Please keep my sister, Whitney, and Baby Boy Worrell in your prayers. He is trying to come early and we sure don't want that. Whit was taken out of work and put on bed rest last week since Baby Worrell is a bit on the small side. She has a non-stress test (this is to be sure the baby isn't under any stress) every Tuesday and an Ultrasound every Friday now until the baby is born. She will also go to Norfolk tomorrow for some more extensive testing since they have a bit more technology there. Y'day when she went in for the non-stress test, they discovered on the monitor that she was having contractions. She didn't feel these so they were mild. But of course they put her in the hospital to be monitored all day. Contractions started back y'day afternoon so they gave her 3 shots to stop them. Then last night, they did a profile ultrasound. Everything looked just fine with those results, in fact she got 8 out of 8 which is the highest you can score. I'm not sure what that means but it is good news and that's what we wanted to hear. Although Baby Boy Worrell is small, everything else looks great with him, his heart rate is good, all his little parts are developing, and he is moving around like crazy Whitney says. Please keep them in your prayers along with my family who is helping her out with everything and don't forget our sweet big brother Tucker.

Charlie sent me this y'day...she will probably kill me when she sees I posted it...LOL!

Being pregnant is a very stressful situation anyway, but knowing things are not going as perfectly as they could adds too it. I hope Whitney will get lots of rest and I pray Baby Worrell will hang in there alot longer. Take care of little sis!
I will definately keep you all in my prayers! I hope by Whitney getting some extra rest, that Baby Boy Worrell will wait a little longer! Tell her to take good care of herself!!!
I started having contractions around the same time during my second pregnancy...and they had to give me the shots to stop the concractions as well. I was on bed rest for 6 weeks....and was supposed to be in a wedding...it all worked out great....I actually went over my due date two days....I will keep her and Baby in my prayers. Rest is the best thing, but it is easier said than done with another child at home. I am sure Tucker loves to wait on his Mommy.
Bless her heart! We will all be praying for her and the family!
We will be praying for your sister and the family...
I will keep her in my thoughts and prayers. I am sure he will be fine.
I will be praying for your sister and Baby Boy Worrell. My neighbor just went through almost the exact same thing, but she went to term and delivered a sweet baby boy. Hope Whitney can get some rest and things will calm down.
I'll be praying for her.
My thoughts and prayers will be with Whitney and Baby boy Worrell. Rest/Rest......
