So, the u/s today went good. She has yet again turned, head down, but was slowly making her way back into a transverse position during the u/s. I saw yet a different perinatologist today, but he was very nice & informative. Dani is doing well even though the blood flow (velocity) is increasing some. ~ meaning that the anemia is developing some. It is now borderline but still safe. She is 3lbs 4oz & just looks so very cute! It almost looked like she was sucking on her toes! Can you imagine being so limber?!?
Then I went to the OB. I can never say enough....I love my OB!!!!! He just makes me feel so comfortable about everything. He told me that we are totally within a safe range if we deliver her now....he is thrilled with her growth....kind of laughed at how she must not be missing any meals but wonders why I am losing weight. She must be sucking it all away from me we decided!!!! I asked him who I will see if I don't deliver before July 10th (he is leaving that day to get married in France) & he said there are 2 OBs that are covering for him but is not worried....he said he has earned the right over the last 2 yrs, with the IF, and the 3 m/cs & subsequent D&Cs to deliver this baby! I agree 100% & don't want anyone else doing it!!!! I had to basically separate Rich & Dr. Chan....they were like old friends....causing trouble....they were both sarcastic & joking....a couple of trouble makers I tell ya : ) I go back again next Thursday.
My step-dad's test did not go well. They are not sure what is going on. I guess his heart rate & blood pressure dropped during the test so they stopped it. My mom is taking him back again tomorrow to try a different study. He has had 2 heart attacks in the past & multiple angioplasties with stent placements. Since he lost his job (company closed last week) his insurance is only good thru Tuesday....nothing like cutting it close! He had a job interview last Fri....he should hear about it soon. We are keeping our fingers crossed.
We had to take our pup back to the vet today. Because of all of his allergies he started chewing on his hip & created a bald spot that started oozing today. He is now on antibiotics, prednisone, and a topical ointment....and back in the darn cone of shame!!!! He is pouting now....it makes me so sad to see him so pathetic....hopefully we can get to a point where he can go several weeks without going to the vet....he is so much like me it is really annoying & expensive!!!!

Oh my goodness! You are getting so close! Dani sounds like she's going to be fun. I love your OB too. He sounds like he's got it together! I hope that your Dad is going to recover quickly, hopefully this is just a small bump in the road for him. My prayers go out to you all!

I am so pleased that Dani is doing so well. Don't worry too much about you loosing weight as long as Dani is growing!!! Besides that's less weight for you to loose after she is born. Plus when you breastfeed, it tends to make you hang on to weight. So don't fret too much over the weight thing, just keep eating. Don't hold back if you want a treat or two, especially if you have had all your nutrients for the day and want something special!
Have you considered that your dog is having a food allergy. My female poodle (who disappeared this Spring) had food allergies. Once we eliminated the food that was the culprit, all the chewing and hair loss stopped. Hugs, Fern
