Still Week 31

Today we went back to Phoenix Perinatal Associates (PPA) for your 31 week checkup which included both an ultrasound and stress test.  Such good and comforting news...  We saw Dr. Lin today, and she was such a positive spirit.  She told us that everything was still looking very good and that next week they were going to do the Growth Ultrasound again to see how much Malaysia has grown.  She also informed us that if for any reason her growth had fallen beneath the 10% mark then they would probably put you back into the hospital for more constant monitoring.  Dr. Lin also said that as we are fast approaching your 32nd week, they as doctors get super excited because to them in a HIGH RISK Pregnancy (which yours definitely falls under that category), 32 weeks is FULL TERM.

...but that's next week, for today we are excited to report that we have a very active 31 week old baby girl, whose heart rate is going strong at 144 beats per minute...  You were having a few constractions but they weren't to concern about that, but did tell you to just be aware of them and of course if they increased in any consistent pattern that we needed to call in.

GETTING READY FOR THE ULTRASOUND... love that 31 week Belly!





STRESS TEST...

Just look at our little sleeping ANGEL!



Awww, look at that perfect little ear and can you see her little hand sitting on her shoulder... we could actually count her 10 little fingers.

The technician told us that she has lots of hair... I'm not sure that I believe this but in the picture below, can you see what looks like rolls of skin?  We'll that is actually rows of curly hair, IMAGINE THAT!
Pin It!
