Today was my OB appt and very last Ultrasound to measure our sweet boy. I was very nervous because my contractions have been so strong the past few days and I havent been feeling well. I was so grateful though to have Mitchell by my side today since work is slow he had the day off and got to see his son on ultrasound for the first time!
GOOD NEWS: I am not dilated....
AND baby Mitchell is in the 58th percentile for size and is growing great!
NOT SO GOOD NEWS: My cervix is short and soft and because of the severity of my contractions and they are painful I am at risk for labor at any time. So now between the risk of pre-term labor and the contractions themselves I am rendered basically useless....which is near impossible with 3 kids at home. I go back next Wednesday to get checked again and if there is any change I will most likely be staying in the hospital to keep pregnant as long as possible.
please pray.....
- Pray we will miraculously stay pregnant for 4 more weeks and for the 1st time ever make it to 36 weeks
- Pray I will be able to get rest and the kids will MIRACULOUSLY allow me to rest without taking advantage of my inability to do much (like they have been)
- Pray for me because I am feeling terribly discouraged and desperately wanting a safe healthy boy
**At the beginning of the ultrasound we had a great profile and Baby Mitchell was completely cooperative, however after they checked my length and decided to see 3d for fun he got those darned hands covering his face again! This boy ALWAYS has something covering his face! Hands, feet, the cord.....he is one shy guy!
But ridiculously adorable at the same time!
This one looks like he is blowing mama kisses <3
