Grace May be Delivered Tomorrow

The doctor was in this morning for an ultrasound and things are looking good. Grace is at 5 and a half pounds and her lung development seems good. Her movement is a little below normal but that is most likely a small side effect of the Lovanox that Jenn is on. After considering the entire situation the doctor decided to do an amnio (checking the amniotic fluid) and visually it looks like Grace's lungs are developed enough for her to be delivered.

We are waiting for the lab results to confirm what he has seen visually. If everything comes back fine (which he assumes it will) we will be delivering Grace tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM (Pacific Time which is noon on the East Coast and 11:00 AM in the Midwest). I will keep you informed as to what is happening moment by moment and I will have my digital camera and a video camera. I will post pictures once she is here. Sorry for being a slacker so far about that for those of you who have commented about that (you know who you are).

Look here for the latest information as it becomes available.
