Jen admitted


Jen was put in the hospital on Tuesday night around 3:00 because her water broke. After some very anxious and stressful moments, we were able to determine that Jen would be put on bed rest until the baby was born.

She was given a steroid shot to help the baby develop their lungs. This is the first of two shots. The second shot is Wednesday at 5:00. She was also given antibiotics to help reduce the infection. After 48 hours from her second shot, the steroids will help the lungs to withstand the outside pressure .

Jen is currently 30 weeks and an ideal situation would be 34 weeks.

Ryann and I are off to see mom so I will update when I get home.
