Pregnancy update

July 10, 2013

This last week has been so stressful to say the least. When it rains it sure does pour! I think I've lost weight just by worrying so much. I shouldn't worry. I should trust in God and I know, "thy will be done", but that is a lot harder done then said.

Catch up- Last week Kim's cervix was at a 1.8 which is not good at all. She was put on meds and semi bed rest.

Today when we went to the hospital to check her cervix I don't think I stopped praying the whole time. Thank you Bunny for putting that on FB. Im soo grateful for everyones prayers on our behalf.

First they did an ultrasound of the baby. Omg, I don't think I could ever get tired of watching her, even if it is in black and white. I always look for the heart beat first, then the Kidneys, and then her cute little face. She was very active and moving all over, which is music to my ears.

Both Kim and I held our breath as the Tech measured her cervix. The Tech was very quiet as she  took several measurements. (so I thought that this is not going to be good). However, we did not have any time to ask questions because Kim was also having her glucose test today. She had to have her blood drawn at 10:50am and no later than 10:55am, or else she would have to do it again. As we left the ultrasound room it was 10:48am....ahhh. We quickly but cautiously went down starts and made it just in time to take her blood.

After her blood was drawn we went back upstairs to here the results. GOOD NEWS!!! her cervix went from 1.8cm to 2.8cm. I think we both were able to take a deep breath and say many prayers of gratitude. A normal cervix length in pregnancy varies but should be between 3cm-5cm (I think), but we'll take the new increase.
I asked if we were in the clear and the Tech said "No". The doctor will call us tonight and tell us what our game plan is from here.

We will be going in on July 17th to have another ultrasound and to check the cervix. I'm very grateful they are watching her so close this time around.

Thank you, Thank you everyone, again, for all your prayers. We live on them everyday.

Much Love :)

Here is a cute little pic of her face!
