First steroid shot done!

Bella baby's lungs are that much closer to being functional at birth. We have another steroid injection in about 19 hours. Between now and then we have a barrage of appointments that will let us know a LOT more of the "full picture" than we do now. The neonatal specialist as well as the peds cardiac doc are HUGE pieces of the puzzle. Between those two and the peri we can start piecing together this puzzle that I hope results in a healthy and happy Bella baby.

I am also hoping to get moved down to the antepartum floor today with the rest of the bedresting moms to be. It was one thing hoping to make it days, and I am still hoping to make it weeks, but I know the docs are hoping for months and I just can't think that far ahead right now. It's too overwhelming. I am away from everything I have, my kids, everything.and oh my gosh I miss my bed too! And being able to eat when I want and what I want (within my GD restrictions.) as it is I am sitting here counting down the time until I can even place my breakfast order. 1.5 hours and then another 45 minutes beyond that for it to get here. UHG!

I can do this, I can do this. I know I can, I'm strong! (Man I wish I could take small walks)
