Carmen, great news on your appointment. That is wonderful. Thanks for your reply. Today is already a better day, just one of those moments where I needed to vent. As far as getting out, I do pop out here and there and sit outside to get some fresh air so, I guess I need to put myself in check and be thankful I am not in the hospital like many others. I am blessed and needed to be reminded! I may have told you this before but a girlfriend of mine had her first child at 26w due to IC. He is now 3yrs old and doing fantastic. She went on to have another baby, with no cerclage, no bedrest and just 17P shots. She was induced! So, you are right, you can prove to the medical profession that you can make it to full term. Each week that passes, I get more and more excited. It sounds strange but even now if my baby came, I know the outlook would be good. Of course, I want he/she to bake for much longer but knwoing that eases me a bit. Have a great day and keep in touch.
