Follow-up ultrasound

20 weeks and 3 days
You know, this pregnancy has been nothing I was expecting. My first two pregnancies went very smoothly, no issues (except for a few pesky stretch marks)! This pregnancy, if its not one things, its another. The Doctor called and told me she wants a follow-up ultrasound. She wanted a few more pictures of the baby's heart. She assured me it was nothing to worry about. So I called to make the appt., and was told the dont have any open until the 24th. That is the day we move. So she said sorry I dont have any thing open any earlier. So I just thought, Ok I will just see if my new Dr. in KS wants to have another one done as soon as we get there. The lady I had talked to on the phone about getting an appt. called me back a few hours later and said that my dr. wanted me to have it before I leave and to get me in somewhere. So my ultrasound will be on the 8th. Im a little worried, even though she said nothing was wrong. So Im a little on edge right now. Im sure if she thought it we something serious she would have told me what it was. Maybe they just didnt take enough pictures of her heart or something. I dont know, but I do wish it were the 8th already, so we can know if she is fine or not. For anyone out there who prays, Im just asking that you pray for our little girl. That she will be born a healthy, thriving little girl.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. If it helps, they thought Tristan's brain was too big and did a specialist ultrasound -- which I had to wait 2 weeks for -- excruciating -- and his brain was fine. And with Zane they saw a big kidney in his ultrasounds and tracked that the entire pregnancy and then tortured him and us with all of those invasive tests for the 1st 6 months of his life. And he is fine. Sometimes I think ultrasounds and science have gone too far.

I'm sure Paige will be fine, and I hope the time passes quickly for you between now and the 8th.

I'd be the same way Heather, Not knowing for sure would be hard.
I am sure everything will turn out fine, I know at the hospital if they don't see everything on the heart they always want more views. So hopefully that is all it is. Will say extra prayers for you and Paige.
