The little trip downstairs - Mini update #10

On the eve of 29 weeks gestation, Joanna made a little trip downstairs to labour and delvery. Things seemed to be a little irritated, and as a result they are monitoring her a little more closely. It was a long night as the babies were doing thier best not to cooperate with the heart rate monitoring(thier fine though), so there was a lot of adjusting and re-adjusting. The nurse made the mistake of giving me earplugs, shortly after I was sawing logs. The nurses are extremly attentive the prognosis seems good that Joanna could go back upstairs. But with everything baby there is always a chance that we are closer to 'the time'. Joanna also has a little infection flare up, so the menu calls for another round of antibiotics. The feeling is a lot better now than it was 6 weeks ago, and we are prayerfull that we can go another 6. She is resting now and making good use of the hospital issued earplugs. :-)

  1. that's a bit scary, but I'm glad that things were well and that you both were able to get some sleep in the end! :) I'm still praying for a few more weeks!
