Sophie has a nasty cold that came on the night I passed out, and she's trying her hardest to pass her germs on to me. She has rivers of snot and a racking cough that's been keeping me awake, and now I have a sore throat to go with it. Which is why I forgot toupdate after our appointment with Doctor J on Thursday.
Not that there's much to say, except that bub is growing nicely and he's not overly concerned about Wednesday night, but he will be keeping an eye on my blood pressure. Growth is still spot on, which is really reassuring after what we went through with Sophie. At her 18 week scan she was measuring a week behind, and in the time between that scan and the follow up at 26 weeks she was up to 6 weeks behind. So it's good to see this one growing properly.
we don't see Doctor J for another four weeks, but he's given us our referral for the all important morphology scan at 19 weeks. That's booked for the 23rd of August, which is the same day we go back to Jensen so we'll be able to get the results straight away this time instead of waiting five weeks like we did with Sophie.
I'm slightly nervous about the scan. The two vessel cord with Sophie was terrifying, and I don't know whether I'd be more inclined to ignore it if it came up this time or worry even more because we've already beaten the odds with it once before. Not to mention the kidneys and the cleft palette we'll be looking for as well. Oh well, four weeks and we'll know. And I'll have some beautiful pictures to share!
