Edit: Baby B moves again

I don't know when or why it happened again, but Baby B is Breech.  Breech Baby B (BBB) will be awarded the "B" name we have picked out.

But, what I really want to say is that B stands for Blessed.  All the doctors are astounded I am still here, and the babies are still tucked up inside of me.  The doctor today mentioned that over 95% of women in my circumstance would have delivered by now.  I have never had any red flags with bloodwork (and believe me, they've taken a lot of blood) or vitals, and the babies have never had any sign of stress.  I am blessed to be a part of this miracle.  I feel certain that it is a result of the many, many prayers offered for me and the boys.  Thanks for all your faith and prayers.

The doctors assume we have saved each baby 3-4 weeks in the NICU by keeping me from delivering, and lots of possible long-term problems.  It really is a huge miracle.

And yes, until further notice I am STILL in the hospital.  They are hopeful I can leave to stay at my sister's soon, but at least for today, I think I'll be here.

Will they do a c-section if Baby B remains breech? That's how my baby b was, all tucked up nestling his bum into my rib cage. It was beyond painful! I'm sure you are ready to be done by now. Hang in there! It will definitely be worth it :D

Maybe baby B will be your gymnast - or able to get into places you never thought possible. Glad things are going well (all things considered).

Hooray for keeping those babies safe inside! I'm so glad everything has worked out so well. So did they end up taking you off of the medicine that keeps you from going into labor?
