So happy for you & the boys, I don't have the words! Oh and your DH!!
That clot!! I can't imagine. After delivering last pregnancy I came home and two days later I passed what I thought was a huge clot, it was maybe half the size of a grapefruit. Oh the joys of pregnancy.
Thank you all for checking in!
I saw my OB yesterday and my MFM today. Things are looking a lot better! I haven't been bleeding since Monday, I'm just spotting a tiny bit when I pee.
My MFM thinks that the huge clot I passed on Sunday, might have been causing most of the bleeding, in addition to the placenta abruption. Guys, the clot was huge. I'm sorry if you have a light stomach, don't read the next line. The clot was the size of a grapefruit, I felt my vagina open up, and it slowly came out. I think I might need therapy to get over it. Not kidding.
Anyway- the boys still look good, they are happy, and growing, and that's all I can ask of them.
My cervix is now measuring 3.6, and I'm not having contractions anymore, which is A-fucking-mazing. We are going to skip the cerclage, since it seems like my cervix is behaving, and I guess there are some risks at this point in the pregnancy.
I'm still on bedrest until I go back in two weeks for another ultrasound and cervix check.
Thank you all so much for all the support. I really thought I was losing these babies on Sunday. My MFM is amazing, and I feel like she saved my babies. I had been to so many ultrasounds, with my OB, and kept being told everything was fine. If she had not found the placenta abruption, and thrown me on bedrest, I'm not sure I'd still be pregnant.
You guys rock my socks off. Thank you all for checking in, and sending us all the love and support. I really am blown away by the support.
Thanks for taking the time to update us ;in between the horror of grapefruit sized clots... Yikes. Holy moly I can't imagine the fear you were going through at that moment. I'm so happy to hear the boys are doing well. (Are you going to post a thread about the great disappointment of not having one of each?!?!?!) High five for great MFM work there. Keep looking after yourself and your boys! Stay in there boys, you got some more baking to do! Positive thoughts your way all the time.
@leenziepops , haha, no. I wanna smack that bitch... Or, that person who's acting like a bitch, or...the person who I feel is being a little insensitive about "gender" (fuck, I don't know what I'm allowed to say now)
I will take these babies as boys, girls, LGBT, whatever the fuck they have between their legs, or want between their legs as adults. Give me the babies!!!

I am SO glad to hear this! As truly terrible as that clot sounds, I'm glad that was the culprit here. Take care of yourself on bedrest and tell those boys to stay sticky!
Ahhhhh! @GirPipley I'm so excited for this amazing update! I'm literally in tears trying to finish my dinner. I'm so glad you and the boys are doing well!! I'll continue to keep you and your boys in my thoughts and prayers!

You and me both! We'll do our best to make sure we don't see her returning. Please continue to update us. (And if not too much trouble, let us know what page pretty please!!)
So so happy to hear such good news!! Glad things are improving. We have certainly been thinking about you and your family and will continue to do so. Thank you for all of the updates to keep us posted!
Still keeping you and your boys in thoughts and prayers. Grow babies, grow!
Also, you deserve some kind of award for bravery or something for passing that clot and not immediately passing out. I'm not even squeamish and that gave me shivers.
Praying your sweet boys are continuing to grow and you are continuing to rest! Also that your family has peace, sweet mama! You're doing a great job! Glad to hear your littles are fighters and your body seems like a superstar at protecting them. Love!
I am so late getting to this, and I'm so sorry! I'm sending you so much love Abd good vibes that you make it well past viability with those babies!!! ❤️
With all the crap going on lately I am super late to this and I'm sorry I wasn't right there from the beginning! But I've been crying through your updates and I'm so glad things are looking better. I could dance. I hope and pray that those boys stay put a good long while! And hopefully something good comes of the bed rest, maybe you'll learn an amazing new skill as a result!
