Todays appointment was going good until they went to look at Rachael's blood flow from her cord to the placenta. There is some blood flow but not like what they want it to be. So after my appointment I had to goto the hospital to get the steroid shot and i have to go back tomorrow as well for the 2nd part of the shot. By the end of the weekend the shots will be effective to help their lungs develop faster in case they have to born right away. I see the high risk doctor again on Tuesday to see how things are going. He would like to get me another 2 weeks but if he sees any changes in the blood flow, he will tell my OB to take the babies. I also have to have Non Stress Tests both Saturday and Sunday to keep a close eye on them.
Lucas now weighs 3.8 pounds and Rachael weighs 2.75. I saw both of the babies breathing on their own so that is great, i was sooo happy to see that.
My blood pressure was good again today so they were happy with that. More updates tomorrow.
