1 for the money, 2 for the show, 3 to get ready and 4 here we go . . .

So we had our doctor's appointment today after a long weekend of continous contractions. I still have made no prgoress from last weeks hospital stay. I am currently 33.5 weeks, 3cm and 50% effaced. Here is the plan as of this morning. Next Monday (2/9) we will have an ultrasound to look at the babies positions and their growth. Then on Thursday (2/12), we will have an amino (they place a needle into the sac where the baby is and take fluid out to test for lung maturity) on both babies. It will take 4-6 hours to get the results back to show if their lungs are mature for life outside the womb. If they come back positive, then we will have a c-section the next morning on Friday (2/13). If they come back negative, then the c-section will be put off one more week.

With all this said, if my body progress any futher on it's own between now and next week, the babies would be delivered sooner. So again, we wait and continue to allow Adilynn and Luke to grow stronger and healtier. Everyday at this point is less time in the NICU.
