NST, Ultrasound, NST

We had an NST and ultrasound last Thursday, at 32 weeks. It went well. The doctor said that the flow from the umbilical cord is looking ok, still concerning, but ok. Anabelle was measuring on average between 28 and 31 weeks, just depending on what they measured. Anabelle's thigh bone was about 28 weeks, head was about 30-31 weeks. For now that's about all they can measure accurately. They said that she is about 2.8 lbs now! So in the past month she's gained almost a whole pound! I just hope they are close to her actual weight, because if they are, and she keeps it going, then she will be just over 3 lbs when she is born. It's small, but there have been smaller babies with success stories :) My mom was able to go to this ultrasound, which was really nice, especially since Kyle wasn't able to go. 

I had a NST on Thursday as well as today. Both went well! I have to get my titers done soon, (blood work), but that hasn't really been a concern this pregnancy. I have another ultrasound next Thursday, which will be at 34 weeks. 

Just recently some people with Arthrogryposis have reached out to us, giving us support. I can't explain how wonderful this has been. It's been rough since we haven't really been able to talk to anyone who has been in our shoes. It's so nice having people willing to open their hearts to us. 

Sunday we all went to church and meet all the wonderful people at First Christian Church. They are very sweet and loving people, and I am so glad they have welcomed our family. This is defiantly a place I know we are always welcomed and will go again and again. 

Since I only have one more NST this week, I will most likely update again on Monday after my NST/OB appointment. Thank you again for reading, supporting, praying, and just being their for our family! 

With love, 
The Polks
