Pregnancy Report: BABY PICS, PART FIVE!!!
You can see four new pics of Baby Boy Kargel by clicking HERE or on the thumbnail below. I formatted things into one large picture, but at a reduced resolution, so the file is only moderately large, about 111K.
You can clearly see Baby's face in picture three! He is now looking like a real baby, complete with chubby cheeks!
This past Friday January 23rd, Bridget and Baby Boy had their third Level II ultrasound exam for the pregnancy. Once again, we travelled down to Atlanta to Northside Hospital. Another thorough ultrasound was performed, and we met and had a another pregnancy discussion with the perinataologist assigned to our case, Dr. Jeff Korotkin.
According to Dr. Korotkin, we are still on target! At 25 weeks, Baby Boy is now estimated to be about 2.5 pounds, so he is on the big side, but as mentioned previously, Dr. Korotkin is not concerned.
The significant news was that Baby Boy is situated in a breech position. Whether or not he turns over before the time of delivery is irrelevant, as he is going to be delivered via Caesarian Section anyway.
In the coming weeks, we will have another visit with Bridget's OB/GYN, Dr. Jordan, Baby's pediatrician-to-be, Dr. Robersteen Howard, and in less than three weeks we are back for another Level II with Dr. Korotkin. Bridget is also soon going to have a blood sugar test to determine if gestational diabetes is going to be a concern this time or not.
Dr. Korotkin's instructions to Bridget to lie down and rest for a couple of hours every afternoon have been a big help, as it gives her enough energy to get through the rest of the day, and (so far) her blood pressure has remained normal. We are now getting into the Third Trimester of the pregnancy, and this was the time that Bridget's blood pressure ended up being an issue while pregnant with Royce.
The leading candidate for Baby names is currently Ryan Charles Kargel...though we are still debating it, this is a name we both like enough that begins with "R". We are also trying to think of a good second middle name. There are other "R" names were are considering, too.
