Double the Joy!

Great News KD

Does this mean they can get buy one delievery get the second one half off at the OB??? LOL

It's so cool to have them so close in age. They will enjoy it. Since my sister is 16 months older and my cousin is 5 months older, the 3 of us did everything together. I hope they will be as close as we were.

When are the due dates??

Thank you.

Hi y'all.

I'm sorry that I haven't responded or updated in a while. Things have really been rough here. I so appreciate the prayers, thoughts and meditations going out and up for my daughter and myself.

I would like to ask for continued thoughts and/or prayer, as well as update y'all and expand on the requests. First I'll update on my youngest.

She's maintaining, though still feeling so badly. She's been to the ER several times now for IV fluids. She's just been so sick. The pregnancy is maintaining and she's 15 wks. tomorrow. She's working closely with both the endo and the OB.

Last week she had to have a liver ultrasound because her liver counts were elevated. The ultrasound was fine, and the counts came back down. When the did the blood work, her thyroid counts had dropped so much that they wanted to test her again yesterday to make sure that they're not dropping too low. We've not heard from them, so no news is good news.

She saw her OB today and has lost 3 lbs since her last visit. That's awesome!!!! She's lost right around 30 lbs in three months. The last time she lost, it showed 13 lbs in 14 days, so this is really good. She has the UTI back and needs meds for that as well.

The OB changed her nausea meds to zofran so she can eat. It's VERY expensive and ins. doesn't pay much on it.

The baby's heart rate is doing well and daughter's is doing a bit better as well.

Her dr. explained that this is a very rare situation she's in at such a young age and felt so badly for her. He also said this is a very high risk pregnancy. There doing tests to check the baby for birth defects as they can and she'll be having "high risk ultrasounds" which check for several things as well. She has to have those often.

I'll update you on my oldest now. I have bad news. Five days (yesterday) after she found out she was pregnant, she began miscarrying. The OB is certain that she is. It will be confirmed on Friday through blood tests.

She is grieving but doing well. We're all grieving with her.

They plan to go right back to trying. The dr. said there's no medical reason to have caused this. I hurt for her.

Please keep both of my daughters in your prayers, thoughts and meditations as they each go through their individual crisis, heartaches and concerns. They may be grown, but they're my babies and my life.

Thank you so much,

KD

Comforting hugs and caring thoughts to you all.

These are very rough and sad times.
Huddle together and hold one another up.

Thanks

Daughter's OB called this evening. It's confirmed. Her HCG levels fell from 26 to 5 in 48 hours. She's medically considered no longer pregnant.

With my youngest, her endo called today with her thyroid levels from tests taken Tues. Her levels had dropped prior from 4.05 to 2.9. That was a week ago Tues. The tests from this past Tues shows they've dropped from 2.9 to 2.3. She's doing well! She needs to keep taking the meds. If they can get her just under 1.8 that will be considered "high normal" for her Grave's Disease. So, this is promising.

Also, the baby's heart rate is lowering as her's does. It's gone from the 160's to the 140's to right around 150.

The top of the line nausea meds have done wonders. Between that and her counts dropping, her medical and physical symptoms are greatly reduced. She only had one "freak out" today and it was minor. She's not gotten sick at all, and is a calmer girl.

My big girl is grieving. The spark in her eye is gone for a while. We spent time together this afternoon and she's deeply sad but doing well. I've asked her to call me if she needs to cry and vent or to just say, "Mom, tell me a stupid story."

I love them more than life itself and both my girls are having such a hard time.

Thanks for caring and being here for me so that I can be for them.

Love,

KD

So much for you all to go through. It sounds like you are doing a wondeful job holding it all together and helping your beloved daughters through their difficult times.

I'm so glad to hear your youngest is feeling better. It sounds like her docs are on top of things and watching for all the issues that could popup.

My heart aches for your loss. With your love and understanding, I know your oldest will find her way through this difficult time.

All my love to you!


Hugssssss
