So we had another check up in Edmonton on May 22nd, with our bazillionth ultrasound. Baby is doing great 3 lbs 8oz! Right in the middle of the age/weight charts. The ultrasound tech asked me if my husband is tall because baby's legs are very long! Tall and skinny like his father. For some more specifics: the baby's ventricles (the fluid on the brain) has remained stable since diagnosis. Dr. D was very happy with the minimal changes with the fluid. While there is conflicting evidence to support inutero leg movement being positive, Dr. Aronyk (the neurosurgeon) says it is positive, our baby is still kicking me unceasingly, and unmercifully.
I have to smile with the greatness of God's creation when he's wiggling inside me. What an amazing thing to carry life so precious. After all we've been through I keep telling baby "you kick me all you want, show me your a fighter, and show the world God is great".
So we continue to wait with the utmost peace in our hearts. God has given us a perfect gift, all ten fingers and toes. I'm convinced that his nose is just like Kevin's. Only about 8 weeks and we'll know.
God Bless,
Melody
