Fetal EKG Part Two- 10 Weeks Left

Hi Everyone-
Just a quick update tonight. Tony and I went for the second Fetal EKG today. Everything is still looking good, except the Plumonary Valve is still looking thick, but the Cardiologist isn't to concern about it. He still wants to see her two weeks after she is born to perform an EKG. We already have that scheduled for June 18th. All and all things are looking good. We just pray that everything is good with her when she arrives. If anything seems wrong with her when she is born they could do an EKG right away. I don't have any worries about this happening, I'm optimistic that nothing will be wrong, my heart is telling me that. We are very lucky to have such great doctors and nurses helping us through this. They really know what they are talking about and everyone has a very positive outlook.

Thank you everyone for reading our blog and for your thoughts and prayers through everything. I can't believe we only have 10 weeks to go. I can't wait for everyone to meet her!!

Also Tony's appointment last week went really good. He will have to go for a routine MRI and stress test in the upcoming months just to make sure everything is going well.

Take Care and Happy Easter!

28 Weeks!

So I'm really 29 weeks, but this it's my 28 week update...I know it's been awhile since my last post, but there hasn't been a lot to report until last week. On Tuesday March 16th I went for my 28 week check-up. I had my Glucose test, this tests for gestational diabetes which can occur in some women when they are pregnant. My test came back negative, which is good. My doctor also said that she is measuring a week and half early...which would put her on track to be born around my dad's birthday; June 1st. My doctor still wants me to keep my due date of June 9th, but there is a possibility that she could come earlier. There is no concern that she is measuring bigger, it's better than being smaller. My next check will be at 31 weeks. Movement is pretty consistent now, I had my first big kick/punch last week, which was awesome! Now she is consistently moving everyday. Mostly in the morning and after I eat. I can tell she is getting bigger by how strong the kicks/punches are, but they don't hurt yet. We have another EKG next week Tuesday so keep us in your thoughts and prayers, I know everything will be fine though.

Furniture has been ordered, paint will be going up with a couple of weeks all in thanks to Tony's Uncle Mike and the baby shower is set for April 17th. My FANTASTIC mom is planning it along with Tony's fantastic mom, they are the best!!!

In other news, about a month ago I called about getting a free 3D/4D ultrasound through GE medical. They offer it to pregnant women between 20-30 weeks for free because they are testing out their new ultrasound machines. Well they got back to me and we are scheduled for the ultrasound on April 13th. I'm really excited, because we really get to see what she looks like.

Reality is starting to set in as the months dwindle down. I really can't believe that she will be here in about two months. Life is really going to change around here. I really excited to meet her and to be off this summer.

I know alot of people have been asking about her name, but we are still not sure yet. We have a few favorites in mind, but I don't think we will be able to decide until we see her. Maybe we will even make the decision after the 3D ultrasound. We'll keep you posted.

I hope everyone is doing well.
