Cautious.....

I have been meaning to blog for a while now........sorry for the delay! We had our 28 week appointment and sonogram this past Monday. We walked away with some good news and news that makes us a bit cautious. Let's start with the good news...........

My placenta has moved up and is in a good spot!
He looks healthy and is certainly growing.
My weight was good, as was my blood pressure.

The news that made us cautious......

He is measuring big! His head and abdomen are measuring 32 weeks and his femur is measuring 30 weeks. The OB didn't see any extra fluid, masses or tumors that would explain his size. So, to be safe she is sending us to a Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialist for a level 2 sono. We have this appointment on Monday, Oct 4th at 1:45pm. She said it could be a couple of things. Genetics play a factor in it, so he could just be big because of our genetics. Our family does have a history of bigger babies. I could have gestational diabetes, but my 1 hour glucose test came out normal. She doesn't think there is much else going on..........all his organs and his brain look healthy and well developed. Worst case scenario.......he continues to grow like a weed and we are induced early, or if he is too big we may have a c-section.

So, we are anxiously awaiting the level 2 sono........for peace of mind. Please keep us in your prayers. I will keep you all posted.
