Still no name.... but Marco is coming home this week!!!! so hopefully we'll make some progress on that front.
This Monday I was scheduled for a growth/ biometrics ultrasound, but the tech's family was sick so that didn't happen.
Instead, on Monday I had a NST and a quickie ultrasound by the doc just to check my fluids.
My mom was there with me and asked me how much longer I had... I said 4 weeks... the doctor said most likely not.... probably only 3 weeks. If the baby doesn't come early then they'd like to induce. So what was 4 weeks (on Monday) is now 3 weeks, but in reality only 2 more weeks to go...
Then I went back to the doc's on Thursday for the ultrasound.
Baby wasn't moving as much as they wanted him to... so I left (so I could run over to one of the schools and translate for a parent teacher conference) and came back an hour later when he was more awake for another ultrasound.
He's measuring 6 lbs. 3 oz. (give or take 14 oz.)
He is DEFINITELY a HE.
He is a little bit of a contortionist... had one foot kicking me in the ribs while the other was down by his head.
Then I had to go back in on Friday for my weekly NST.
All I can say is... I am so thankful for medical insurance... can you imagine the bills from a week like that... 2 NST's, 3 ultrasounds, & a visit with the doctor.
