Week full of appoinments

-I have finally met Dr.Frieden, my obgyn that will be taking over from now until birth. I will be delivering at Medical City in Dallas, this will ensure that the baby and I will be together. =) I will be having a c section so she can be stress free and ready for the surgery to close her back when she is born. I will have to be at the hospital Sept. 14 at 10am and the c-section is at 12pm.

-Natalie has a sonogram about every 3 to 4 weeks with Dr.Peters. Last visit was June 16th, at that time Dr. Peters informed us that her ventricles ( in the brain) were a little abnormal and if they kept growing she would have to get a shunt implanted at birth. Nothing much we could do but accept it and just make sure she has all she needs when she is born. Yesterday, July 13th (30 weeks) we went for another sonogram, she now weights 3lb 7 ounces and her ventricles are perfectly normal and it is a for sure that she will not need the shunt at birth. THANK GOD! This news has been the best news in a long time. Our baby will be home way much sooner than we expected.

- Tomorrow is a day I have been waiting for the longest, our prenatal appointment at Scottish-Rite. =) Hope this can only help me.
