NOT the news i was expecting!
I am 27 weeks pregnant. This past Monday i went to the my normal OB appointment. When i was there they said they were going to do a fFN test. It is called Fetal Fibronectin. Basically, it will check to see if you could go into preterm labor within the next 2 weeks. I was fully expecting for the test to be negative as I am still not that far along, even for twins. So, imagine my suprise when i got a call later that afternoon saying the test came back positive. What a bummer. That means the baby shower that was planned for me for next Saturday had to be canceled and I was on modified bed rest. This does NOT mean that i WILL go into labor in the next two weeks, but it does mean that i need to be really careful not to do certain things and take it easy. I guess the chances are 30% that i could go into preterm labor. Luckily, my doctor is taking a lot of precautions and will be monitoring me very closely. If i do go into labor, they should be able to stop it. So, lots of rest for me. Stacia and I got our hair done today. I am so excited to be a blonde again!! We spent 5 hours at the salon, but don't worry.. i was sitting the whole time. :) Anyway, please pray these babies stay put for at least another 7 weeks!!!
