Baby Update

Ok, it has been a busy couple of days for us here! I finally got to see a doctor on Tuesday, although he wasn't my regular doctor. I had protein in my urine again, but this time I had the elevated blood pressure to go with it (140/88). I did the nst again and both babies looked good, but Spencer didn't have quite the reactions that they wanted to see. The doctor decided to send me over to the hospital to labor and delivery for more monitoring. So, off I went! By the time I got all hooked up to the monitors, Spencer was more than willing to give them what they were looking for and had all his accelerations right away, so both babies looked great now...the nurse took my blood pressure and it dropped to 126/82, so I was looking good. They did a blood draw and started me on a 24 hour urine collection. The blood work came back good, so I don't have pre-eclampsia. After three long hours of laying there, they finally let me go home! Today we went for a growth scan to check on their growth. Aubrey looked really good, she was measuring right on target. She is approximately 5 lbs 3 oz. The tech did say she had a big head...not something I really needed to hear, but I will get over my fear one way or another! Spencer measured a little smaller, which is normal for how things have been going. They did say that the side to side measurement was small and that was bringing down his overall measurement. The radiologist that was there said that he thought that it was because of the position that Spencer was in and it was too hard to get a good measurement. He is approximately 4lbs 13oz. So, all together I have 10 lbs of baby in me!! No wonder I find it hard to move sometimes! Long story short, we all look good and so far it is just a wait and see situation! I do have another nst scheduled at the hospital for Friday and then another doctor appointment on Monday. I finally get to see my regular doctor on Monday, who I haven't seen since the gestational diabetes diagnosis, so we have a lot to talk about! I will post as I get information!! Happy New Year to everyone!!!
