Another Update

Yesterday I had another biophysical ultrasound to see how Jonah is doing. Everything seemed fine except that my amniotic fluid is low. Other than that, his heart rate was good, and breathing motions were fine. We got to see a glimpse of his little nose and lips, and he's got the cutest big lips! We also got to see his manhood, which was a relief because he hasn't cooperated in showing it to us since I was 20 weeks.

This morning I went to the Dr. again. My regular doctor is still out of town, but I liked this one as well. She just reminded me about the fluid being low, and I really need to be drinking a whole lot of fluids, and stressed that I must continue bed rest thruought the weekend. She said the dangers of it could be that the placenta isn't working properly, or the baby could be acting up and maybe rolled onto the umbilical cord. So i'm really going to try and have that not be an issue when I go for my next sonogram on Tuesday. I will be doing MORE bloodwork also, and we're hoping to find out if we can schedule an induction since Dr. Lafranca will be back.

Stay Tuned! Jonah will be here before we know it....
