I received a bunch of information from a doctor yesterday morning and so here's my latest update...
I will not be going home before I have this baby. So if you're in PR, feel free to stop in and cook my husband a meal... but I am on bedrest until this baby arrives. If I stop bleeding and have no bleeding for five to seven days, they would discharge me and I would finish my bedrest at J's mom's place because I need to be close to ANW. But if I have any bleeding at all, my 5-7 day count starts over again.
I was also told I have a new due date... if I haven't delivered by 36 weeks (october 21) they will deliver me that day. But my Dr said that only 1/3 women in my situation will make it alll the way to 36 weeks.
I had another ultrasound yesterday and they said it is not a "marginal" privia. I was told that I could hemorrhage again and if I did it could be worse than it was on Tuesday. That is the main reason I'll be near this hospital until this little one arrives.
After the baby arrives we will probably be spending some time in the SCU, or the special care unit. That's good because its a step up from the N-ICU.
So that's what I learned yesterday. I'll hopefully be seeing my doc again this morning but am not expecting a whole lot of new information .
Thanks again for all the love and prayers!
