Greetings all. It is late Monday night. We are hanging out at Women's Hospital again tonight. Last night Kristy had 4 contractions during her monitoring session. That is the threshold. She took a little more medicine (which usually reduces the number of contractions) and the number went up to 5. The doc had us come in to monitor Kristy. She continued to have more than the threshold of contractions but no other obvious pregnancy problems. The doc reassured us that this is normal as this pregnancy progresses. We may have to do this several more times. As long as week can keep these babies past 30 weeks, we will be able to handle it. The doc put her on another medicine temporarily and we are watching to see if the contractions calm down. So far so good. If all goes well, we will be released tomorrow morning. We will likely go home with a revised terbutaline dosing regimen. No big deal, we just change the medicine cartridges a little more often. We have a baby checkup on Wednesday to take all the measurements. We did get some good news though. The doc said we can go swimming once or twice a week if we like. Well by swim, I mean float around in the pool. We look forward to using that maternity swimsuit several more times in the next few weeks! Please continue to pray for us! More info to come.
