I have officially entered the Third Trimester. Only 3 more months till we see Baby Cobb face to face. In the meantime, we had an eventful appointment this past Tuesday. I was tested for gestational diabetes, which came back negative and we also had another ultrasound. I wish I had more pics but she wasn't cooperating for us. Although, I think the pictures above of her head and ribs is neat.
As for what the Dr. said I wish I had better news. Baby Cobb was in the 23rd percentile at 5 months which was small but okay. However, she has since dropped to the 5th percentile. Dr. said that this means she is abnormally small for her age. It could be due to multiple reasons though. It could be stress, the placenta may not be properly attached meaning she doesn't get the nutrients she needs, or it could be that the ultrasonographer measured a millimeter off when doing the ultrasound. So this is some troublesome news, however, the Dr. reassured us by saying that in the ultrasounds conducted there has been no abnormalities noted, which is good.
So, what now? Well, I go to the doctor a week from Monday for another regular check up. We won't find out any information at this visit. But we go back for an ultrasound 3 weeks from Monday and should find out more then. Until then pray Baby Cobb catches up, at least to the 20th percentile.
Her nursery is coming along. We've finished most of the painting and have gotten her dresser. We still have to paint some furniture and buy some furniture. I will post more pics of the nursery once there has been progress.
