Home Sweet Piedmont!

Well, we are on day 14 of Bedrest with sweet baby Baker. Bill and I (and Aunt Jessica) went in for our routine Ultrasound on Thursday, December 16th and were surprised to find out that my fluids were dangerously low and that we were being admitted to Piedmont Hospital. Thank goodness Jessica was there, she showed us where to go and made sure everyone was taking good care of me. What a great sister?!!

After the initial shock wore off, we were settled in our room with the best nurses ever. Vernice, Pookie and Miss Byrd have taken great care of me along with many other wonderful people. I have been overwhelmed with the support of so many friends and of course my wonderful family. Ashley and Chris were some of my first visitors and Alli and Mimi came down to stay with me for a few days, that sure did make the days go by fast! Mimi has made the most amazing food for all of us and has been taking such great care of us! Pop Pops has come to visit a lot and Grandma and Grandpa Weatherford have been so amazing with all that they have done for us. Thanks, my little Christmas Elves.

We checked my fluid levels on Monday the 20th, which were at 3 on Thursday the 16th, and were so excited to find that they had gone up to 7! Yay, we were going home for Christmas! After 2.5 glorious days of bedrest at the gorgeous Weatherford home, we went back to check in on our little guy only to find that my darn levels had dropped again. Merry Christmas, Piedmont!! We missed you! :-)

Our First White Christmas was spent in room #288, where our stockings were hung with care. Santa found us and we got so many wonderful things! The cafeteria even had a special menu for Christmas-woohoo!! All of my sisters and mommie came to see us on Sunday and came in wearing the Christmas Pajamas that we love so much. It was so nice of everyone to make a day of driving down to visit, it meant the absolute world to me!

My fluids have continued to remain low, so Dr. Gomez (or Dr. Huxtable) has said that I should settle in nicely and the get used to being here at Piedmont for a while. We have an ultrasound on Thursday 12/30, so hopefully Baker has some more room to swim! We'll keep you posted!! Until then, Keep Baking, Baker!!!
