Bedrest Day: 48
Hospital Day: 38
I've had a lot of tears this morning - but don't worry, they've all been happy tears. 28 weeks is a huge deal for me right now. Well, every day is a big day (every day is the farthest I've gotten, right), but today is extra special for me: I'm out of that lousy second trimester!! This is all new territory.
So the report from todays appointment is as follows: My CL was actually up .1 cm !! I never knew I would be so thankful for a .1 of anything. So it looks like my cervix is holding for now after 3 weeks of little/no change. Let's just kee our fingers crossed that it stays that way. Today's fFN came back negative as well and Dr. T wasted no time in telling me today that our next stop is 30 weeks on this third trimester train (and no, I don't mean I don't have a CL check next week, just that she's confident I'll make it to the 30's+). I have this little pit (anxious & nervous & excited & you name it) in my stomach right now, I really want to be able to say that "I'm 3X weeks pregnant".
Other news from the ultrasound is that Emmett's fluid levels are looking good, and was measuring right around 2 lbs. 13 oz.
I just want everything to keep going like this for another 6 weeks at least. I just want to bring our little guy home, and if it means hanging me by my feet from the ceiling I swear I'll do it with the closest thing to a smile on my face. But no need for that just yet, haha!

I'm so happy for you!!! Another big milestone. Yay for the 3rd Trimester. I just hit my 24 week milestone. 1 down hopefully many more to go.
How have you been lately besides sick? Haven't heard much from you.
Yay!!! I am so glad things are looking so good. I hope the next several weeks fly by!
28 weeks is HUGE, Heather Lynne!! I'm SOOO happy for you. At this point, you WILL be able to safely bring your baby home. Now, every day means a little less time in the NICU. 6 more weeks would be AMAZING, but just take it one week at a time. You are doing so well!! Just keep little Emmett baking as long as you can. - Tkeys
