Good news-I think?

First off...30 weeks today. YIPPIE!!! And I got my girl scout cookies to celebrate :P  

Thursdays are now my jammed packed, busy day. Today I had another NST, appointment with the NP since my doc is out of the office this week then an ultrasound. Everything went good, at least I think (hence the title).

Ultrasounds shows that my fluid is still around 10 which is good, its stable. My last growth scan was 3 weeks ago and estimated that Molly was about 1 lb 12 oz. Today they estimated 2 lbs 9oz. While that looks and sounds like great growth, apparently the two difference machines at the different offices (MFM/my doctor's office) shows a problem. 

The scan 3 weeks ago was done by MFM; their machine somehow put Molly at an overall 40th percentile, even though her head and abdomen are under the 10th percentile. At my doctor, the ultrasounds shows that she is way below the 40th percentile. So it looks as if she is falling behind even though she has had significant growth in the past 3 weeks. All of this is confusing and from what they said is basically just a difference in the way the computer generates the percentiles. Plus my doctor told me from the beginning that MFM always measure higher/bigger than the machines at my doctor's office for some reason.

(I would also just like to add as a mini vent that since my doctor is out of town, I feel like I am not getting told as much. My doc is very good about pulling out the ultrasound report, sitting down beside me and explaining everything about it. Today I was just told "she's looking good. She's small, but we've known that-that isn't any new news." I like having the details! Tell me what's still small-just her head or abdomen? Or now overall she's looking small?)

So my doctor's partner that was covering for her today suggested to the NP that we repeat the scans on Monday to make sure everything really does look okay. Sounds good to me. My doctor is back in on Tuesday and I'll get the full story Thursday from her. Until then please keep praying that Molly grows nice and big and stays inside for another 5-7 weeks at the least. 

Last but not least, my first shower is the Saturday and I'm super excited to see all of my friends and family that I haven't seen in awhile! Hoping the weather is as good as it says it will be! 

Nap time! :)
