An update is long overdue. Since the last post Lori was released from the hospital after just 2 days and put on bed rest at home. Then on 11/25 we visited the specialist and found out her cervix had shorten to just about 1mm. She was immediately admitted to the hospital and has been their since and will remain there for the duration of the pregnancy. She has had some good days and some bad days. She is routinely monitored and sometimes she will have contractions every 5-6 minutes and other times she will have none. Fortunately, her cervix hasn't shortened anymore, or started to open for that matter.
The babies are doing good. They were just recently given an exam by the specialists where they test 8 different things relating to development; like breathing and swallowing. All 3 babies passed with flying colors!
Up until now the pregnancy has be relatively easy for Lori, but now she is starting to have some trouble. As of late her gestational diabetes has been an issue. Her sugar levels seem to be all over the place. Just this morning her sugar was only in the 50's. She is also getting tired of the hospital food and the bed is no longer comfortable. We are going to get her some extra padding for the bed to help her back. She is also very home sick and puggie sick too.
Lori is now 30 weeks pregnant with the peas and they are doing great. The doctors think she could get a few more weeks but are taking it day by day. She and I are hoping to make it to 33 weeks (christmas eve).
