Something I haven’t discussed here much…

Are my husband’s health problems. The long and short of it is that he was born with a defect in which caused is bladder to back up and kill off his kidneys. He received his first transplant (from his mother) at 16, and that lasted him until he was 21 – he has been on hemo-dialysis ever [...]

Some good news, and some bad news…

The good news is that the babies are still doing OK and my cervix is still closed.
The bad news? Those pains I have been feeling DID turn out to be contractions. So now I am on bedrest and have been put on Terbutaline (Brethine) to calm everything down in there. The doctor said that he [...]

We ended up in the ER last night…

Sometime after that last post I started having gushes of blood. The cramping wasn’t too bad, it was mostly only when I was up and moving around – but the blood was scaring me and some of it was bright red.

Some Bad News

I just found out that we lost one of the babies.
My next ultrasound was set for Wednesday, but on Sunday I spent all day in bed with a feeling of “pressure” in my uterus and some shooting pains. I almost went to the ER, but I couldn’t decide if they were just really bad gas [...]
