33w6d Hanging in There
By Starmama14 » Posted Aug. 22, 2016 9:33am - 629 views - 11 comments
Just thought I would write an update while I am thinking of it. As the title of my JE states, I am hanging in there. I have not had a significant bleed since last Saturday (knock on wood)...I am sure I just jinxed myself by typing that though. Some days are better for me than others. Even though I have a pretty good routine going and have lots of visitors, there are times that time seems to drag so bad. I struggle with wanting to get the hell out of here but then knowing I need to keep this baby safely growing for awhile yet. I can't believe I have been here for two weeks all ready!!
Overall, baby is doing well. However, at last week's growth ultrasound baby hadn't shown any growth since the ultrasound I had the week before. That could be nothing or it could mean my placenta is compromised enough that baby isn't getting enough from me to help it grow :(. I have another growth ultrasound on Wednesday and if there's no growth again, baby will be delivered this week. I am hoping because I haven't had any big bleeds baby will have had the chance to get some needed nutrients and will have grown some!
That's about all for now! Hope everyone else is doing well :)
