Colors!

I have finally decided on a color scheme for baby girl's room -

Pink, Gray and Green. I think it should be pretty darling! I'm excited to pick out the paint, figure out a design for the walls and get started. Poor Bryan - he has a lot of work ahead of him. ;) Thank goodness he is so incredibly awesome and carries out the 'honey-do' list without a complaint to be found. Have I mentioned I love him?

I had my 30 week appointment today for baby girl. Her last ultrasound looked like all was well, but it turns out her growth is a bit concerning. She looks to be at least a week behind compared to the ratio of growth she had at the last ultrasound - not a huge issue on its own, but if her growth continues to slow down or never catches up it will compound on itself. She is just not where they want her to be. I have an appointment with a perinatologist on Feb 26th for a special follow up ultrasound and consultation. There is a chance that my genetics just make for small babies, but with the two-vessel cord situation the growth is something to be concerned about. Not going to lie - I'm pretty stressed. While being reassured at every corner by our doctors and the percentages of healthy babies with 2-vessel cords I was sure we would finish out this pregnancy without any bumps. Already having regular ultrasounds every 4-6 weeks keeps the possible issues on my mind, and now being referred to a specialist because there is bit of a red flag is just so fun. In the realm of everything that could happen we are extremely lucky. That doesn't erase the stress and worry from us mamma's though, does it? With Ellinor's situation at her birth we are on extra high alert already. Prayers all is well and baby girl has caught up by this next ultrasound!

We are currently transitioning Ellinor from crib to big girl bed - post coming soon!
