Guest guest Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 She was due at the end of this month but I don't think they are trying to stop labor at this point. Thank you for showing your concern. Norma -- Prayers please As some of you know my daughter in law is expecting twins. We got some bad news tonight. She is in labor, but the babies lungs are not developed enough to be born. Apparently the technician missed seeing that the babies aren't growing the way they should be. Their abdomens are smaller than they should be. She is on steroids to speed up their lungs developing. If they haven't developed enough by Saturday they will have to go to Vancouver for special treatment. I was afraid this would happen because she has smoked from day one of the pregnancy. I'm hoping and praying that the twins will be ok. Please remember them in your prayers. I don't want to lose my grandchildren. :-( Norma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Thank you Janet. It is much appreciated. Norma -- Re: Prayers please Norma,Prayers and loving thoughts for your dil, babies and family.Janet1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain health conditions or just dangerous in general.2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation better.Have a nice day everyone.
