Havyn Update



I better get this ultrasound picture up so that my mom and Grandma can see it. So I'll give everyone an update on why I even have a new ultrasound picture. A couple weeks ago I headed to the doctor to discover that I had lost 3 pounds, making my total weight can this pregnancy 3 pounds, and I was measuring small. The doctor was concerned and sent me to ultrasound. During the ultrasound they checked for growth and found that Havyn is measuring normal size, but that I have pretty low levels of amniotic fluid, making me measure small. The doctor decided to see me again in a week and repeat the ultrasound. We did that and nothing, not even my weight changed. He said that as long as my fluid levels stay above 5cm, which mine are 6 cm, I should be ok. If they don't I'm not sure what will happen, but from what I've read it's not good, and they may have to take the baby early. As for now, I go in on Tuesday for yet another ultrasound to see where I am. I'm not too concerned that things will change for the worse, and the baby will mostly be born on the scheduled day, Feb. 11, I will go in for my c-section.
