Not ready yet...

So, here is the news. This little guy's lungs are not ready and so we will have to wait to meet him. My doctor gave me a date of the 28th for an induction if I can make it that far. Kind of sucks! Oh well, at least now we know.

His dopplers (A Doppler ultrasound test is used to evaluate blood as it flows through a blood vessel. It helps the doctor to evaluate blood flow through the umbilical cord, the brain and a small vein by the heart.) today were getting worse than they have been.

We have an appointment on Thursday to check again and make sure his dopplers are still ok. If they get too bad that means he is too stressed and it will be better for him if we deliver. We are going to keep our fingers crossed that he can last the two more weeks so I can hopefully bring him home when I come home!

I'm sorry this has been so stressful. Your little guy just wants to cuddle up in there for a little longer. You're such a good mommy. Hang in there!
