Today we had our meeting with Children's that went really well. Confirmed some of our thoughts and answered almost all the questions that we went in with.
We then went to UW for a followup ultrasound and meeting with the high risk OB. As of 2:30 this afternoon I am officially off work for the rest of the pregnancy. The OB said that I didn't have to be on bed rest but I wasn't allowed to do to many strenuous things and need to take it easy. The reason for all of this is that My amniotic fluid level was at 5.4cm and normal is between 8 and 22cm. Had I measured under 5cm I would have been put on hospital bed rest. I now get to go in for weekly monitoring and hopefully can keep this baby in until he is due.
Re: T&P's needed
Oh my, I'm so sorry to hear how hard this is for you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that the rest of the pregnancy runs smoothly for you.

Bed Rest can be a pain in the asz, try to give yourself a schedule of things to do. Use different blankets during the day. I have a bunch of ideas if you want, I was preparing for about 13 weeks of bed rest.
Also remember even if he does come at any time now: He will survive, he will be able to be helped by a bunch of medical professionals. It is not an easy path, but in the end you will have a perfect, healthy, albeit smaller, baby boy in your arms.
