It *may* be time to evict TBR.

It was one heck of an appointment today so I will try not to leave anything out.

My Hemoglobin only rose slightly, to 98.  She will check it again and if it still doesn’t improve then it’s time to call the big guns.  I will get either pills or injections of some animal red blood.  I don’t remember what it’s called.

I’m losing weight and my measurements are also going downhill.  Given our history of placental failure that’s likely what’s going on again.  With my Hemoglobin being so low it’s not helping matters.

She is not happy with the results of TBR’s kick counts.  I had Thing 1 with me and had I not I would have been admitted to the Hospital right then and there.  This still may happen as early as today but I’ll get into that in a second.

I’m on bedrest completely now.  I can drop off or pick up the kids as needed but that’s it.  I’m not to be the primary caregaver anymore until TBR comes.  I should try to lie down as much as possible and even better yet sleep, but I can sit on the couch and watch TV, or sit outside and watch Hubby play with the kids etc but I can’t do anything.

We have an ultrasound early next week to check for growth.

I am to do kick counts around the clock.  This is where she expects to see me at the Hospital and she bets money it will be today but I hope not.  Mom can’t come until the middle of next week so we would like to hold off until then.  Dr. A is off next week too so she hopes things don’t get worse while she’s gone.  She wants TBR to come either before or preferably after next week.  Anyways, If I don’t get 6 large movements each and every 2 hour period then I’m in the hospital and we’ll assess if it’s time.

What a lot to digest.
