild... I want my baby in here as long as possible!
