Praying for all of you. Glad the appointment went ok, and sending prayers for the next few. Sounds like everything is just one step at a time; hopefully you can take it that way and not get overwhelmed. ((Hugs))

Thinking of you all today. I'm glad that the US showed some positive progress, and I hope that it continues to improve. I'll be praying for strength for each of you as you.
Sending you and your family family good thoughts during this tough time. Thanks for the update. I hope you continue to receive good, healthy news at each appointment.
I am praying for the best possible outcome for you and your babies. You are so strong to share your journey and I pray for your peace as you make the best possible choices for your children.
Referring to the name suggestions...Caden means spirit of battle.
@treeofcheem we think we have. Baby A (the little one) is Kaiden, Baby B is Tucker. Still need middle names. Tucker may get a middle name that has a meaning of helper, protector, etc. but we aren’t decided.

Glad that your follow up was okay. Thank you for the update, I'll continue to send lots of thoughts and prayers your way. You and your family are so strong handling everything the way you are right now.
Thank you for the update. I’m glad your update was positive news. I know it’s hard to be away from H and your LO, but I’m sure your sister is loving having you. It also helps to have her there so you have some emotional support and you aren’t stuck with making a terribly long drive or staying in a hotel. Please keep us updated. Many hugs to you!!
Thank you for updating us. Continued prayers are being sent up for you and your family. I’m very happy to hear that you are staying amongst family even if separated from your husband. I think the names are lovely too! Kaiden has always been one of my favorites.
I hope everything is going alright with you. Thinking of you!

Hi everyone, I’m still here taking things day by day. We’ve had our downs with small ups but we’re managing to stay stable even though the conditions aren’t favorable. Kaiden (the little one) has been pretty much persistent reverse flow since the last update but has yet managed to continue to grow on his own curve, not really falling any further behind. At one point he also had reverse flow in his ductus venosus but luckily that is no longer the case so we are grateful for that! This past Tuesday was the first time the doctor ever mentioned the possibility of making it to a point of viability/delivery so that keeps us hopeful. Living away from home, although with family, has made me homesick but I’m still grateful. Our current goal is getting to 23 weeks so I can have steroid shots, which I will need anyway, but have also been known to temporarily improve blood flow. I’ll also be admitted to the hospital for continuous monitoring at that time. I’m currently 20 weeks and go to appointments 2 times a week and have a weekly growth scan. Hopefully we will make it! Thanks for checking in on me ladies. I occasionally lurk but I haven’t been posting.
@matron_of_honor_kathryn@xxkberxx thank you for updating us. You have been on my mind the last few days. Continuing to think about and pray for you and your family. I’m sure it’s hard being away from DH and your LO, but you are providing some awesome care to these two babies.
@matron_of_honor_kathryn thank you for the update! I was thinking about you last week quite a bit - hoping, and praying no news was good news. Sounds like small steady steps forward! Continued prayers going up for you and your family.
Thank you for the update! I hope the next 3 weeks are uneventful. I can’t imagine what it’s like to be away from home during this time but am glad you have your family to support you.
Glad to hear your update, very glad that your little ones are holding strong, and that you're being taken care of so well.
Keeping everything crossed for an uneventful three weeks, and steroid shots!!

Thank you for the update. I’m hoping the babies make steady progress these next 3 weeks. I received steroid injections when my son had absent bloodflow and it improved bloodflow enough to last another week. I hope you get the same or better results! I’ll be keeping you and your family in my thoughts.

@treeofcheem today im 24+3. Im hanging on! Yesterday i got admitted to the hospital until i deliver. We are hoping to make it to 29-33 weeks. My little one is having some better growth but still very small - currently 323g. My big baby is officially viable at 540g. My little one still has mostly reverse umbilical flow but everything else is looking decent so we are able to keep going with expectant management.
I hope everyone has been having uneventful pregnancies!
My app app is terribly inconsistent that I haven’t really been coming on much anymore

@xxkberxx thank you for the update, I’ve been thinking about you and hoping for the best. I’m so happy your bigger baby has reached a viable size. Prayers that everything stays looking good so they can both continue to grow! Please know we’re all pulling for you.
@nackie thank you so much. I grately appreciate it. I’m sorry I haven’t been more active or giving very many updates. This was a huge milestone though - getting admitted. I feel like we are a little safer now but we still have a long uncertain road ahead.

It's wonderful to hear you're hanging in there @xxkberxx and that you've been able to continue with expectant management. I'm sorry you're looking at such a long hospital stay but I'm glad you're feeling good about having been admitted. Sounds like it's the best place for you to be for you and your LOs.

@xxkberxx That's wonderful news! You have quite the little fighters on your hands. Sorry you'll be spending so much time in the hospital but glad you all have made it this far!
