Sorry I missed last week's update, but that whole week is a blur... being in the hospital, on those crazy meds, there's no way I could've done a post. So here goes....
Baby this week:
-Jett probably weighs close to 5 pounds (the ultrasound we had in the hospital last week estimated 4 1/2 pounds, so this is probably pretty accurate) and measures almost 18 inches.
-His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to develop. He did receive 2 steroid doses in the hospital to help with his little lungs.
-Before now, preterm labor was a big deal. Now that we've reached the 34 week mark, chances are he'd be just fine if he decided to make his appearance. But we'll hope he decides to stay put for a few more weeks.
Mommy this week:
-Still hanging in there. Bed rest is NO FUN. I have been cheating a little, but the doctor says I'm doing good. No changes in dilation.
-Going to the doctor twice a week from here on out... that should keep me busy.
