Baby Update #6




Good news! The baby looks wonderful! We went to the specialist today and had an ultrasound done. They can do some amazing stuff! Turns out that she is just small. The blood flow is normal, her heart is awesome and I have enough amniotic fluid for her to swim around in. They will, however, continue to monitor her growth to make sure she is growing. Because she is measuring so small, but my dates are right on, they will chart her growth on a curve from now on. I will have many more ultrasounds until she is born, which I love because its fun to see her. I go in for a follow up appointment next Thursday, then another growth ultrasound the week after that. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers!
