Two weeks ago I was able to meet my new Specialist in San Antonio, Melinda Mc Farland. I can tell I'm going to like her. Baby A measured 1lb11oz 73rd percentile; Baby B 1lb12oz 84th percentile. They were Still doing great. We are Blessed!.
Yesterday (2weeks later)I came in for a check up and met my new ob who will be delivering me. I feel good, look good (no swelling), but my cervix is shortening. I went from a 4 in Houston, two a Little over 2 two weeks ago and now a 1.2-1.6. Babies are great. Baby A is at my cervix really working his way out. Baby B is chilling across my stomach left to right. They are both moving like crazy. They miraculously both weigh 2lbs4oz. We are so happy, but due to my cervix, I was admitted into the hospital at 26 weeks rather than 28 weeks. I will be here until the babies are born. My new OB Dr. Murdock who is the cheif of staff and I really like her. I was admitted to North Central Baptist Hospital at Stone Oak off Sonterra/1604. It's a gorgeous hospital and I'm right down the hall from my dr(s) so they can monitor me.
Quade is not so sure about this, but he will be here today to hopefully explain more. Last night he missed me and he also missed the turtle, dogs And whatever else left the screen on his little cartoons. He's in good hands!
I also know Im in good hands. Please check these scriptures out if you have a second. As many of you know, it's a miracle that the babies measured identical yesterday at 2lbs 4oz. I had a good friend see that as a sign and found scripture for me that I would like to share:
Okay 2 lbs 4 oz each baby…. There MUST be a message… so here's what I found;
Ruth 2:4 The LORD be with you…the LORD bless you.
2 Kings 2:4 …as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.
Habakkuk 2:4 …the just shall live by his faith
Haggai 2:4 Yet now be strong saith the LORD; and be strong…and be strong, saith the LORD, for I am with you, saith the LORD of hosts
Corinthians 2:4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart…not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you
Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost.
The Lord, your prayers and support bring me peace. There is still a long road ahead of us. I will find out more about my cervix today. I have had progesterone shots (to stop early labor) and steroid shots (to help babies lungs grow). I know I'm n here earlier than I want to be, but I know God has sent me here for a reason. We will just wait day by day. My first goal is 28 weeks (first of November) but I'm praying for 32 weeks (last week of November). Thank you for your love and support. I'll try to post again at the end of the day.
I am sharing your updates with the e-mail prayer chain here in Junction as everyone awaits them eagerly. Prayers are flying everywhere for you and babies A and B. And Trey and Quade and the rest of your family.
