Dr. Campbell came in early this morning. He recommended that we go ahead and transfer to UK because he thought it would be the best place for the babies if/when they come out early. Lisa and I agreed.
They didn't waste much time. Lisa took her 2nd ambulance ride within the past two weeks over to UK. Lisa went through her orientation and assessment in the Triage room where she spent her first six hours on an examination table. Dr. Gianferrari performed an ultrasound. Not much has changed with her cervix. She is still dilated, and there is not much cervix wall thickness. Another, more in-depth, ultrasound is scheduled for tomorrow. Blood was drawn and cultures were taken.
Dr. Elisa Gianferrari and Dr. Wendy Hansen will be Lisa's doctors. Dr. Nirmala Desai will be the Neonatologist for the twins.
Lisa is now in room HA335. It is a nice room, but we have been spoiled by St. Joe's. There are some really nice rooms on the other side of the hall that we think we may get transferred to later. UK's labor and delivery hall is very busy. We have a small window in our room that I can peer out and see Commonwealth Stadium. If Lisa can hold out for full term, I could walk to 3 home football games from here. I could expose the twins to tailgating right out of the womb.
Lisa is in good spirits. She is much stronger than me.
Keep us in your prayers. All 100 doctors that we have seen these last 3 weeks have said that every day the babies can stay in there is very important. We must get to 24 weeks and preferably 28+ weeks.
In honor of being in UK's hospital, we have decided to name our boys... Rajon and Tayshaun :)
