I just received a newer update. Doctors have moved Tiffany back into Labor/Delivery due to her bleeding. She’s been placed back on the 24/7 monitors to watch Emma’s heart rate and contraction levels. Tiffany is back on the IV. Baby Emma, according to doctors, will be premature. At this time they do not know how soon they will need to take Baby Emma from the womb. They told Tiffany that so far she and Baby Emma are doing great, but the concern is there.
We are all praying Soldier Dad (((((Hugs)))))
UPDATE #1.......
CURRENT UPDATE: Tiffany and Emma The doctors at Shands/UF Hospital have moved Tiffany to a different room so that she is closer to the examination room. She is being examined two times daily. Baby Emma has a strong heartbeat (140’s). Currently there are no plans to deliver Baby Emma by C-Section. However, Tiffany’s chronic bleeding, if it worsens, may change this. The real concern is the possibility of the placenta fully detaching (apparently there is a partial detachment), known as a Placental Abruption. With this, there is a danger to both the mother and the baby. Tiffany loses fluid and blood whenever Emma moves around too much. If a full detachment occurs they will have to take Baby Emma by C-Section.
Doctors are hoping for the best, and that they can keep Baby Emma inutero until at least 32-34 weeks gestation. Doctors stated that, “everything changes every 12 to 24 hours. Tiffany is not allowed to leave the hospital until Emma is born. Bob (her husband), their three boys, and Tiffany’s dad were in to visit, and got to hear Emma’s heartbeat. At which time Gabe (the youngest of the twins) said tjat he was Tiffany’s doctor.
Please ping the prayer warriors. The danger to Tiffany and Baby Emma is significant.
