2 weeks 1 day

I went to my specialist in Springs today. It was a very thorough appointment. Made me feel better, kind of relieved. She weighs 15 oz now and it growing great. She has powerful kidneys and her heart is beautiful. 

On that note…. They did find a small water pocket next to her heart. This scared them and terrifies me! Doc said it could be that the baby is sick or it could be that the baby has a heart defect. They can’t be certain because it just showed up and it is boarder line. They will just have to keep an eye on it.

I am so scarred! I have two weeks one day till my next specialist appointment. From that appointment, they will admit me to St Francis Medical Center. I was so excited to hit my goal of 24 weeks. Now I am just terrified that it is so close. This is my last two weeks out of the hospital, if she makes it that far.  I get my girls back in one week. One week of us altogether before I go into solitude.


The ultrasound tech admitted that this girl of ours is one heck of a fighter and is doing as BEST as she can in this situation. She was amazed and so was the doctor. I believe in her. Come on baby girl, you can do it! I can do it! We can make it!! We have to make it!!!!
