Well, We'll just see about that!

Jack wanted to sleep in our bed the other night. I told him he could lay in our bed until Daddy got home and then he needed to go into his own bed. He said "I'm going to talk to Daddy about that." I told him to go ahead but I didn't think it would make a difference. He wasn't snotty when he told me, just matter of fact.

Sometimes he'll ask me if Daddy can snuggle him at night and I tell him to "Talk to Daddy about that." I don't like to promise that other people will do things.

He's so cute. Last night he brought an armload of stuffed animals in my bedroom and stood there. I said "What are you doing?" he wouldn't answer. As if I didn't know what he was up to.

I got some disturbing news the other day. Apparently my pregnancy is so high risk that my doctors think that they might not be able to give me the care I need. I guess the risk that my uterus will rupture along the old incision is so great that they don't even feel comfortable having me stay in our local hospital after 6 months. They are afraid that if it ruptures they won't be able to get to the hospital in time to save me; let alone the babies. They are talking about sending me to a hospital an hour and a half away at around 6 months and having me stay the duration of the pregnancy. Apparently that hospital has a Perinatologist in the hospital 24 hours a day. They would be able to get me to the Operating Room within minutes rather than waiting half an hour to an hour for a doctor to get there and then figure out what's going on. I can see why that's necessary and I trust my doctors but I don't want to be that far away from Jack. I already know I'm going to be depressed. In the past I've had a hard time being in the hospital for a night, let alone months. Maybe they'll sedate me.

Hang in there, baby girl. Everyone we know is praying for you and the babies.

You're right, Jack is cute.

I'm sorry to hear this Cassie, but take charge of the situation and stay positive. It can be a wonderful learning experience for Jack rather than a sad one. Say to yourself "do we want theses babies?" "YES", then you'll do what ever it takes to keep them and yourself safe for hubby and Jack. Many hospitals have a little library or Internet station, we can still blog, save coins from now on for it and make it your "able to blog" jar! The time will fly. Stay strong and don't worry to much ok, I'm thinking of you.
