lol no, my floo is hurting and i was waiting for the hospital to phone so i went on strike, dh made the kids tea and got them changed ready for bed.

they just phoned and aparently its fine for me to go tomorow and have my bloods done, they are doing a doppler to check the blood flow to the placenta because her growth has tailed off and with the reduced liquid they want to make sure my placenta is still behaving itself, if it isnt they will deliver wednesday after fasting overnight, if it is they will monitor me twice a week and do a scan each week but deliver her at 36 weeks. so it all rests on tomorow really.

thanks hun. she would be safe if they did deliver this week but its much better for her to stay in for another few weeks.

I very much know that feeling. I remember you first saying you thought they might deliver at 24 weeks way back in January sometime, as they were looking at my birthday (1st of Feb) for your little one. So it's fantastic she'd got these extra 7 weeks. Would be even better if she could get another few under her belt though. I'm counting the days here too, 27 weeks today, but bp is currently running at 168/117 so they either need to fix that or I'm going to have a very tiny baby on my hands.

fingers crossed they sort that out for you hun. yeah i dont know how i would have coped with another 24 weeker to be honest, at least a 33 weeker is a bit closer to being a fully formed baby (sorry wasnt sure how to put that) i just looked at my scan results and they are estimating her to be 4.1lb when she is born, so that either means i am getting a 10lb er or she will be tiny.
