We had a great Doctors appointment today! We spent almost 2 hours in the office but we got to see our sweet little boy!
Ok first we met with the Fetal Heart Specialist and she spent a lot of time looking at every angle of Eastons heart, measuring and evaluating. After almost an hour of that the report is that there was nothing abnormal that can be seen and looks like a strong healthy heart! They might monitor his heart a little closer when he is born than normal just to make sure they do not hear anything abnormal , but otherwise we can BREATHE!
After we met with her we met with the high risk Doctor and had a growth sonogram done. He is weighing in at 4lb and his head, arms & legs and everything all measure about 2 weeks ahead,so he is going to be a big boy! His head is down and he is definitely an active little toot!
Both Dr's had to chase him to get measurements because he was kicking and wiggling so much!
Both Drs agree that it looks like we have a normal healthy fat little boy!
We were so excited to see his little fat cheeks, and to see him grabbing his toes with his little hands! Now we are REALLY ready for him to be here.
We got a clear view of his cleft lip and we have a good idea of what it will look like when he is born, which makes us feel a lot better to have seen it.
My blood pressure was pretty high, and they did warn me to be prepared that if it continues on this trend we will probably have to deliver early. But in the mean time Im still monitoring it and paying attention. Next week (2/15) I will go to my regular OB for a BP check and reg appointment and then (2/16) we will go back to the high risk to listen to baby and monitor his movement and BP check with them too.
We are so humbled by all the support and love and prayers! Things are definitely looking up, God is good and is taking good care of us! We can't wait to meet our sweet boy, but in the meantime we have a baby shower to prepare for! :)
