alright guys, we were trying to keep this under wraps until everything calmed down and it has somewhat. I am 32 weeks and 3 days pregnant and on wednesday night after church my water broke. After rushing to the er they told me i was 1cm and 50% thinned. i was having contractions 45 seconds apart. after spending all night in the labor room my contractions slowed and our little John was not in any distress and thankfully didnt make an appearance, so we were moved to a room in the delivery recovery unit at holston valley. The goal is to hold off labor until 34 weeks, allowing for his lungs to develop more as well as his stomach. We have been told that every day he stays inside me is 3 less days in the NICU. as of right now everything is stable. his heart rate is perfect and he is still moving constantly. Weve done so well here that they took off the contraction and heartrate monitors yesterday and took my IV out last night. Now, I will NOT be going home until he is born. hopefully we can keep him in for as long as possible but at this point one of the biggest fears is infection since my water broke fully wednesday night. we will try to keep everyone updated through fb but we ask that people dont bombard our phones as this is a very stressfull time. I am somewhat limited on visitors because they want to try and keep me calm and relaxed, but as long as my visitors are not loud and as long as they is only a few at a time that can stay out of the way of nurses, they said that i can have them. I am in room 36A on floor three at holston valley and like i said i will be here until I deliver so that can be anywhere between a few days to a month. just please keep me and Tim in your prayers. God has helped get us this far, we know that He will take care of our little John
