I just have to take a minute to give God the glory for an amazingly healthy pregnancy. I've got just five days left, so I think its safe to say we have successfully dodged the bullet on this one. Not even a hint of preeclampsia has arisen at any point in the pregnancy, and Daniel is anything but growth restricted--at last measurement he was a week ahead of schedule and a whopping 6 pounds 4 ounces. Doppler studies show perfect blood flow in all his cord vessels and no aging of the placenta whatsoever. Way to go God-- you rock! (I encourage anyone reading this who has personal experience with preeclampsia and/or IUGR (small babies) with or without a definitive diagnosis of a blood clotting disorder, to investigate the drug Lovenox, and talk with your perinatologist about it. I truly believe it is the miracle drug that saved my pregnancy.)
Meanwhile the boys room is finally complete and we are just waiting on Daniel now. As for Seth, his focus has shifted from cowboys to spaceships, planets, astronauts, dinosaurs and Elvis music (yes, really). He rarely stops talking or singing, except briefly to eat and sleep, and sometimes not even then. We have no doubt Daniel will learn much under his tutorship!
