so...2 weeks 6 days at least

34 weeks is the goal (MY Ob wants 35 b/c before that, he won't deliver me, he will transport me back to the hospital with the other Ob)

32 weeks means generally they can hold their temp and with the steroids have a better chance at breathing on their own...also, the chances of defects/illness is almost none!

34 weeks is all of the above PLUS they generally have the suck/swallow relfex (sometimes comes in between 32-34 weeks) and they need that of course to be able to eat on their own.

35 weeks is of course much safer (esp. since MY OB was going to deliver me between 35-36 weeks) and all the time the Peanuts spend inside mommy of course is better. :-D

hopefully keeping them baking until March 4th (thats the earliest date at which MY Ob will deliver me)

so here's to being on strict bedrest for the next 2 weeks and 6 days!
