28 Weeks


Look who's gettin' fancy, a picture. This was taken a couple of weeks ago, when one of Paula's doctors told her she could have outdoor priviledges. She really enjoyed that day, before her primary doctor told her she had no idea about the privilidges and asked that they stop.
I'm a day late with this, so let's make it 28 weeks and 1 day. This is one we have been looking towards for a while. Paula doesn't really know what to do now that it's here, so she decided to just lay down. We haven't had any measurements or real monitoring since I last updated, so all we really know is that the baby's still have heart beats, and they still move alot. In fact, Paula is convinced that one of them is going to stick a body part completely through her abdomem, and the other is going to collapse her bladder if he keeps kicking her there.


The plan is for her to go home at 30 weeks, but she will have to remain on strict bed rest. So, we will be sending out assignments to everyone to let you know when you are scheduled to be there for your shift. Of course I am kidding, but Paula has been putting together a strategic plan for when she gets to go home. She has been hanging in there pretty good, but she is ready to go home now. However, she will continue to stay here for another 2 weeks, but when the doctor asks her next time if she can maintain strict bed rest at home, I am 100% sure her answer will be yes. It may not be truthful, but it will be yes.


There is a chance the doctors may do some exams within the next week, if so I will update again at that time. If not, then I will update at 29 weeks.

Until next time,
Paula, Ryon, and The Boys

I'm so glad that you posted a picture. She looks just like I pictured her.....still skinny with just a basketball under her shirt. Keep hanging in there.

Love,
