28 Weeks!

Our first goal was to make it to the 24 week mark and our second goal was to make it to the 28 week mark. Today we have hit 28 weeks! Dillon is down here for the weekend so we decided to tour the NICU.  Hopefully we do not need to be there, but just in case we wanted to be prepared.  The NICU moved just over a year ago to a different floor of the hospital and got all new equipment. It seemed to be staffed with plenty of nurses and the equipment looked top notch which calmed some of my nerves if our babies have to spend some time there. We also had a NICU doctor come chat with us a little bit and talk us through what a 28 weaker's stay in the NICU would look like.  Both Dillon and I were very encouraged with what he had to say and now knowing the difference between being born at 24 weeks or 28 weeks, has made these past four weeks in the hospital well worth it!

We have made it to 28 weeks, but we know that the babies still need many more weeks to develop fully. We ask for prayers that my body cooperates, the contractions slow down and that these babies stay put for a little longer.
