33 Week Check Up

Today we went to the doctor for our 33 week check up. Only about 7 weeks left. I can't believe time has gone so fast. Cooper weighed 4lbs. 5oz. We had to get another sonogram done to check on his kidneys. His left kidney is retaining a little bit of fluid. The doctor said he sees this a lot in little boys and said he has never seen anything come out of it. We will have another sonogram in 3 weeks just to keep a watch on it. After he is born the Pediatrician will do a sonogram on Cooper so they can get a better look. Please pray that his kidneys continue to grow and function properly. Even though the doctor says don't worry it still bothers me a little. I guess it is the mother coming out in me. I know I just have to trust in God and put everything in his hands. During the sonogram Cooper yawned 2 times. It was so cute!

This has been an amazing experience. I remember dreaming as a little girl of getting married and being pregnant. We even used to stuff our stomachs so we looked pregnant when we were little. Now that dream has come true. I can't believe how much my life has changed in the last 2 years. I have a wonderful husband who has been so supportive and right there by my side through this whole experience and now we are approaching the upcoming birth of our little boy. God has blessed us in so many ways.

I will be praying for ya'll for sure. After what my brother and sister-in-law have been through with Mason, I would not wish that on anyone. I'm sure everything will turn out just fine.
