Whew!!!

Well, today I had another appointment at my "high-risk Dr.". Back in November when I was there last, they found a problem with the baby's right kidney. They told me there was a hole in it and it needed to heal up before she was born. Dr. Potter (he's a hoot) told me not to worry too much that it was just a minor thing. Anyone, that knows me, knows that telling me not to worry is a total waste of breath. I am a worrier!!! Big time! But with the holidays and everything, I tried my best to put it in the back of my mind and not let it get to me too much.

So today when I went for another ultra sound....I got great news (and some slightly not so great news).....the hole had disappeared and everything was fine. Thank Goodness! The not so great part was that my blood pressure has been slightly elevated and they want me to be on bedrest for a while. Now it is nothing like before when I was flat on my back for 23 1/2 hours a day...just lay down whenever possible. I can handle that!

10 more weeks!!! Please hurry baby Addison!

(You should have seen the looks I got when I was taking this picture of the Dr.s door, I mean who (in their right mind) takes a picture of a door??? But I thought it would be a great pic for my Project 365 album).

I am glad the hole disappeared. Be prepared to deliver early. Abby was scheduled to be deliver 2 weeks early due to my high blood pressure. But she decided to come 3 weeks instead as my blood pressure sky rocked at the end. Everyone was okay....everything went great. healthy mommy & baby and I wish the same for you.
