Okay last Thursday was my specialist appointment.  The baby's head is measuring 9% and she is VERY small.  She has almost no fat but her organs look like they are developing on time  so they think the IUGR is just effecting her actual weight and growth at this point.  This is about the best possiable scenario for us at this point because once she is born, she will most likely catch up on the growth.  We are now looking at a 32-34 week delivery so she have a stay in the NICU but she will hopefully be just fine.  The abruption is a little worse but not bad enough for me to have to stay at the hospital yet.  On Friday, we took my 3 yr old (Nevada) to STL which is three hours away for her surgery.  It went as good as can be expected and she was so brave about the whole thing.  I am so proud of her.  It was a really long trip for all of us and the doctors didn't want me to go but I had to be there for her, I don't just stop being her mom because i'm pregnant, eventually the docs realized that I was going so they told me what to do if something happened.  Luckily it was okay, I'm just very stiff and sore from the trip.  It did start up some contractions but they gave me a shot on Sat to help with that.  Sunday was the family reunion on my Dad's side and a few of them stopped by to see me since I was in bed.  That was nice but I wish I had more warning so I could've at least gotten out of my pjs :).   Well so far so good, I don't have to go back to any doctor for two weeks - YEAH!!!
