An update on life- I’ve gotten some DMs because I haven’t posted anything since early July about ending up in the hospital. 💜 I’m so sorry! Instagram is always the first platform to go when my plate gets too full.

Short version: we were in the hospital on bedrest for 4 weeks, and sent home for continued bedrest. Barring labor doesn’t come sooner, she will be delivered via c-section at 38 weeks, September 1st!

Long detailed version: I was admitted to the hospital for being dilated AND almost fully effaced at 28 weeks. No actual labor had begun though, so I was diagnosed with an incompetent cervix (who names this stuff??? Let’s not forget I am also “geriatric” 🙄). Being in the hospital on bedrest is mentally draining... being ISOLATED in the hospital on bedrest due to the pandemic (luckily my husband was able to come stay with me at night when he got off work, but no other visitors allowed) was VERY mentally and emotionally draining. Most days, I cried and slept the day away, despite the amazing friends and family who reached out constantly to check on me and showered me with food and gifts. Everyone told me to keep busy- but between the deafening quiet, the white walls, the uncomfortable bed, and the nurses checking on me... it was impossible to focus on much of anything.

I was so thankful that after 4 weeks of no physical changes, they released me early to go home for more bedrest. My head and heart needed it more than I can explain. I’ve been home two weeks now and even though I still can’t DO anything (no nesting!!!!), I am in a much better headspace. After another ultrasound last week, it was determined that the umbilical cord vessels actually run through the membrane of her sac to reach the placenta which can be dangerous to her during labor and birth (called velamentous cord insertion), so we have a scheduled c-section for September 1st. This next month, I’ll be chained to my laptop (because it’s about all I can do anyway, haha) to work on that product creation to-do list before this precious baby girl gets here, and then life really will be ALL about her! 💜

There’s a good reason I fell off the map for a hot minute in the last two weeks... a 28 week ultrasound showed signs of preterm labor so I’ve been ordered to hospital bed rest for a month. I got meds for me and her and it helped - hoping everything stays stable and quiet (so far so good) and I’ll be able to go home for bed rest until week 35. 10 days down. 20 more to go here at the hospital. Keep baking, baby girl!!
