26w0d: For the exception of more contractions on Sunday night and being totally exhausted on Monday and Tuesday the week went well. I had a doctors appointment this morning and I had my Gestational Diabetes test after that. Dr. Prema said I look very rested and she was happy with that. Mya's heartbeat was 151 bpm. She said everyday that Mya is not born is a million dollars to us. She said that most likely if I make it that far that she will plan the C-Section somewhere between 34 and 36 weeks. So that is the end of June, the beginning of July. We have enough birthdays in June so I am shooting for July. Plus it is crazy to think that Eddie and I will be parents in 8-10 weeks. I have more blood work to do next week to check for Toxin levels given off from Sophia. In two weeks we go see Dr. Shah again then the week after back to Prema. So that is that for now. Lets hope to make it through another week.

25w0d: To start we have a middle name. Mya Quinn Beserra! What do you think? So Tuesday I had some contractions for about an hour and half. We went and had them monitored and everything seems to be fine. Dr. Prema says they seemed to be Braxton Hicks Contractions. They did a test and said I should not go into labor within the next two weeks. So that is good. I followed up with Dr. Prema on Wednesday she said I still need to rest but I can be out of bed. That was great news. Tonight we saw Dr. Tabsh at UCLA/Santa Monica last time we saw him we waited 3 hours to see him. This time we were there appointment and all for one hour. That was nice. We got an Ultrasound picture tonight and it looks like she is giving us a thumbs up. I hope to post that soon. This week Mya seems to be moving more and more. She had me up for a half hour this morning around 4am. So that is this week. Our next appointment is next Friday with Dr. Prema where I will take my glucose test.

24w0d: Well this has been an interesting two weeks to say the least. I have been put on bed rest. I am allowed out of bed for four hours every other day. Our goal is just to keep Mya growning for as long as possible. So that is what I do now. We had our monthly appointment as scheduled with Doctor Shah today. We checked Mya, she as always is a very active baby. She now weights 1 lb 6 oz. She is measuring 1w1d larger then her due date. I am scheduled to go back to Doctor Shah on May 9th. So that is that for now. Since I have been on bedrest I have now taken up scapbooking. That has taken a ton of my time up. I have everything near the bed so I can get to it. So that is that. Post again next week as week have an appointment scheduled at UCLA/Santa Monica.
