Now we play the waiting game

I had a fabulous time at my appointment today! I got a few new pictures of Andersen that are not the greatest because he is so squished, but they will do until next time (Sept 8th!). His heart rate is still in the 150s (153 to be exact!) and definitely makes his presence known by squirming about. He tends to favor my right rib cage and kicks it with all of his might to say hello. I went to radiology a few weeks ago for a follow up "big screen" ultrasound to check Andersen's kidneys. At 20 weeks, his left kidney was measuring ever so slightly larger than normal and a follow up at 32 weeks is standard. I am glad to say that his kidney is within the normal range, no longer a cause for concern, and looking good. Phew! Andersen has been head down for several months and will remain so until delivery.  Everything is still going well, now we play the waiting game. Here is the latest video from today's appointment. Between 24 and 30 seconds you can see details of his face, if you look closely. Does anyone else see a BIG forehead, small nose, chubby cheeks, and pointy chin? Enjoy!

[Just in case anyone was wondering, my next 4 appointments are scheduled and they are NOT weeks from now :) I set them straight today! I will return on the 8th, 13th, 22nd, and just in case... the 27th.]
