Bad Night

Sunday night was a bad one. Over the weekend Michelle's magnesium had been dropped from 1.8 to 1.6, then on Sunday afternoon down to 1.4. She was stable for several hours, but then began bleeding a lot. They immediately put her on the monitor, but as I understand it didn't bump her magnesium back up until late into the night. She started having contractions a couple hours after the bleeding started. They finally increased her magnesium to 2.0, but the contractions continued until they administered a shot of terbutaline as well. Throughout today she was pretty stable, but just now, at 9pm Monday night, the bleeding started up again with her magnesium still at 2.0. Not sure what to expect tonight.

Thinking of you both big time at the moment as you navigate this time together.

Please post an update whenever you get a chance. We all love you guys and are praying fervently that things will calm down with Michelle's body and that little Alicia will be safe and keep growing healthily.
