LJM. I hope all is going well. Maybe we will hear the wonderful news that you welcomed your new little bundle of joy into this world!

Good thoughts your way, LJM. Maybe he's getting tired of your loud neighbor and the strange-looking food too. :biggrin:

PJTP-My doctor cut my blood pressure medicine in half today!

:biggrin::thumbup::thumbup:

PJTP - im having very irregular contractions... i think he wants out!!

Tomorrow is Friday and you did say you wanted him to hold out until then. Will he be considered full term or will he need an incubator?

sometimes we rely too much on the scale for success....much congrats!

it seems like you've been in the hospital forever! little bit needs to quit being so impatient!!!

OK my fill story for today....did I get an unfill like we all thought? NOPE! He put more in! He said that when he watched the barium go down, it wasn't refluxing as it went down. So I'm not chewing enough he says. Just now, I took a decent sip of Water and, yeah, that was too much. Interesting!

PS - Ocean Spray's SF Ruby Red is awesome!

he'll be considered full term tomorrow, but who knows? even some full term babes need to go to NICU... we'll see...

i've been on bed rest since new years day - in the hospital for this stay 14 days today... all day long i had NO neighbors, now i have them on both sides of me and they are LOUD talkers once again ... WTF people ... you are in a hospital, HUSH!!

that's weird about your fill... hopefully you are just a tad swollen right now and it'll get better.;

Have you had any steroid shots for lung development??

LJM---have they given you an estimate on his size from the Ultrasound?

My last 3 grandbabies, were all within mere ounces of what the Dr. predicted with the ultrasounds.

My oldest DD was in the hospital on bed rest and meds for Preeclampsia. When they did the ultrasounds, there was no change in the babies size, she was suffering from intrauterine growth restriction, so they induced her. He said the baby would be between 4 1/2 and 5 pounds----and she was 4 lbs 14 oz. Never needed oxygen, she was born late one night, spent the next day and come home the following morning. As long as she could regulate and hold her own body temp they discharged her.

My grandson, she went without a problem one, until 10 cm. dilated, and he was pinching his umbilical cord. They told us he was small, about 5 pounds--he was 5 lbs 3 oz!!

Last one was last week, they said about 8 lbs 8 oz. he was 8 lbs 12 oz!!

Amazing accuracy!!!

Good Luck!!!

The topic of sleep quality in an acute care setting intrests me very much. In fact, it the subject of my research project.

Have you had any steroid shots for lung development??

Baby LJM is waaaaaaaay too far along for that. His lungs are already formed, and they'll be put to good use very soon, from the sounds of it........glad I'm done with the crying babies, LOL

Everyone must be on FB tonight.

No, I'm just wondering what I'm supposed to consist on...

No, I'm just wondering what I'm supposed to consist on...

Do like I do.....subsist on optimism and joy. And occasionally, on the flesh of the homeless.

I keep thinking of the Gregorian Chant. :biggrin:

Beth quit picking on Plain long enough to become a member of my mob - then you can pick away all you want. :biggrin:

Plain - U 2!

Shut up - I'm actually serious.
