Trip to the doctor


Today was the big trip to the OB, and this is about as exciting as things get for Kelly right now.

Here she is on the way out the door...

Results of the doctor visit:
1) Robert (actually his little heart beat) still sounds good
2) Kelly is doing fine as well
3) Kelly took another fetal fibronectin test. We will get the results tomorrow, but if they come back negative (we hear tomorrow) it would suggest that she will not go into labor for the next week.
4) We have another apointment on Thursday. Kelly will be at 33 weeks then. The doctor said it might be possible to head home early next week if everything stays stable. We would do a little outing, maybe back to Sonoma since it is within a 30 minute drive of the hospital, to she how she does sitting and riding for a few short hours. If that causes lots of contractions it would be unlikely we could head hom soon, so this will be sort of a trial.

Tomorrow we have a ultrasound tomorrow at the hospital, so Kelly gets another outing!

We really appreciate each comment and post on this blog... and of course all the thoughts and prayers. We have seen evidence of the Lord taking care of us and Robert through this time in big ways and in small ways.

Hey guys, we've been praying for you. That sure would be great if the Lord allowed you to come home and have a Texas baby! We'll be praying that the trial car ride goes well and that all the test results are positive too.

Really happy for the good news. We pray that tomorrow's news will also be just as positive.

Say hi to Kelly's mom for us. We continue to pray for a safe delivery of Robert whether it is in California or in Texas.
