Appt #2

Just a quick update! Went to our doctors appt last week and had our sono. The baby looked good but didnt cooperate with pictures. The doctor was looking for defects of any kind, and to check for downs syndrome or trisomy 13 or 18. To check he needed to measure the back of the babies neck. The baby was really active but would not turn around for the measurement. So we will have to go back in the next week or two to have the scan redone. Already stubborn:) But he was able to tell us that there were four chambers in the heart and that there was no gastroschesis , which is great as well. So we were really happy to see the baby again, but we didnt get any good pictures. I apparently have a big fibroid tumor that grows with pregnancy hormones so it was hard to see the baby. We will have to continue to monitor the tumor to make sure it doesnt interfere with the babies growth . Our regular doctor appt is tuesday of this next week and im sure to learn more details about the tumor at this appt. So here is the only picture we have, we joke because it looks like the baby is wearing a mask. I promise to post a better picture after our next sono. Everything else is going great, we are looking forward to seeing everyone for the holidays. We plan on decorating the house for the first time and I am so excited. Happy early Thanksgiving to everyone.
