Dr. Appointment

The Echo cardiogram went fine. Gray's heart is well, all organs are in place, and his diaphragm is in tact. PRAISE GOD!!! His stomach is a little smaller than Dr. Gonzalez felt it should be, so I have an appointment scheduled in 6 weeks (I'll be 28 weeks by then). The Dr. will check my amniotic fluid again. While the level is fine right now, if - in 6 weeks - I have an excess, something could be wrong with the connection from his mouth to his stomach meaning Gray is not eating and swallowing like he should or could be. However, if there is a problem, the nurse assured me it's definitely something fixable and nothing like what we've gone through before. I was so grateful to hear her say those words. When I talked to Travis about it, he said Gray just has the problem Travis once had - a small stomach that fills up easily. HA! Retha went with me to the appointment and quickly pointed out (and made my day by telling the doctor) he takes after me by having a small stomach... :) My tummy feels anything but small right now, but I appreciate her saying it!

Please pray his stomach will continue to grow, my fluids will stay normal and that there is no problems with his "gulps" as the Dr. like to call them.

Thank you so much for all of your prayers and notes of care and concern.
