Monique wanted to share the latest on the Giada girl…
Hi all,
I had my first doctor’s appt today since the hospital and it went very well. We got to see Giada on ultrasound once again, and this time, for a little more length. She was quite funny and very active (per usual). Every time the technician went to take a picture Giada would move to mess up the shot, to which the technician said … “I am glad she is going to YOUR house,” ha! Giada is now 5 lbs 2 ounces, with a strong heart and has nothing that calls out any worries about any specific organs or health issues. She also decided to stop worrying her parents and flipped. So she is no longer breech and is where she needs to be.
As for me, I remain on bedrest until 37 weeks when they consider the baby out of the proverbial woods, so to speak. The doctor said that anything after 36/37 weeks and they don’t even stop the labor and there is a good chance the baby would go home with us instead of staying in the NICU. To this end, I must see my doctor every week pretty much until the baby arrives. So I remain working from the home and comfort of my couch.
Big hugs and thanks again to everyone for their love and support through this … my family and friends rock!
