Current mood: exhausted
Well I went in today for my 22 week baby check up. They measured my tummy and said she is just where she needs to be. I also got to hear my little ones heart beat again which is always a treat. They also said it was strong and normal.
They did schedule me to come in, in 4 weeks to do some tests. They want to take my blood and test some stuff. Since I have been so extreemly tired they want to make sure I am not enemic and are going to check my Iron levels as well as diabetes. So I will keep you all updated on that.
They did mention the baby's kidney situation again and assured me not to worry. My next ultra sound is April 7th so they will be able to see if it is getting better or not. They didn't mention anything about the endocrine levels which leads me to believe they are not concerned about that to much. I called the genetic counselor yesterday regarding a mess up in scheduling and asked her again about the endocrine levels. She mentioned they are fine and my risk for a having a Downs Syndrome baby are still very slime. The thing that they are checking most is her kidneys at this point.
Well that is about it. Some good news however, is though I have been feeling her kicking since week 16 her kicks are becoming even stronger. For the first time I actually got to feel her kick with my hand on my tummy. That was on the 26th and totally made me happy. Soon other people will be able to touch my tummy and feel her. I can't wait to go back to Red Robbin because she seems to go nuts over Strawberry lemonaid!! I want to feel her after I down a glass!!
Well that is all that is new. Please still keep her in your prayers!
