Testing day

Tuesday started early, I had to be at Children's Hospital at 6:30 am. Myself, my wonderful husband, and sweet momma got there and got me all signed in. I didn't have to wait to long until they called me back, however I was hungry and that is never a nice thing to do to a pregnant woman. Anywho, we got back to the little prep room and I signed my name for what seemed like a few hundred more times and they took me back to the MRI room. I did get to watch a movie which I appreciated because man was that machine LOUD!! I was in there for total of an hour, which all things considered isn't so bad.I don't think Emma liked it so much though because at certain points I could feel her squirming around.

After the MRI, we went to the hospital where we will be delivering at for an ultrasound. We were all pretty excited at the opportunity to see our little girl again. She was stubborn though and wasn't in the best position for the ultrasound tech to see her lesion so she could get some measurements of it. So I stood up, walked around, drank some water, did some stretching, and a lot of finger crossing that Emma would co-operate. The tech came back in to check and see if she moved, and of course (just like her daddy) she didn't budge. I think we have a strong willed little girl on our hands... UH OH... But the tech got what she could and then we waited for the doctor. He finally got there (he's a busy man) and took his own look at sweet Emma. So we got to see her again (which of course we didn't complain).

Once we were done with the ultrasound we were off back to Children's. We went to the Fetal Care Center and met with the social worker Erin, and the nurse practitioner Avery. Both gals were sweet and compassionate, they gave us as much information as they could, and then sent us on our way. We went to the fetal echo and the cardiologist came back and said our sweet girls heart looked great! AMEN.

Overall this was a good day, it was a long day for sure but a good one!!

At the end of the day this is what matters...
