Baby Girl Is Small

Well well well here we go again. Unfortuntely this time we are hearing about this sooner than Devin. Which at the same time is good so that we can try to slow the process of growth restriction, if that is what's happening. So the story is we went to the hospital for an ultrasound, and were told that she is small. Basically they judge everything off of percentages, and she is in the 16th percentile. Babies that are considered growth restricted are in the 10th percentile. So at this point doctors are not calling it that yet, but she is right on the borderline. We go back Dec. 30th for another ultrasound, I will be 25 weeks then. They will have a much better idea if her growth pattern is continuing in the wrong direction. For now I have been put on modified bed rest, which I have to say is not fun at all. It drives me nuts to not be able to get up and do my simple cleaning etc.... I just thought I would give you all some insight as to why I have been behind on blogging lately. I have been preoccupied with devin ofcourse, and now baby girl being a little sassy in my belly :) We hope the best and just want to get her safely, even if she is small and early again. I mainly just want her healthy and home sooner rather than later. Well I will have more posts of a little more fun stuff. I'm working on it this weekend, until then talk to you all soon.
