35675HI Monika, good to hear that things have improved for Debbie, I had been wondering. It seems Sweetpea will stay in her pod a bit longer...ggg it's too cold at the moment.... Continuing to say prayers for you all.
12407If I figured the timing from the posts correctly, she is at the 28th week gestation now, full term being 40 weeks, so doctor only wanting to see her back in the office every 3 weeks is a fantastic improvement! Prayers have definitely been heard! Thank You so much for the regular updates it helps all of us, who worrying and praying for your whole family. Pam

122864Dear Monika, I do pray that Debbie's newest results will level out her blood pressure. Prayers have been said for her and 'sweetpea'. One of Amy's friends had a baby at 26 weeks and he is now a healthy 5 year old! Medical procedures have come so far. Prayers for you too to be a calming influence in their lives. Love and blessings Chris

today she is good , she rested all weekend ,its just getting through each day one day at a time Thank you for your kindness
59631My thoughts and prayers are with Debbie and the baby and please tell her nothing is more important than her health
76409Prayers are being said world wide for Debbie and tiny sweet pea. Hoping that she can keep the symptoms from spiking back up again. Every day from now, to when the baby will be born, is huge in the babies development. It is a difficult journey when little ones are born in the 24th-26th weeks, but every single day the baby remains in the womb, the growth and chance of survival increases greatly. Praying that she can keep the symptoms from effecting the baby and that her work will be willing to help her work around her bodies limitations so she can continue to work. TED hose or compression hose may also help to keep her legs from swelling, too much and besides the low salt diet, sometimes cutting out caffeine may also help to reduce head pressure, especially if laying flat tends to increase the head pain that she is having. She may also benefit from sleeping in a recliner with the legs also elevated. The key is to try to keep the head above the heart and keeping her legs elevated as much as she is able. Hugs, and continual prayers, Pam

Thank you ,and yes she is doing all you have suggested , the compression stocking too ,at this time the dr is just try to get her to 30 weeks , and then each day after that will be a bonus she will rest as much as she can ,lucky her boss( a dentist) is her Obstetricians brother and they treat her as one of the family , she has been going to him for 17 years now so he knows Deb very well , he has been through this journey with her .he was told her last October she would probably never have children , so here we are now at 25 weeks , this is the most precious baby ,but being an older mum is proving a bit difficult right now ,I know there are many prayers for them both , and God is in control

78119Monika, I am glad you ask for prayers for Debbie and the baby. I see its been 18 hours since you posted, so hopefully by now they have admitted her, to keep a watch on the baby and her. They, and you, are in my thoughts and prayers. Stressful and exciting times- Please keep us updated, on the upcoming birth, of your grand baby. Toogie

360643Monika, I surely will pray for Debbie and your sweetpea. She still has a bit to go. I hope that the doctors can get her blood pressure under control and get the swelling down. Had Debbie gone on a salt restricted diet? It may help.
