update for prayer request

My daughter was in the hospital this evening for several hours under observation, hooked up to monitors for her and the baby. Her blood pressure had been high all day. They did lab work and it came back clear, so it is NOT preeclampsia. PTL! They found that if she was laying on her left side the contractions slowed or stopped, and the blood pressure went down.

So...they have sent her home on STRICT bed rest, retracting the easing up on it they gave her for the holiday weekend! Personally, they should have kept her over night. They figure since she wasn’t dilating it was ok. They only left her for 15 minutes on the left side to see if that made the difference and didn’t track her long enough, in my mind. It is the weekend, and on call Dr and intern. :o( Please keep up the prayers! She is 35 weeks along.

Thank you for those that have been going up!! We are forever grateful!

Added anonymous freeper to my prayer list. Thankful that it wasn’t as bad as first feared, but a long way to go yet.

Prayers for this mother, that she is able to get medical care in a timely manner if she suffers a setback at home.

Dear Lord, please let her hold her baby safely until it's time to be born into this world you have prepared. Let mother and child come to worship you, to kneel before you and give thanks together, and spread Your Word, and give witness to Your Love.

I am so happy to hear it is not pre-ecclampsia!

I will continue to pray for all concerned — especially mother and baby.

Hello!

I was thinking I had 2 weeks in which to prepare for an important interview on June 29....
Things are changing here.

My daughter’s heart Doc was rather upset today to find that when she was in to ER / OB about a week ago due to high blood pressure that they didn’t either put her on meds or deliver the baby! The OB doc is out today. The heart doc will call the OB doc tomorrow and share her mind. She told the expectant mom to be prepared for a call from the OB doc saying the C-section will be on Friday of this week!!

OH MY!

Baby soon!!

They will put her completely under for the c-section because her heart condition will not allow the epideral. Due to this, it is likely they will not allow anyone in the room as support personnel. Her mentor mom (also an RN) is out of town. We were hoping they would at least allow her in there, using the excuse of wanting pictures. That won’t be happening because Jenn is out of town.

At her OB appointment last week Friday the baby was measuring at 5 lbs 5 oz. We were hoping for over 6 lbs.

Your prayers are coveted!

Update received in email

..................................................................................

It has been a trying couple of days, as the tug-of-war went on between doctors, patient, information seeking, etc. I will leave out all the stressful details, but want to thank you for your prayers. The net result of the last few days....

My daughter is scheduled for a c-section at 12 noon, Friday, June 22, 2007.
Due to her heart condition, she will be put under and they will run an monitor thru her artery to her heart to keep an eye on it.
If all goes well, she will be finished in about an hour, and back in OB with the baby.
They will start her immediately on blood thinners because of the possibility of clotting after the surgery, and her blood issue.
If there is any trouble (heart issues), they will move her to ICU and keep her closely monitored for several hours before allowing her to go up to OB. If this is the case, my grandson will be in the nursery until she is in the room. (Unless they will allow gramma to hold him....EEEWWWWW! that makes me feel old!)
They very likely will keep her at the hospital for 5-7 days to keep an eye on her heart, and start dealing with medications for her heart again.

I hope that Friday night, when all is well and they are tucked in for the night, that I can come home and email you with the good news and some pictures, as well!

We are nearing the end of this part of the journey. Thank you for your continued prayers through the next few days.
