Unfortunately my pre-e is not holding off. My levels of protein are getting to a scary point and my Dr. says we are going to deliver at 32 weeks. Thats Monday! I'm kinda freaking out, yet I know this is what is best for the health of all three of us. My DH and I are going to tour the NICU tomorrow I hope I am able to hold myself together in there!
I will update once my boys are here, pleae keep us in your thoughts!

Good luck with the delivery. Enjoy meeting your little ones for the first time!
Beautiful pics Tonya. Hope all is well with everyone else. I have an ultrasound on Tuesday. Can't wait to see the babe!
Soooo.... after my Dr. scared my half to death by giving me a delivery date she decided against it. I am relieved and happy yet also annoyed at the additional stress I had to go through all weekend. Another Dr. on the team has said that he has got women in my condition way farther than I am and we will closely monitor versus ruch to making any decisions. So now I have no idea when my boys will be here but I told the Dr.s that I plan on hanging onto these guys until at least 34 weeks!
Yesterday my DH and I had a tour of the NICU. It was super intense! There are about 15 babies in there currently. The nurse giving the tour says do you want to see a 32 weeker ?(I was exactly 32 weeks and almost had them that day). I immediatley started balling but looked at the baby anyways, She was soo tiny but looked like a beautiful little doll. I thought i could hold myself together in there but its soo hard to see this little baby that is the same age as the babies in my belly.
Thanks for the good wishes, I will update if anything changes, though I am determined to keep these babies right here with momma for at least two more weeks!!

Dillysgirl I'm relieved that you don't have to deliver yet. I would be curious to see what 32 weekers look like. I hope you make it at least two more weeks. You r in my prayers.
I am happy to announce that my little boys arrived safely on May 18th @ 11:51pm. Both were born in the same minute! I was scheduled for a c-section for Monday the 24th of May when I would be 35 weeks but my little ones choose their own day instead @ 34w2d.
Hendrix Harte is my big boy and he weighed 5lbs 8 oz, 19 inches long. Brother, Halen Peter weighed 4lbs 8oz and 17 inches long. They are both in the NICU but doing well. Hendrix is already eating and Halen will be there soon.
I had a great C-section. The nurse I grew closest with at the hospital was my ob nurse and the rest of the crew of about ten were all fun and silly people. It makes me happy that my babies were born into a room filled with Joy and laughter, as we were having a good time! Nothing like what I had ever expected.
The only word to describe this wonderful feeling of being a parent is Bliss! I am soo grateful that this dream became a reality for me. I am sooooo in love!!!!
Everyone else should be getting close and I look forward to hearing of your babies arrivals!

Sancap and I were asked to be a part of a series on WE TV called "The Fertility Chase". It is a two part special on couples who face fertility issues and what steps they take to fulfill their dreams of starting a family. The first part airs on WE TV this Saturday at 8:30 a.m. EST/6:30 a.m. MST and the second part will air next Saturday.
However, if you don't get WE TV or are not awake at the crack of dawn, you can view our video clip on their website. Go to the www.thefertilitychase.com, click "VIDEOS" at the top, If you want to see my video, scroll down to the 2nd row of videos and you will see my DH's picture and the title "Male Infertility - Spinal Cord Injury". Click the words and the video will play.

First CONGRATS Dillysgirl!!!!!!!!!!! It sounds like your delivery went awesome and babies are healthy, what more can you ask for!!! I am soooo happy for you!
Tonya- your pics are beautiful!!!
Hope all is well with everyone else! We are getting close, I am sooo excited. Just packed my hosiptal bag this weekend and had a little freak out session with DH (an "OMG I can't believe this" type of session...nothing bad).
How's everyone's pregnancies going? Mine has actually been very easy, I can't really complain. Discomfort here and there but for the most part baby is health and growing perfectly so I am happy! Just can't wait to meet him now!
