No significant update

I went to the specialist today. David wasn't able to go with me but I am glad that my mother-in-law was able to accompany me. They did another ultrasound where they checked the flow of the umbilical cord, flow through the brain, and flow from the kidney to the heart. He scored 8/8 on his BioPhysical Profile and all of the flows were great. Amniotic fluid was at a great level. They didn't measure his weight because they like to wait 10 days between measuring weight. I, on the other hand, have dropped one pound and my BP was 112/60! We go to my regular OB on Thursday and back to this specialist on Friday. The nurse practictioner that we saw today mentioned that the specialist might discuss doing an amnio to check for lung development. Please continue to pray that he gains weight and please pray that we won't need to do an amnio. Thanks!

  1. Still praying Stefanie. You know how redheads are - just plain stubborn and like a lot of attention. Can't wait till he get on this side of the belly!
