Okay, we've made it to 32 weeks, which I believe I mentioned before is considered FULL TERM for High Risk Pregnancies. Today was a BIG day in our weekly journey of doctors visits and ultrasounds because today's ultrasound was a GROWTH Ultrasound. The doctors were measuring to see if the baby had grown during the time since the last Growth Ultrasound 3 weeks ago. And I am
PLEASED to announced that
she definitely has GROWN - she is now up to 3 LBS and what was really surprising to the doctors was that she jumped from 14% on the growth chart to 18%
WOWZA! There is fluid in her bladder and stomach; she is swallowing good and even gave us a few hiccups; she was very wiggly today which is great becasue they are looking for lots of activity; they measured her abdomen, legs and head (all good); her heart beat was rapid at 145 bpm ~ all of these things are signs of FETAL WELL BEING!
GROWTH ULTRASOUND
NON-STRESS TEST
All Malaysia would give us today was a little wave - look at those chubby little fingers. She wouldn't allow us to see her beautiful little profile today even after all the shaking of her momma's belly.
I ask for this next picture so that you all could see a picture of one of the many CYST's that are on Shamara's placenta. It is the black bubble outlined in white/gray color that has the word CYST written in the middle of it. There are many many of these on one side of the placenta and this is what the issue is. However, God is allowing Malalysia to get what she needs to continue to grow healthy and we are so THANKFUL!
