ONE YEAR AGO TODAY


My how time flies (kind of, not really)! Exactly one year ago today, I went up for a routine non-stress test for the twins when I was almost 32 weeks along. The non-stress test indicated that Baby B's (Lucy) heart rate was decelerating periodically. They did not want to send me home, but were not alarmed either. They sent me to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center for 24 hour monitoring. That turned into 2 1/2 weeks of me hooked up to two fetal monitors while Shane kept everything under control at home. Lucy's heart rate continued to dip a little here and a little there, enough to make the perinatologist think it best that I stay in the hospital. It was a rough 2 1/2 weeks and felt like two months.


Funny, I look back on it now as a beautiful time and wish I could visit the hospital again just to reminisce and remember that special time right before the twins were born.
