Bed Rest : Day 8 and 9

Thursday night I hurt really bad.  Cramping, contractions and lots of pressure.  I tried to just sleep it off, because they don't have me monitored all the time over here.  Friday morning, Shae stopped by and I just didn't feel good.  I still really hurt and was relieved when my nurse told me MFM wanted to see me again that morning.  They monitored for quite a while....contractions and babies, and I continued to hurt.  Dr. Jiricko and my High Risk Doc, Andrus were both there.  They came to chat and Jiricko checked me.  I had dilated more...I am now a 3-4.  No wonder I had been hurting.  They discussed with us taking the babies if I got to a 5-6, because they're so teeny they don't need 10 to come out.  I was a mess.  I was admitted to Labor and Delivery again to slow the contractions, they were 3 min. apart.  They started an IV with fluid and more Mag and started Indocine for my uterus again.  I was VERY miserable for a while.  I was given Lortab last night as well for the pain.  I am so thankful for Dan's family watching Jaeli, my mom for letting her spend the night and Dan being here to spend the night at the Hospital.  It was a mess, so it was good to have support.

This morning, Saturday,  Dr. Deschamps asked us about another complication.....if one baby is in distress.  Do we let her pass and try to keep the other 2 in?  Or do we deliver them all?  Dan and I decided we wanted to deliver them all. Dr. Deschamps said it was a good decision.....since they are 25 weeks now.  I feel really good about that decision...that all my girls are going to be ok. My cathiter came out, they took me off Mag, disconnected my IV and moved me back to the Floor instead of Labor and Delivery. I am hoping for a quiet, relaxing day with NO MORE DILATION OR CONTRACTING! 

The best part of my day?!  Jaeli girl gets to come up and see me.  They have arranged for me to have a wheelchair ride our into the waiting area so I can be with her.  It's been 8 days now.  I miss my 'Pea' terribly.  Fast forwarding, here are some pics Jaeli took and then some others:

 HAHA, nice of Daddy and me....she wanted Daddy's gum in the pic...don't ask what I'm doing.
 Mmmm, I think this is 23 weeks huge.
 My 'Pea' and me.  I think the wheelchair scared her.
 Then she cuddled up to me. :)
 One from Jaeli.
She wanted one of the teeny baby diaper mom was holding.  Nice Nat, lookin' good. :)
OH!  I think we've finalized our baby names:
Airalin Natalie
Brecklin Barbara
Camli Karen
I've had to get past the fact, that A LOT of people aren't going to like them...I say to you, so sorry! :)  HAHA!
