As I get closer and closer to the mid-point in my treatment, I am so proud of how "hard at work" Rett and I, my doctors, nurses, family, and friends have been to fight and roadblock the breast cancer! It has been quite a journey since August 24th and we have made fabulous progress on the tumor as well as creating and giving a healthy life to our precious child.
So today we celebrated that!

Foreman Jenna directing the countdown- only 6 more left! |
Next up - yes, it was a long day, was our 32 week ultrasound and check-up with Dr. Smith. Emma is weighing in a 4 pounds 1 oz and is back up into the 50th percentile! Her growth is right on track and her heart rate is a beautiful 133 bpm.
Emma has hair! It will definitely be a race between mom and daughter to see who can grow the full head of hair first! The fuzzy looking lines that the arrows are pointing to is her hair. |
She is waving hi! |
Such a lady with her ankles crossed...look at that tiny little foot! |
Love
Jenna
Way to GROW Emma! I know you've been worried about her growth, so I'm so glad she's packing on the pounds! Can't wait to see you again Saturday!
ReplyDeleteI am a friend of Cara's and came across your story. I find your situation & outlook to be so inspiring. Just thought I would let you know, I visit your blog often to see how you're doing. Hang in there! The Gilberts are pulling for you! And I LOVE the themes... certainly not the dismal, sad chemo treatments I recall my Dad going through. All the best!
ReplyDeletei love this construction theme!! and CONGRATS on baby emma's early arrival!
