Update from the doctor
Here's the lastest and greatest as we know it right now! Our 'little' one is not so little any more (at least in my mind). The doctor said that she weighs approximately 6.9lbs now and we still have two more weeks of cookin' (unless she comes early like I keep saying) but that means if she follows the standard of a half a pound each week she will be pushing 8 pounds! That's another reason why I think she will be early, she doesn't want to scare the bejesus out of Momma! Also the doctor had some GREAT news about her kidney situation. It seems our little one is a fighter and her right kidney is now spot on where it should be in size, development and functioning! It was slightly enlarged before but has ceased to keep growing in size...great news. However, her left one is still causing some issues. It is approximately 24mm where it should be no greater than 7mm so we will still have to figure out after she is born what can be done to rectify that, whether it be surgery or medication, we will have to wait and see. So for now we will just continue to let her cook and get nice and plump, that's all they do the last month is get chunkier they don't grow any more in length just fatter! OH NO!!! Dad will be traveling a couple times this week to Pittsburg on Monday, back Tuesday and to Atlanta on Friday back Friday night so he had a conversation with our daughter explaining that she can't come out to play this week and will have to wait until next week if not longer so hopefully she was listening! Good lord I hope she is!!! For those of you counting 19 days 'officially' left and only 12 'unofficial' days by my date prediction! The Marcoot family is getting ready to grow!
