An Update

First of all, I want to say thank you for the kind comments and e-mails about my previous post. This morning I went in bright and early for my more intense glucose test. It was pretty much the same as last time, I just had to fast before hand and they took my blood 4 times instead of just the once (before I drank the sugar water, an hour after, 2 hours after, and 3 hours after). My Doctor just called me and said the test results came back beautifully, there is no sign of diabetes. She said she also had them do a rhogam anti-bodies test to make sure my body was responding to the shot properly and that that wasn't a danger to the baby, and those results came back perfect too. So now we're still in the "What's causing the Polyhydramnios?" phase. Again, I can be in the 50% of cases where they never find the reason, or the baby could have anatomical, chromosomal, or neurological abnormalities. There could also be problems with my heart, kidneys, and/or placenta. She said usually the problems involve the GI tract or there is a bowel obstruction, but she said everything looked good with him when she did the ultrasound. She told me she hasn't been sleeping the past 2 nights because she's so worried about me and baby. That was sweet of her to say, but again not something you want to hear from your doctor. She said when I go in Tuesday morning I'll have another non-stress test and ultrasound, then we have to have a serious discussion about having an amniocentesis. I am so scared of that! But basically, we have to drain off the excess fluid ASAP. She said they will also give me a shot to help little boys lungs mature faster just in case he is born pre-maturely. I'm just scared and sad right now, but trying to stay happy. Besides feeling heavy I feel fine, and I still feel him being as active as ever. I just want him to be healthy and strong. I believe in the power of prayer, and appreciate all that are offered on my family's behalf.
