25-7-2008 - How can things change so much in 1 day

My mood while writing this blog: Nervous

---

Thursday July 24, 2008 (25 weeks 4 days)

Well today we had our ultrasound appt to follow up on our little one's growth. She weighed in at 1 lb 11 oz. so that was great to know. She was moving around and sucking her thumb. We watched her move her hands and feet around and it was so amazing to see the details. She is definetly a growing girl. Her head was down so that explains why my bladder always feels like something is pressing on it. She seemed to be doing good (as far as I could tell).

Well we left the ultrasound appt and I get a call about 10-15 minutes later from my doctor. I instantly became worried because doctors dont just call to chat and she has never called me before. She said everything looked great but Sue the ultrasound tech was measuring the left ventricle of Rylee's brain at 1.1cm and the normal range is 1cm or less at this age. So it is 1 mm larger than its supposed to be if the measurements are accurate. The doctor went on to tell me she thinks everything will be fine but she wants me to have a level 2 ultrasound to double check the measurements. So needless to say I have been a nervous wreck. So now I have to wait for her nurse to call me this morning so we can set up a appt with Perinatal care that specializes in this kind of thing. So please pray everything is ok with my baby girl. I'll check back when I know more.

Dont worry sweetie, I know its hard not to, two cases real quick off the top of my head, first me, with my second. They said after the sonogram it looked like she had water on the brain, meaning she would be retarded. after a couple weeks they redid it and every thing was fine, and still is.
MY sister with her first was told Down;s. Not the case. And a friend of my mothers was told Down's as well..
all of us had beautiful, smart and perfect babies> chin up. Worry will get you nowhere! It won't do any good....

I'll be thinking of you...

Kandace, you guys are all in my prayers. I just know that you and the baby will be just fine. The Dr's will tell you the "worst" that could happen to cover their butts. NO WORRIES!!! I know it's hard. Believe me, I know all too well, but your faith is being tested right now. Let go, (i know it's hard to do) and let God do what he does best. Protect you! I'm not a holy roller but I had to trust in my faith and girl lemmie tell you, it really works. Just believe with your whole heart.
Love ya,
M

I'm sure everything will be fine. The doctor's are just being extra cautious for your bundle. I'm sure your worried sick. I'll pray for you.

Oh geez!! I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm sure everything is fine... i really sometimes wonder if they really need to tell us these things that make us so worried! I will definitly be praying for you and i know how you feel cuz i remember when they found the spot on brodys heart.... i was worried to death and its another reason why i'm dreading getting another ultrasound on the 8th! Keep your head up.... let me know when you go to your level 2 apt. and thanks for the comments on Brodys room!
