Since we had the day off together last week, we decided to head up to McDowell Creek Falls for a little hike and to let Kaiser take a little dip. It was so sunny and beautiful...what a great way to spend our day off together.
We are officially 13 weeks pregnant today! Woop woop woop!!!
We saw the specialist at Sacred Heart in Eugene last week and the appointment went very well. They did an ultrasound to measure the fluid on the babies neck along with blood work to test for Down Syndrome and other genetic disorders. During the ultrasound the baby was moving all around, kicking, flipping and flopping which was great to see. After all of the tests came back it looks like the baby has a very small chance of having any genetic disorders...yaaa! I will go back to the specialist on August 3rd for another ultrasound to measure the baby and find out the sex if we want to....hmmm decisions decisions.
Everyone keeps asking me how my tumor is...what's going on with my tumor etc. so I thought I would give you little update.
I haven't been able to be seen by my tumor doctor at OHSU for the past months because I lost my health insurance when I resigned from University of Southern Indiana BUT....now that I'm insured again they were able to schedule me for a full day appointment on July 31st.
They are going to be doing blood tests at 9:00, MRI at 10:30 and then we will meeting with the doctor at 3:00 to go over the results so we will know the status of my tumor on the 31st. As of right now I don't know the effect if any my tumor will have on my pregnancy and visa versa. Some of the tumor side effect have actually gone away but some are getting worse so it will be good to find out exactly what's going on up there.
Cody will be going with me for the first time so he can meet my doctors and be there for support during the long, boring appointment! :) I will keep you posted when we find out more.
