Baby Sophia Update

Went again today and had a level 2 fancy ultrasound and baby Sophia's anemia levels were lower today than Friday so that is good news!!! Her blood is healthier today than Friday! She looked great and then we waited and waited to see the specialist....the perintologist and she talked to us for a very long long time. Basically she wanted to do a bunch of non-sense tests that wouldn't result in anything for this pregnancy. She had both of us go get our blood drawn today and so by the time we were done it was an all day event with a ton of waiting in waiting rooms!!! She wanted Will's blood to confirm that he is a carrier of Big E since the baby is and to see if he has two Big E's or one big and one little e which will determine the risk for anything in the future. She wanted to test my blood to see if my antibodies had increased and we will have the results on Friday. If my antibody levels have increased then they will have me come back in for another ultrasound right away if they are the same or less it will be in 2 weeks. So in other words and to sum it up she might come early but she might just stay right where she is at and if my levels and her levels stay good she could be a full term baby which would be the absolute best thing!!! Thank you Heavenly Father!!!

Leslie,

So glad you guys liked the banana bar recipe and frosting. Both recipe's were submitted by Ceely in the ward cookbook so I have to give credit to her but I agree they are super yummy!!! Let me know when I can come help get baby stuff ready and drop off a pan of banana bars for your family. (:
