29 Weeks Pregnant!!









Friday night, we celebrated Phil's new Vice President position with other employees of Beaches Rehab. We went to a really nice restaurant at Jacksonville Beach called Roys. See picture: It was Anya (Phil's new partner), Phil & I, Joey (the office manager who has been with Beaches Rehab since it opened 7 years ago) & his girlfriend, and Anya's brother Eugiene & his wife. The dinner was wonderful & drinks & champagne toast went on for many hours. :) Phil's first official day at Beaches Rehab is on September 6, 2010. We are so excited!!
Today was my 29 week ultrasound. The babies are getting so big that it is hard to get good images of them. Most everything looks perfect with them. They both have plenty of amniotic fluid around them & they are growing just like they are supposed to. Nicholas is weighing at 3 Lbs & Victoria is weighing at 2 Lbs 10 ounces. Victoria is laying in the left side of my lower pelvis all curled up, and Nicholas is spread out across my abdomen & lying breech. So, no matter what we would have to have a c-section. He is going to come out mooning the world. :) Anyways, little Victoria is cramped for space & so it seems she is mostly entertained by kicking her brother. This is at least the 4th ultrasound where the doctors have commented on her kicking her brother in the head. In the 3D ultrasound pictures you will see Victoria's face & then you will see Nicholas covering his head to block Victoria's kicks. The last picture is Victoria's foot & Nicholas poor little head getting kicked. :)
As I mentioned, for the most part the babies look perfect, but they have detected one small problem with Victoria. She has a dilated left kidney which means that she may have a kinked kidney vessel (ureter). She is peeing fine though & in most cases this issue resolves at birth. They will do further testing when Victoria is born just to make sure all is well. If she still shows signs of problems, she may need to go home on antibiotics to prevent a kidney infections, and then return in 2 weeks for further testing. Other than that, all seems perfect.
