PFO

It's open and accounted for! Don't ask me what PFO stands for because I can't tell you. All I know is that it's an opening between the right and left atrium and the cardiologist we saw in STL wanted us to have it monitored to make sure it was still there. We went to see the perinatologist this morning and everything is just the same as it always was, which is good news in my eyes.

We got to see his face a little better today, but sorry no pictures. He did have his arm in front of his face, but they pushed harder w/ the transponder or whatever that thing is and looked thru his arm to see his face. He has big lips! Maybe he will look like me...

He weighed 4 lbs 1 oz this morning. Two weeks ago he weighed 2 lbs 13 oz so he has gained over a pound in 2 weeks. They said that not every machine measures the same, but still, he is getting bigger and that's great news. We have another appt tomorrow w/ our regular midwife. More info to come....

Talk to you soon!
