Here in My Heart: Good thoracentesis results
http://thirtyminutesofmywonderful.blogspot.com/2014/05/good-thoracentesis-results.html
Monday, May 12, 2014. We are getting a fetal echocardiogram (imaging of the baby's heart by a pediatric cardiologist) to completely rule out heart abnormalities on Wednesday as well as a follow up ultrasound to see if the fluid is re-accumulating, decreasing, or staying the same. While the doctor was doing the procedure he also pulled off some amniotic fluid to do chromosome and viral testing on so we should have those preliminary results as well. 2) No heart or chromosome abnormalities are detected.

Here in My Heart: September 2014

Saturday, September 27, 2014. At the end - DUE DATE! We have decided to give him through the weekend to try to come on his own and give my body time to get better prepared for delivery. The emotions have been piquing again for me this week. I'm scared what happens once he is delivered. He seems OK on ultrasound, but will the lung that was collapsed for a period be well developed? What will the scars from having two shunts shoved into his chest look like? 3 Jonah takes on his role as big brother with ease.

Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Waiting - 31 weeks. Sorry it has been so long since my last update. Since the fluid has resolved, we have had weekly appointments with not many updates, the fluid has stayed away. As my doctor says, I'm getting to be one of his boring patients. Thank heavens! Cindy just spent a week with us as Ryan was gone on business to help around the house and help with Jonah. It was so nice to have her company around and have home cooked meals everyday! This week Jonah is spending time with m...

Here in My Heart: Hopeful - 25 weeks
http://thirtyminutesofmywonderful.blogspot.com/2014/06/hopeful-25-weeks.html
Sunday, June 22, 2014. Hopeful - 25 weeks. We cannot thank everyone enough for all the prayers, love and support. We are sad we have not seen many of you in so long. Originally, the plan was to go up north this summer to spend time with everyone but in our current state, traveling that far is just not the best idea. We are doing our best to enjoy the summer here in Kansas City (albeit much hotter than up north)! 1) Caleb continues to thrive and the fluid stays away! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Here in My Heart: Disappointed
http://thirtyminutesofmywonderful.blogspot.com/2014/06/disappointed.html
Thursday, June 5, 2014. Jonah has kept us sane. I love that little boy so incredibly much. He knows Mommy has "Baby Caleb" in her tummy and to be gentle with Mommy. He has even started to sing "Jesus Loves Me" to my tummy, it's so moving how aware he is. We are planning to bring him to the Thomas the train exhibit this weekend. Thank you all again for your support. Another picture of Caleb, this was right after he took his foot out of his mouth. What are we going to do with this wild man?

Here in My Heart: Rollercoaster
http://thirtyminutesofmywonderful.blogspot.com/2014/06/rollercoaster.html
Sunday, June 15, 2014. It has been roughly five weeks since we discovered this thing with Caleb, and the whole thing has felt like a giant rollercoaster, a rollercoaster of emotions and events. We went in Wednesday morning again preparing to have the shunt put in again. They always bring me for an ultrasound prior to see if baby is positioned correctly. Honestly we couldn't believe what we saw. The fluid had dramatically improved! We miss you all very much. 2) Caleb continues to grow strong and healthy.

Here in My Heart: Shunt placement
http://thirtyminutesofmywonderful.blogspot.com/2014/05/shunt-placement.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Thank you everyone for all the well wishes, texts, messages, prayers, and phone calls letting us know you are pulling for our little man. I also want to give a big shout out to my little sister Peyton who is graduating from high school this weekend. We are devastated we cannot make it there to celebrate all your amazing accomplishments with you. We are so very proud of you and love you to pieces. Congratulations, my sweet Peyton. 1) The shunt works and Caleb keeps growing strong.
