IT's ALMOST TIME!

35 Weeks
We've been having some complications so I thought this would be a good place to share what's going on. It's easy to forget who you've talked to and what all has already been said. This way, I can post and my friends and family can check in to see what's been going on. Then if something is forgotten, I can go back and add or update the details.

Written by Kristi's mom...Alivia's Mimi ..Kristi will update and add when she gets home from hospital.

It's almost time for Alivia to get here. Not sure what each day holds at this point. Kristi has been in the hospital since Saturday night. She began having pains in her lower abdomen but they didn't feel like contractions. She said they felt like the pains she had when she had the cysts early in the pregnancy. The cysts should not have come back 1-this quick and 2-during pregnancy. But they did. When she arrived at the hospital they confirmed that she wasn't in labor. An ultrasound showed the cysts, estimated at that time to be only 5 cm (2 in.) and it was not twisted or expected to rupture.

Sunday...still in hospital. Trying to get the pain under control so that Kristi could go home without having to do emergency c-section and remove cyst. She was on morphine and the pain subsided for a couple of hrs. Then it came back with a vengence. They began a continuous drip of morphine and she was finally able to get some comfort. It was expected that later Sunday evening they would try to wean her off the drip and see if she could get comfort from oral pain meds. Nope. Didn't work.
