We went to see Dr. Battise, the fetal cardiologist today and she did a fetal echo on the baby's heart. As they were doing the echo, the Dr. and the tech thought they saw a hole but when they went over it and looked at it from several directions they decided that maybe it was just a false reading. She also said that the chambers looked equal in size which is a good sign because if there is an issue one side of the four chambers would be larger than the opposite side. Before we left the Dr. said that we should plan for a echo after the baby is born to check the heart while he is in the NICU to make sure that the heart is working well.
Our take on all this is that it is good news and that we are just continuing to pray that God will watch over our little man and keep him growing. We go to see Dr. O'Hara on the 29th because Dr. Farb had to cancel the appointment that was scheduled tomorrow.
Things seem to be going well because he is moving all around and I am hungry all the time!! The other night I just laid there and just watched my belly dance, he was moving all around. I told Lanny he must be a dancer because he was moving so much. He then asked me "what music was he listening to" and I said "the music in his head". Lanny just rolled his eyes and said "yeah, he got that from you!" I just laughed, because it's true!!
We do want to thank all of you for your support during this trying time in our lives. It is very uplifting and lets us know that we are truly lucky to have friends and family care so much about us and our son!!! We love you guys!
