Good Day at UCSF--Got to meet Addison :)

Just got back from my 34 week appointment at UCSF. There have been no changes to Kaden's condition, which to me is good news. They are estimating his weight at.....almost 5 lbs!! I thought Maxton was gonna be a HOSS--Kaden is going to give him a run for his money! Craig & I (and Logan) met Liz (Naylei's mommy) there this morning and we went up to the NICU to meet Marion & Jason and Baby Addison. Marion looked absolutely GREAT, (Jason did, too, but he did not just give birth!) and they were very uplifting. Addison is absolutely PRECIOUS--she is smaller than she looks in the pics on their blog. As you all probably know, she was put on ECMO on Friday night, but is doing well and getting the rest her little body needs. Please continue to keep her in your prayers. There were two other CDH babies in the NICU, too. Dr. Lee said that one of them had the tracheal occlusion done in-utero, and she is doing really well--Amazingly well, actually. He did say he couldn't say it was because of the TO procedure, or just that she would have done well anyway. Repeat after me, "NO CDH BABY IS THE SAME". But it is always good to hear of one doing great.

As for me, I am doing great...If I do say so myself. Dr. Lee said I will probably make it to at least 38 weeks, if not longer. Knock-on-wood...my AFL levels remains low (which I really hope means that Kaden is breathing and swallowing it up!) and my blood pressure, sugar levels (NO GD) and everything else is good. They checked my cervix today and there are no changes--still long and closed. So, continue to pray that he continues to remain content inside mommy and will come out close to 40 weeks with some functioning lung tissue:) Please pray for this boy to do amazing things when he does arrive...
