Update....
Last 7 weeks, my wife has been on bedrest which has kinda turned our lives upside down with 2 other kiddos at home. Ages 4 & 2...
Everything has been going good up until today. She went to her doctor yesterday and everything appeared to be fine and dandy. They called today and said to make our way to Labor & Delivery so she can get an Iron treatment. Her iron levels were extremely low and that is not good for her or the baby.
We get to St. Lukes and of course it takes 2 hours to get the iron treatment from the pharmacy. In the mean time, they have hooked her up to monitor her and the baby and they did not like what they were seeing. She was having contractions every 4 minutes!
Nurse comes back and informs us that we are now guests at St. Lukes and my wife is now being given magnesium sulfide in an IV to stop the contractions. Don't know how long she is going to stay or if they are going to decide to go ahead and take the baby.
I sure thought we were in the clear. Original plan was to have the baby July 6 which was about 2 weeks early. Now who know.
Please continue all of the prayers. My wife and I thank the many of you who have kept us in your thoughts in this exciting, but nervous time.
Maybe this is some of the reasoning behind me being so "crabby" lately..(as my good fishin' bud up told me the other day....all I can say is...."MY BAD"
