Baby update

Here are some pics from our appointment today! The ultrasound pic is a
very close up side profile of Westons cheek and forehead. His arms and
cord were in front of his face again, but at least we can see a cheek
that will soon be kissed all over! What would we do without our I
phones?! We are truly pathetic :) but it does help pass the time. Also
wanted to include the crazy equipment our doc uses to tell us all he
does about our growing boy! It is amazing what we are able to know
inside the womb with this technology. So here is the update... Weston
is measuring too small in his abdomen and femur bones while his skull
and everything else are right on track! So I have been prescribed to
lay flat on my left side for 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the
evening. This is to maximize blood flow to Weston and hopefully
stimulate more growth. We continue to give all these things to the
Lord! I am so looking forward to holding my baby in my arms as these
last few weeks seem to grow longer and longer. He is also still in
breach position and if he doesn't move within the next two weeks the
doc may recommend trying to manually turn him around! But he seems
happy healthy and is very active which the doc was encouraged by.
Praise God! Thank u for your prayers and we know that the Lord has a
perfect plan for us despite our uncertanties. We will keep u posted
and go back next Wednesday to see if his growth has improved. We
praise Him that I have not gone into labor yet and that Weston is out
of the critical danger zone for premature babies!
