Well I'm at the hospital being induced.
Not too happy about being induced. But I am however very excited about seeing my daughter soon!

 

[AuntBug]

Hope it goes quick and smooth for you Southerngal! Can't wait to see pics of your little girl.

 

[lisaf]

good luck! Sorry about the induction.. hope it goes well!

 

[AuntBug]

Well I had my scan this morning and it didn't go as well as we'd hoped. LO is still TINY! Most measurements are under the 1 percentile. But more concerning is we don't have good blood flow in the cord - absent end diastolic blood flow. But fluids are great, she's moving like mad and all organs look good.

So now it's a waiting game. Every week we get is a win, hopefully she stays this healthy for a while longer. I'm trying to wrap my head around having a premie.

[lisaf]

have any of you girls gotten your insurance to pay for a breastpump? Mine said they will but the list they gave me of 'in network' providers of durable medical equipment do not look like they sell breastpumps! I really don't want to call them all and find out...

 

[AuntBug]

Congrats Southerngal!

Welcome to team bbygurl!

Lisa- having a good quality breast pump is so worth the hassle!

Congrats southern!

AuntBug- go to the preemie section of BnB and read up on what to expect. for me it made a huge difference so I wasn't so freaked out by all the equipment and terminology. Also, and I can't stress this enough, up your protein levels by TONS! the more weight you can help yoour baby put on, the better off they will be when born

Thanks, I'll check it out tonight. I'm at least finally keeping stuff down with zofran, but I still throw up meat Im drinking tons of milk and eating nuts, beans and any other protien sub.

Thank you! I so happy to be on team

congrats bbygurl!!!!

 

[lisaf]

congrats on team pink!

heyyady - well it turns out I have to get a doctor to say its medically necessary (not very optimistic on that happening) and then they'll only reimburse up to $150 I know every penny helps but I'm just not sure its worth the hassle.. especially since I don't know if my lactation services and parts I was given by the hospital took away from that $150 or not... plus my medication issue may make it not worth buying and I may just keep renting.
