so i went for my weekly ultrasound and i went down to 9cm of fluid so now i'm under 10% again mind you 50% is normal ugg. it is so frustrating i'm doing everything i can but i don't know that it is gonna make the difference.. at least i'm over 30 weeks now so that is better than i was and my dr's goal was at least 32 to lessen the problems so hopefully i can at least hold out until 36 thats my personal goal. so only time will tell the ultrasound tech did say it looks like she is already running out of room so that may be a concern down the line since there is not much fluid..on a good note she is doing what they call practice breathing wich is good it shows that the lungs are developing so that was a little relief...and she is about 2lbs give or take..so i will keep trecking on with bedrest and head back to dr on monday for my twice weekly appt's thanks for letting me ramble on!

I was wondering about you too, and how things were going. So sorry to hear the fluid levels are down again. But, just keep doing what you're doing. Try taking warm baths too. I did that every day, as I read that was supposed to help regulate fluid levels (my twins had TTTS, and one of the things that causes is too much fluid for one baby and not enough for the other). I would just lay in the tub, kind of bumped over onto one side. I hope the next few weeks go by quickly for you, and that you're able to incubate that baby girl as long as you need to!!

I have been thinking about you! Glad to hear that the baby is doing well at least. You are in my prayers and just keep telling that little one to hang on just a bit longer.
