Took my glucose test. No idea if I passed but at least I didn't throw up and have to start over. Then went upstairs to my MFM appointment where I had a list of worrisome questions from my OB and the L&D folks from my drive by two weeks ago. Things like- is my amniotic fluid too low? Should I be admitted to the hospital for the rest of the pregnancy? Scary things.
Got to see a different MFM (mine is out today) and my MFM is usually very scary and constantly predicting DOOM. Today's doc though looked over everything- congratulated me on a beautiful baby and told me to keep doing whatever I have been doing and my next required appointment would be in... EIGHT WEEKS.
My eyeballs nearly fell out of my head and I explained that my OB was worried I'd be delivering basically any day now and my usual MFM hadn't been particularly positive about my chances of making it much past viability. So she said they could have me back in 4 weeks just to check in- but that everything she saw today indicates to her that I've got a really great chance of making it to 32 weeks without any more intervention than my weekly shots and home bed rest.
I'm on cloud nine ladies. I feel amazing about Elisabeth's chances if I make it to 32 weeks- that hadn't even been a goal on the horizon yet. I'm going to settle down with my snoogle and see about keeping this baby baking for a few more months
