Hi Mamas!
I'm 22w,6d pregnant with mono-di twins, preparing for hospitalization to monitor my shortening, funneling, and minimally dilated cervix and "irritable uterus" (aka PTL). We have a fantastic hospital team, but I'm obviously quite scared about this whole process and worried about our babies, how they will weather premature birth, and how we will bond with them in the NICU.
I'll check out the blog and have been in direct contact with some preemie mama Bumpies, but thought I'd also formally intro here since it seems I'll have a lot of time on my hands in the hospital and likely a whole buncha questions as things unfold.
Re: *waves hello* (intro)
Thanks ladies! Just getting through each day, setting small goals - this week's is to get to 24w. Next week's will be a bit loftier - 28w :-)
Looking forward to getting to know you all.
