Hi all ... I made it to 30 weeks! Next stop .. 32 weeks... Then hopefully 34. Not going to lie this month long hospital stay is going to be very long .. But I have to do it. I am 30 weeks 1 day today, not contracting and the baby looks great on monitors. I'm still losing fluid .. But the dr says that's encouraging b/c it means I'm still making it hoping to get to at least 32 weeks!! Keep those prayers coming, please!!!
So glad you guys are doing so well!! Keep that baby cooking! I just turned 31 weeks today and on hospital bed rest for PTL, so I will be thinking of you two often!! Sending my prayers your way as well!!!!
Happy to see the good news on the update! I know it will be tough in the hospital for so long! Just know you have a ton of ladies supporting you from all over!! T&Ps!!!
Good to hear she's still in there. Lots of prayers she stays in as long as possible and does well when she comes out! How long can she safely stay in there without amniotic fluid?
My understanding is that the amniotic fluid will build back up. After my amnio, it took only a day or two and I was back to pre-amnio levels. I think it stops building after a certain point (maybe 34 weeks or so).
Wow, that's fascinating! I didn't realize that! Our bodies are so amazing. Thanks for the info, @BoraBoraBaby
SO glad to hear baby's still in there. Prayers for a few more weeks of baby cooking! I know it'll be tough to be in the hospital so long, but you can do it! Read lots of good books.
So glad you and the baby are doing great! Even though the long hospital stay can get a bit overwhelming I'm sure once your baby is in your arms it will be all worth it. Sending you prayers for your baby to stay as long as possible in there and for you to be safe.
