Another long night for Clayli

lax15bsu · August 2010

Well, she had an uneventful day. They did let her eat finally. She is off the mag, indocin, everything except antibiotics. (ETA: they just put her on some good painkillers). The doctors decided to leave the pessary in till Monday and try to clean it then. They're hoping that nothing drastic happens when they take it out and hope to get her through another week.

Of course, she said that when her contractions were 15 minutes apart all day. They've just picked up again, and are now 10min apart. Still a wait and see if they keep getting closer or if anything happens from them tonight. She's not confident that meds will stop the contractions again, since it took so long just last night.

But, tonight she's just not as scared. I think she's been through so much that she's accepted that the girls are going to come soon. They're almost 25 weeks; they have been tolerating all the contractions and stress amazingly well. And whatever happens, happens.

Just another uphill ride on the rollercoaster! Now we'll see if it's a swift downhill shot or if they're going to coast around another curve. I'll of course let you know when I hear anything more.

My prayer is that God will protect her and her precious girls.

Wow. That poor girl has been through A LOT. I have been keeping tabs on her via TTCAL. My thoughts and prayers are with her and I am hoping those girls can hang on a little longer! They seem like little fighters already!

I hope the doctors are able to help her keep them in just a little bit longer.

Man she can't catch a break, but those little girls sound like fighters just like her mom. I can't stop thinking about them and every day keep my fingers crossed she's doing ok and the babies are hanging in there. One more day baking is one more day. Thanks for keeping us updated. You are a great friend to her
