Getting very close!

This morning I had another bleed, by far the worst yet. They wanted to start me on mag and a refused. I wasn't having contractions and just yesterday morning my dr and I spoke about mag and she said we're past the point of it working for neuro protection. I am so glad I did refuse because I am not really having anymore contractions than I usually would have.

But they transferred me to L&D, baby is looking great. I just recieved a dose of rescue steroids (I also got them at 24 weeks) and I can't eat just in case. The md that is on for my dr spoke with one of the perinatologists and they decided that any bleed no matter the size I will have a c-section.

I don't even know what to feel right now. I feel relieved to know there is an end in sight but at the same time so sad that I may only be pregnant for a few more days. I am praying that this little guy is a fighter and doesn't need too much nicu time. I feel terrible my body is failing him and he has to come early and struggle. As upset as I am that this is most likely the last time I will be pregnant I am so thankful I was given another opportunity to become a mother again. Thinking back on our IVF cycle I would've given my left arm for this child so I just have to remember how blessed we really are.

Everyday is less time in the nicu, but it looks like Elijah will be making his debut any day now!
