2 Doctor Visits this week

Monday I went to see my regular OB. She said everthing looks great and wants to see me back in 3 weeks. Then I will be seeing her weekly until 27 weeks.

Thursday I went to see the high risk doc. Ultrasound revealed my cervix is still holding strong...no change (yea!). He wants to see my back in 2 weeks. Also I will be having the targeted ultrasound in 4 weeks. This should determine my actual due date and if the baby is in fact a girl. Right now the high risk has me as 17.2 wks and my regular ob has me as 18.4 wks. Interesting I know!

On a lighter note I have been feeling little flutters here and there since about 15 weeks. Sooo sweet!

Went the High Risk Doc last week

Last Thursday I went to see the high risk specialist. He said my cervix is 7cm and is 2-3cm from the stitch. He said the cervix could possibly weaken and funnel down to the stitch. If the cervix shows signs of weakness over the next few weeks he said they may have to go in and put another stitch up higher. Just praying that it doesn't come to that! It also appears to be another girl at the moment (it's still a little early). After the initial shock and tears I have accepted the fact that God has his reasons. It may be that we are already prepared for a little girl or that girls do better in NICU...only he knows. Now for the hard part....coming up with a name!!

15 Weeks Today

After this week I will be going for bi-weekly check ups with high risk OB and will also be followed by my regular OB. Whatever it takes to keep this baby baking!

We had a wonderful July 4th weekend. We spent some time with my parents on Saturday then went to Florence and spent time with Michael's family Sunday and Monday. I was afraid we weren't going to be able to travel to Florence, because Tessa had her first ear infection since getting tubes. I must say ear infections are not as bad with tubes. Three days worth of drops and the ear infection was gone. Whoo hoo!
