Baby A is....

NORMAL and a GIRL!!!!

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!!!  We left for Dr. Turnquest's office (our High Risk OB.) shortly after the call, so no time to post.  We saw our girls heads together...like they were telling each other a secret.  Fluid pocket around Baby A is around 2cm (should be 4cm), low, but better than in the past, draining the bladder helped.  The bladder is still bigger than her head, but not near as big as it was!!  It will continue to get bigger though with no intervention.

We are ecstatic!!!!! Our little girl is normal and now we have a "chance" to save her.  It's a big, scary decision and DH and I are going to go through it tonight, but I do think we're headed to Tampa.  Something is compelling me to go...I think we have a lot of angels around us..the Lord KNOWS we need them right now!!

Our Baby Girls names are Addison Maria (Baby B.) and Reagan Dawn (Baby A).  Their hearts were beating normally in the 140s.  They have completely stolen our hearts.  We still need lots of prayers..the next few weeks are going to be crucial.  They can stent, but they will only stent once and if the baby pulls the stent out, it gets clogged, or dislodged, they will not re-stent.  Stents typically last anywhere from 1 day to 4 weeks.  But, even 2-4 weeks would give her little lungs a chance to grow.  It's all still very risky, but at least there is HOPE!!!!!  We have to hope and pray her kidneys STAY functioning and her lungs are mature enough to survive!!! 

We've met some amazing people the last 2 weeks...all of whom are a piece of our hearts.  Thank you again..and I will continue to update!
