35.5 Weeks - Perinatologist

We finally have our perinatologist appointment this afternoon, two weeks after our initial growth ultrasound which showed there may be some issues.  I have an "extensive ultrasound" today with the specialist to look at everything - growth, placenta, cord flow, and heart.  The tech and radiologist couldn't tell if baby's heart walls looked thickened on my growth ultrasound, so we need to look at that again too.  I really have no idea what it means for him if they are "thickened" but we will find out many answers today. 

It's been kind of a roller coaster to prepare for this.  We don't know if we are going to a have a baby today or a baby in a month; a healthy baby or a not so healthy baby.  We will get a much better idea today. 

What we do know if that sister and brother already love each other because look at the presents they picked out :)  I [sorta] let Gabi pick out a little blue bear for brother and I brother got her a princess Ariel doll.  I figure doing a little gift exchange when she comes to meet baby might help? 



Here's baby boy at 35.5 weeks.  And I'm excited you can't see my PUPPP rash hardly at all in the picture




And some very happy news today - we bought a new car!  Nick was pretty insistent that we get a bigger car before the baby comes so we rushed out Thursday evening and looked at/test drove the only car we were really considering.  Nick worked out the details the next day and we should be picking up this beauty after the doctor today!
