10 more weeks

I am 29 weeks pregnant today, and my doctor plans to do my c-section about a week early, so only 10 more weeks until we get to meet Brody!
We had an appointment today with Dr. O'Hara. The sonogram showed him weighing about 3 pounds, 4 ounces. One of their concerns with his Atrial Septal Defect was that he might not grow as well as he is supposed to, but he is growing great! His heart is still looking the same as a month ago. The hole is a little bigger than it was last time but only because his heart has grown. The hole is 1.5 centimeters. O'Hara was very encouraging and has not seen anything else that causes concern.
She told us that the pediatric cardiologist would give us more information next week. We will see her on the 28th. The cardiologist is who will determine if we can deliver Brody here or if we have to go to Kansas City. When they do the surgery on his heart, it will be done in Kansas City. We just want to be wherever is best for Brody.
We did get more pictures of Brody today, but I haven't gotten them scanned in yet. Having all the pictures is one nice thing about needing the regular sonograms. :)

Looking forward to hearing what the pediatric cardiologist has to say tomorrow.
