Bye bye Grandma!

Grandma had to get up really early this morning to leave on a business trip. She did wake up early enough to hold the little miss before her morning feeding. I think this trip is going to be harder on grandma than Izzy, but I do know that Izzy will miss her grandma too! It's a good think she'll be home sunday evening!

Izzy and big cousin Hannah Izzy and big cousin Kelsey Can'tyou see she's thrilled with this picture! And this is what we do!!!

Today was kindof a crazy day! First of all, last night was our first rough night. Izzy decided to stay awake most of the night and we were having problems eating because my milk came in and I was so engorged she couldn't latch on!! We were pretty tired when we got up but we had to get mommy a pump to get this extra milk out so she could eat. After we got home and I got some milk pumped out, Yvonne and Candice came by with David to meet Izzy, then shortly after Annie and Brooke stopped by to check in on her. Then, Cari and Jay came over to wait for Hannah to get back from the show with grandma Chris. This was a little too much activity for one day I think because she started getting really fussy! Sorry to everyone that stopped by to see her, it was not a good day!! :-(

First Doctor's Visit

Izzy had to go see the doctor for the first time today. They wanted her to come in to be checked for Jaundice and check her weight just to make sure everything is going well. And, I'm happy to report, Izzy passed with flying colors again!! Her jaundice levels have already dropped from her last day in the hospital AND she is back up to her birth weight (which they don't usually expect until the two week appointment). All good news today! He next appointment is on her 2 week birthday! :-) Hopefully things will keep going this well!

Doctor

I had my 38 week appointment today. Good and Bad news. I'm 75% effaced, but only dialated to a 1. That's all the news. Nothing much else has been going on besides some occasional contractions an overall feeling icky, tired, achy, or sick!!! Let's all hope she get's out before Thanksgiving!!!!!!

Sonogram

Her hand A side profile Here are the latest sonogram pictures!! :-)

So my last appointment was on Halloween. At the sonogram we learned she's for sure a girl!!! (The video most deffinatley proves it!) If you haven't seen the video of the sonogram, come on over and check it out!!!! :-) They said she is approximatley 5 pounds 8 ounces. Her heart rate was 124, my fundus measured in at 34 (So it's finally growing again!!) Other than her weight they said she did measure slightly small, but all of her organs look good and her weight is good. I'm (obviously) not a big person, so I'm not going to have a gargantuan baby! I may have a nonstress test next week just to make sure everything is going okay (because she is so small), and they may check me for the first time next week... we shall see on Thursday! :-)
