Holding On

It's been a few nutty days, with driving around for Christmas. Connecticut back to NYC over to NJ back to NYC with 2 doctor visits. My lovely partner, however- must slow down.

On Christmas eve we met with the obgyn. Did i mention we love this woman? Anyway, she said that M's cervix is definitely changing. She said it has changed from last week and wants to see M again today for some other blood work. The doctor recommended not traveling too far (that blows the Vermont idea over New years), not lifting anything over a pound, not standing and cooking (she bakes,- doesn't cook, so no prob), and wants to see her every week. Plus M must see the peri each week. We expect to hear that she needs to go on modified best rest at some point.

The doctor said she was concerned. The key is to reaching 30 weeks. M is at 27.5 weeks. 30 weeks???? That is scary...didn't the Court tv anchor, Nancy Grace give birth to one twin that was slightly over 2 pounds?? I must google Nancy Grace in a minute.

Luckily, M hasn't lost her job. She did lose her office a few avenues away. Her company reorganization resulted new work responsibilities: managing fewer people, and having to work from a home office, and we assume less money. Problem is- we in the process of turning over our home office to the babies. So, dining area (cannot call it an actual room) is where she will work.

We can figure out the logistics, all the stuff that seemed important. The important thing is obviously- just holding on.
