Appointment

We went to Yale New Haven Hospital this morning for an ultrasound with their specialist. Baby looks good and is getting BIG :) !!! The ventricles were measuring at just under 17mm which is a larger reading then our last few we had done in England.

We basically needed to start from scratch with these doctors - which is unfortunate cause Kevin & I had found our happy ground but now find all the worries and concerns we once had are resurfacing. blah. I was offered an Amniocentesis again which we declined the first time around because of the small risk of a miscarriage. But now that I'm 32 weeks pregnant the risk of miscarriage is now a small risk for pre-term labor so we went ahead and had the procedure done. The results, which will be back in 2 weeks, will let us know if there is any chromosomal problems.

They want us to transfer the rest of our prenatal care and the birth of our baby to Yale New Haven instead of continuing with our care with our doctors here in New London. Not sure what we're going to do yet.

Appointment in New London tomorrow and another appointment at Yale in 2 weeks.

Ready for baby to be here....

  1. We are also ready to meet the newest member of our ever growing family---but not before HE is ready! It is wonderful that you have so many great doctors looking after you in your pregnancy. You and Kevin will make the right decisions for your family. Trust in yourselves.

  2. I am keeping you and a happy, healthy Logan in my prayers:) Logan is so lucky to have such an intelligent (and gorgeous) mommy and daddy to make the right decisions for him. Little boys are so much fun (and have such a special bond with their mommy)(From Tara..Andrea's friend)
