Update

While Lauren is not in 'labor', Baby B seems pretty determined to come out. Shes not having regular contractions but as of 530pm was 1cm dilated. The doc says that even with Lauren being inverted, there is a lot of pressure on her cervix and believes it is inevitable. Everyone here is on high alert but its SO incredibly aggravating that theres nothing to do but wait. So we wait. Tomorrow will be the 21 week mark - 24 is viability.

Lauren is keeping her spirits up. Weve had her parents and my mom as brief visitors today and are hoping for a good nights sleep. A huge thanks to everyone for your support during this - we love you all.

Sleep tight. Happy Valentines Day.

praying fervently for all of you. I cannot imagine the worry. -Father God, sustain this family with your peace that passes all understanding, and keep the babies safely in mommy's womb until at least 24 weeks. AMEN.-

Matt and I are so sorry to hear the news, we know in our hearts that baby B will make it to week 24. It is just horrible that you have to go through this all over again and we will be praying that this time will turn out better then last. We love you and take care!!

Please baby B, I know you are eager to discover the world but still a few weeks in the womb of your mom with siblings.
your sister also wanted to discover the world, but she came out too early and mommy and daddy have cried.
So if you don't want mommy to be sad ,waiting the end of the RSV before came out because outside it's still cold and it's full of microbes. In the belly of mommy there is no microbe and it's hot.
