Prenatal Visit & a Visit to WI
So far so good, as we have had an ultimately uneventful pregnancy so far! The only concern at this point is that I have Rh negative blood, and although I was treated with 3 doses of Rogam in the last pregnancy, there are antibodies showing up in my blood. The concern is that if these antibodies continue to increase, ultimately it would be attacking the baby's blood. However, our awesome doc said not to lose sleep over it. In the unlikelihood that this may become an issue, a blood transfusion can be performed on the baby in utero.
The doctor is wondering if perhaps I became desensitized to the Rogam after receiving so much of it. In either case, they will be keeping a close eye on this situation as we progress. We heard the heartbeat for the second time yesterday, coming in loud and strong at 160 bpm! :)
The kitties are doing well, and growing fast... it seems as tho Nathan has likely reached his adult size or at least close to it. Madaline remains noticeably smaller than him, and we wonder if she might be the runt. They both are extremely affectionate and cuddly, minus the few hours a day they spend in play mode, attacking each other's tails, paws and any other accessible body parts. They are endlessly entertaining and heartwarming.
We will miss our babies this Labor Day weekend, as we head for Wisconsin for a quick 4 day visit home. Because of the pregnancy, this will be our last trip to see my family in 2010, but all are welcome to come visit us for the holidays here in Arizona, and of course, anytime after the baby arrives! Our official due date is March 13th, a slight adjustment from our original due date of March 11th. 3/11/11 sounds cool, but anytime in March is highly desired over another early baby.
Please keep our little Jemma or Aidan in your prayers! We are very excited to redesign our lives once again as parents. :)
