Today I had a nice talk with Dr G. and he said that while I could go home now, he is glad that I am here because he can have a closer watch on our babies this way. And well, I feel the exact same way. He said that as long as our insurance company doesnt start harassing he would like to see me stay here until I am 32 weeks! Wow! 32 weeks? 4 weeks ago, when I was admitted they didnt think I would make it to 28 and now they think I can go to 32? God is good!
Let's keep praying that the insurance doesnt try to interefere with the very close monitering my babies need and are able to recieve right now.
Dr G. would also like to see me deliver naturally. Hmmm, Im not sure how I feel about that. For 7 months I have been told I would have a C-section and I have come to being okay with that because Dr's told me it was safest for the babies and of course I want what is safest for them. But NOW, different Dr's are telling me that there is no medical reason why I shouldnt be able to deliver if both babies remain head down. So pray about this for me. I am so nervous with them being premeeies that the trauma from going through the birth canal may be too much on their little bodies, but Dr G doesnt seem to think so.
Also, something that really reminded me that God has His hand in all of this is that Dr G told me today, that in all his years of experience as a High Risk OB it has NOT been the norm for babies of Twin to Twin Syndrome to have their fluids equal out and REMAIN stable the way Emma and Molly's fluids have. Unless you have the laser surgery to correct the problem, its just not heard of that it corrects itself.
So again, I have to say THANK YOU for every person that has ever prayed a single prayer for my babies. They are strong little girls who are amazing the Doctors and God is amazing Me.
Today their fluids measured to be 4 cm for Molly and 3 cm for Emma!
Thank you God, just doesnt seem to say enough.
Ever since Dr G told us this morning that our girls are beating the odds I havent been able to get Rebecca St. James song out of my head. "God".
Here are the lyrics...google the video!
"It's God, truly God
Can you see can you hear can you touch can you feel
It's God, truly God
I can't explain any other way cuz it's God"
Amen to Rebecca's lyrics!!!
ReplyDeleteI know you're nervous about delivering naturally, but I just had a friend pregnant with twins who was told all along she would get a C-section, and then both babies were in the correct position and she went into labor and delivered both with NO issues! They were at 35 weeks and didn't have to go to NICU and she is recovering MUCH more quickly than if she had the surgery. They just went home yesterday! So hopefully there's some encouragement.
God is all over this situation and I'm SO excited to see the 2 beautiful healthy girls that are the answers to all of these prayers!!!
Your girls are doing awesome!
ReplyDeleteI really wanted to deliver naturally and thankfully my OBs and MFMs were very supportive. Yes we had the surgery but we also had reverse TTTS at the end so we went exactly home free. I was a little nervous but our guys were champs and my recovery has been cake. That means I get to drive myself up to the hospital all the time to see my guys. Pray about it- go with your gut. Ask the Lord for wisdom and then trust that He will give it to you. You'll make the right decision for you.
went= weren't
ReplyDeletePraising the Lord for how good you are all doing! I will continue to pray for your girls, for insurance to cooperate, and for wisdom and a peace from the Lord about your delivery!
