well i have had 2 doctors appt (yesterday and today)

yesterdays was just aregular OB appt. plus ultrasound....which i got a video of...had to pay $5 ofcourse...but yeah ikts AWESOME..i didnt get one with Gabs...anywho he weighs 4 lbs 7 oz. which they said is what he should be weighing at 33 weeks (which i will be tomorrow) and i weigh 168 lbs.....lol so he is 4 lbs of that...minus him i weigh....163 and some odd oz...screw the ounces LMAO

Todays was a fetal echocardiogram (an ultrasound for him heart for all you smarties out there...LMAO...hearts) but what they found is instead of the big hole they thought they saw the 1st time its swiss cheese holes in a little bit lower part its called muscular vetricular septal defect...the doctor (who is amazing) said they would heal....HOWEVER.....he also has a narrowing of the aorta the part that comes from the heart and then curves aroud but she said she wasnt sure if that was whats wrong 100% so i am having another echio in 4 weeks and then ofcurse the baby will have an ultra sound done after he is born...he will go to the NICU instead of the regular baby nursery so he can have that done...if he does have the aortic thing (i forget the name,,,,its written down so i can google later) then he will have to have surgery during his 1st week of life....which i am worried about...so yeah we will see what happens...

And to update on Gabs.....she is one now (ofcourser lol) and we have taken her off of bottles except for one right before bed other wise she is on sippy cups only...she drinks cows milk fully now and she completly LOVES it...she gets formula in her nighttime bottle.....and she is walking...not all the time..she will resort to crawling when she wants to get there fast but she is walking more and more everyday!! I love being a MOM!!! ↓

Any ways, sorry that his little aorta might need surgery, hopefully it wont, but we will keep praying for you guys and we are here for you!!

Gabby is getting so big, and i cant believe shes gonna be a big sister soon!!! wow!! ↑

How old is your girl now? I have Ian down to two bottles. His afternoon nap and night time. I can't seem to get him off that nap bottle no matter how hard I try. I have friends who had their kids weaned off the bottle totally at 13 months, which I think is rare, but still makes me second guess myself. Ian is 14 months. ↑
