I feel better today but I start spotting again at work. Dr Merrit wants to see me right away. My super sweet supervisors and co-SLPs cancel my clients and head to her office. She sees that I am bleeding but my cervix is closed. She mentions something about DeStefano's report saying a SCH. She sends me to have an u/s. Dr Darby is still out. His head nurse sees me walking in and tells me to come on back since "we're good friends now". She does not see a SCH but sees a "venus lake" on the placenta near the umbilical cord. She says those are common and not to worry about.
Dr. Merrit tells me to take the rest of the week off and do partial bedrest until I go to DeStefano's office again (on Thurs). She says partial bedrest means that I need to rest 3-4 hrs in the morning and 3-4 hrs in the afternoon. She says that I can still cook and do SOME cleaning. Definitely no strenuous activities though.
Wouldn't it be nice if you got frequent flyer discounts for doctor visits and ultrasounds?
Thanks for doing this Noelle. You guys and your little baby boy have been so heavy on my heart these past few weeks and it will be great to know what specific concerns to lay before our Father. You're an amazing mom to both your kiddos and I know He'll give you strength to handle the coming months and years with your growing family.
ReplyDeleteI second that comment, we are praying for you guys too! I pray everything looks good tomorrow and that the doctor acurately sees what is going on in there. I pray you have peace despite everything you are going through and I pray for Luc to be extra content and easy these next months!
