End of March Update

Today Susanna and I headed to Sioux Falls for many appointments. She had a video swallow test at 9:30am which she did really good at. Then we had to see the doctor about that and he signed off on her so we do not have to see him again or have another swallow test done. Then we saw her lung doctor. He thought she was still doing good and will keep her on the same meds she is on, Flovent. All this was in the NEW Sanford Children's Hospital or the "Castle". Susanna thought it was pretty cool. Then in the afternoon after a quick lunch she had her 5 year check up and shots for kindergarten in the fall. She did very well on the tests and the doctor was quite impressed since she was such a small preemie. She did get four shots and did not like them at all.

Then it was my turn. I had an OB appointment with Dr. Boyle. I have been having a lot of pain and severe discomfort in my lower abdomen. They checked and I am 2cm dilated and 60% effaced. Her head is also way down by the cervix. My next appt is a week from Wednesday, we shall see where I am at then.

Now we are all just waiting for the blizzard to come tonight. YEAH!!! NOT!!!

Rides

I know this is an old topic but the pictures and video are too good not to share anyway. Last year I took Susanna to the state fair and she got to ride the rides for the first time. Another daycare child met us there so they would each have someone to ride with. Susanna and Taylor had so much fun. I think we rode for about 2 hours. Susanna was beat, she fell asleep before we made it to the van, thank goodness for the stroller. WARNING: Lots of Pictures!!!

32 Weeks

Well today I am 32 weeks along. I had a doctor's appointment last Wednesday. Everything looked good. I am now done with the ultrasounds. I just go back for my OB checkups. Larry got to feel her kick for the first time the other night. That's all for now.
