Another CV Length Ultrasound...

You can see her lungs
Cute little baby...keep growing big & strong
Little blurry...but she's still cute
She's developing so much right now
She's still soooo tiny

Well, we had ANOTHER cervical length ultrasound yesterday, June 22nd @ my workplace. This time Grammie LePla was able to join us to see baby Jordan. It was very nice to have her there with us & such a fun experience for her, too.

This week we measured at 2.7/2.8 :-( Not the best measurement we've had so far, but not bad enough for bed rest. If we fall below 2.5 we are on bed rest for sure...no ifs, ands or buts! My doctor, Dr. Jodi Holbrook, said that we are not as concerned with the length anymore since it has been so up & down. We are, however, concerned with any funneling/opening of the cervix. The ultrasound did not show any signs of funneling so we are to still take it easy. Sit at all times & lie down when able to.

The further along we get with Jordan the better. We are taking all of this very seriously & listening to the doctor. We will continue to get ultrasounds every Monday for the next 3 weeks now. Every day after work I am to do nothing but sit around &/or lay down. Also, my coworkers are now MAKING me sit & not get up unless I have to go to the bathroom. I am very lucky to have such caring doctors & coworkers.

Speaking of caring people...Nate has been AMAZING!!! He's cleaning the house, doing laundry, taking care of Doozer morning & night, making dinners, packing my lunch for work, getting me breakfast & any other odds & ends that I usually don't do he is doing as well. He's even bossing me around...which we all know I am the boss usually. Haha. I'm so proud of him for stepping up & taking care of me & Jordan. He's a wonderful husband & dad (not that I had any doubt).

There are even more pics for you to view this week. Hope you enjoy...we love getting the pics. We can't wait to meet her in 16 weeks :-) Time is going to fly! Our first baby shower is already this Sunday. My girlfriends are throwing me a shower...I'll be posting pics of all the cute outfits Jordan receives. Girls clothes are just too cute.

We will of course keep you up to date with all the news...stay tuned for next Mondays appointment.

Love xoxoxoxo,
The Helgerson's
