Quick Update:

Normal Pregnancy fluid levels should be between 5-25

Tuesday I was at a 4 but that was because the cord was covering a pocket, so they couldn't count that.

Today I was at a 6

Low, but safe.
The baby's kidney issue does effect my fluid level. 

Looks like I'll be delivering in December....

Short term goal:
to make it to 35 weeks, for a healthy, strong, lung developed baby!!!

I ended up having 6 appointments this week--in 3 days...glad this week is over!!!

For the last 3 ultrasounds, the baby had his/her head tucked in, towards his/her tummy, so we didn't get to see the face at all!  Little stinker!

  7. It's my birthday today, Jamie and I think that God gives you whatever you want for your birthday--as long as it's in accordance with His will.
    Anyway, I included you in my rosary. I'm sure you'll make it to 35 weeks.

    Stay positive! :-)

  8. Praying that that baby stays in there as long as possible! On a plus side, look how many times you get to see your sweet baby. :)

  9. What a great Christmas gift you will have. Prayers for the little sweetie to stay in there as long as he/she can and get as strong as possible.
    (By the way,I always loved that Christmas card when you put #5 in a little gift box and had the others surrounding her.)

  10. So that beautiful little blessing could be here in three weeks or less?!?!?!?!?!?! Wow!

    I will be praying for the best for all of you- that baby stays put as long as possible, that the fluid levels stay stable (or rise), and that you are filled with God's peace as you go from worry mode to "doing" mode VERY soon!

    That little one will definitely have some struggles right from the start but will undoubtedly be blessed with the things that matter most- a family who loves him/her unconditionally and will see him/her through the ups and downs of it all!

  16. Oh, my gosh, you are all so wonderful!!

    I feel like a drama queen with always having news about the baby....hope you don't get sick of it!!!

    Beth, my first winter baby, and I am kind of tickled at the thought of it being December instead of January! (not because of the tax deduction)

    Shelly--yes, Christmas time is a wonderful time for a baby, hopefully it will remind us all of the Christ Baby!

    Colleen--the death of your nieces, is just so tragic (my aunt lost twin girls at the same time 24 weeks, about 20 years ago) It really puts my issues into perspective and how blessed we truly are!

    Second Chances--Hoping my baby goes further than St Lucy!! I got a gift from another wonderful blogger, a St Lucy candle head thingy

    Odie, you are the sweetest!

    Therese--Thank you so much, it means so much to me.

    Becky--I already answered you in an email!! But happy birthday you ol' lady!! haha!

    Nicole--yes, that is the good thing about being a high risk pregnancy, getting to see baby so much...the reassurance is wonderful.

    Jill---totally forgot about that Christmas card...that was a fun one!! She's so tiny, she'd probably still fit in that box!! thanks so much!

    Kari-Thank you so very much--I know, I keep telling myself, in 2 months this will all be over....that "doing" mode will be here!

    Monica &
    Ordained Praise--Thank you so very much!!

    Christine--thank you!! I already got your present!!

    Thank you Tina---that is so sweet!
    I trust God and the doctors!

    Thank you Cheerio Mary!! Those rosary prayers are powerful, I feel so humbled for all the prayers and so joyful too. You are so sweet!
