we made it to our first goal! when we ended up in the hosptial 3 1/2 weeks ago - the first goal was to get her to the 34 week mark - and we officially made it and miss penelope is doing great. had a big day of dr. appts yesterday. did our growth ultrasound at st. johns where peneloep measured 4lbs and 14 ozs - almost 5 lbs! she's getting so big and the drs are very happy with her growth. other good news is my fluid levels ar eup higher again - 11.5cms which is back in the normal range - a bit lower, but still normal. and my BP looked pretty decent - also good news!
so overall it was an awesome check up. dr said to just keep doingg what we are doing - so more bedrest for me - which just means more growing for her - so we'll take it. we'll still do the st. johns visits 2x a week and see dr. laue on mondays - and we'll just take it week by week. so now the goals are just one week att a time. trying to get to monday and 35 weeks.
was soo good to see you again penelope - you looked fantastic in the ultrasound and just can't believe what a big girl you are! howeve,r you have to keep being active for mom - all this bed rest and worrying is definately starting to wear on me. it's scary to constantly worry that you are okay and always be paying attention for movements... so you need to keep those movements big and often so i can worry just a little bit less. god we can't wait to meet you and it's getting closer and closer.
love you baby girl..
