    She is in a hospital that is 4 hours away; she wanted us to be there when she gets back. Cause she has been having problems with her pregnancy. She needs to be at a special hospital

    oh so scary... how many weeks is she? is she still having kidney problems?

    good luck to her and the baby, i hope everything goes well. If the baby doesn't require surgery, will it have to stay in NICU for a while anyway?

    Yes she is still having kidney problems. Some fluid is getting backed up. So that's why they might have to do surgery

    how far along is she in her pregnancy? if your sister is having problems, they may have to get the baby out before it's too late for both of them. there's often some fear for the baby's lung development, and thus they do some little bits of medical miracle science. we had those fears with my first baby, when they had to induce early, and ultimately have an emergency c-section. doctors mostly have that baby thing all sewn up. the labor and delivery people are the most hopeful and determined people on the planet.

    yeah, the baby will likely be fine, especially if mama's body has been stressed. the little angels develop their lungs faster.

    likely she will need a c-section.

    Think positive and hope for the best. Whatever is supposed to happen will. But I will think about her anyway.

    You will be an aunt soon:)

    They’re going to try to induce labor. If that doesn’t work then a c section

    I was there too. That gel works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't.

    I'm sorry you are worrying. That is so hard to do when you can't be there to hold their hand.
