February!

It's the 1st! 1 month till my due date, but, more importantly, 3 weeks till my scheduled c-section! Crazy! I'll be 36 weeks tomorrow.

This pregnancy has been one BIG roller coaster. On Monday we had an appointment with Dr. Laird {aka the heart doctor} and got a really good report. After a long fetal echo, {she was very wiggly...probably shouldn't have had that frap before hand!} Dr. Laird told us that this is the best her heart has ever looked! He said her right ventricle is in the normal range and looks to be healthy, that her VSD {hole} is small and sometimes he has a hard time seeing it, and the leak from the tricuspid valve is still mild. He used the word encouraging a lot and even said that the chances of surgery after birth are small to unlikely. This had to have been the best news we've received since we found out Harper was a girl! Praise God for such great news. We won't see Dr. Laird again until after she is born.

Thanks everyone for all of your prayers and comments. We truly believe that God is in control and ask that you keep praying for Harper. We cannot wait to meet her!
