My last post I was 31 weeks and still on weekly visit to the specialist. At
my 33 week visit to the Lizzie had gained two pounds and her blood flow was
still good! This was such an answer to our prayers. Since I had a visit with my
regular ob the next week, he released me from coming back to him. At my 34 week
visit I measured 33 weeks which is still small but average. At my 35 week visit
Lizzie was measuring 31 weeks, not good and her movement was low, like it has
been, and she was not as reactive. Well this lands me in the hospital for two
days! After 24 hours of monitoring and a team of doctors trying to decide what
to do they came to the conclusion that Lizzie is border line everything. There
is nothing that shows she needs to come out, but at the same time if we leave
her in she needs extra attention! She is already getting extra attention and
this means we are in BIG TROUBLE!!!!The on call doctor at the hospital that
monitored me on today knows nothing about me. He does not know I am married to
a coalminer, that I was having a girl, or that my family is red headed. Well he
gives me an example about her oxygen compared to a coal miner trapped
underground, then proceeds to tell me this kind of behavior comes from red
headed girls! (He has a red headed daughter that I guess causes trouble) As of
right now we do not have a plan for Lizzie other than lots and lots of prayer.
I have a doctor’s appointment on Monday for another non stress test. Please
continue praying for us and for the doctors to make the right decisions.
