Quick Baby Update #11

The specialist didn't have any different information than before. The baby is small, but her environment is good. She is measuring in the 6th percentile and may weigh about 4 lbs to 4 lbs 10oz. She has only gained about a pound in 6 weeks which is not great. The doctor was expecting her to be bigger. So, now we wait for the amniocentesis on Monday and go from there.
