Good News!

Good news!! Today we meet with the cardiologist, and he said that he doesn't see anything wrong with Anabelle's heart!! So glad to finally get some solid good news! Also, her heart is about the same size as his finger tip.. Amazingly small. 


We also toured the NICU at UCD. It was very informative and nice to see how things are ran. The doctor told us the same information we already know,  but it was just nice seeing where we'll be for a while. Depending on what happens when she is born, she will probably be in there for a little over a month, but possibly more. We learned about visiting and hours and how that whole system works. It will be hard because she will be born around cold season, so they said they probably won't allow Amelia and Allison in the NICU by her bed side for a few weeks... Which I know will be difficult for them to understand and accept. They already want to hold her! Allison actually just asked me a day ago if she could hold baby Anabelle : ) But we feel a little more comfortable now knowing what to expect as far as the NICU process goes. It's nice to be able to visualize everything. 


Only about 15 more weeks to go! Maybe earlier depending on if they want to deliver her at 37 week. So if they let her go to 40 weeks, she will be here in a little less then four months.. crazy to think! 


With love,
