Out of the Hospital for now

Well, its been crazy around here these past few days so I haven't been able to post recently. We are out of the hospital and at home now(as of Thursday afternoon). Carrie is on bedrest and taking medication here at the house to control her contractions. The doctor is trying to buy as much time as he can and we will go in for an appointment this Wednesday. It's looking like we might not make our September 22 scheduled c-section. So, for now everything is up in the air and we just taking it one day at a time. Thanks for your continued prayers.

Blessings,
Todd

Day 2

Well we made it through the night with some contractions the medicine is keeping them under control and making them less frequent. This morning we started a new pill that seems to be working better at controlling the contractions. We are going to be staying tonight and then re-evaluating in the morning. Whenever we get to go home Carrie will be on bed rest for at least week. That's all for now.

Contractions and more contractions

Just a quick update for everyone, Carrie started having contractions this morning at about 11:30 and after a quick doctors visit where we found out she was dialated to about 1 and it really was contractions she was having we ended up in the hospital this afternoon. The doctor is giving her medicine to stop the contractions as well as steroids to help the development of the baby's lungs. While the baby would be ok if he was born now the doctor really wants to wait as long as he can. It's now 11 PM and the first shot to stop the contractions lasted about 3 hours and ever since then the shots have been working for about an hour and a half. The next step is magnesum hopefully we won't have to go that route. Well, that all for now I'm going to try to get some sleep in that very uncomfortable looking chair in the corner. I'll post more tomorrow but for now keep us in your prayers.
