Too Many Doctor Appointments

Despite the last few weeks and the many times Grayson and I have been to the doctor, I am so thankful that we are making it through it all. I'm thankful that we have doctors who can do things to fight all these annoying things.

So - two weeks ago my titers went back up and I had to head back to Hickory for another ultrasound to check on the baby. They are able to monitor the PSV (Peak Systolic Velocity) in a vein in Bennett's head which can tell us if he starts to become anemic. They measure this rate in MoMs (measures of multiples) and if we get to 1.5 then we will do an intrauterine blood transfusion (which I haven't done my research on yet but I've heard work miracles even though it's scary).

But at my last appointment on February 2nd, my MoM was at 1.1 so for now we are looking good. I go again Monday to check on the numbers. We are continuing to pray that he doesn't become anemic and that we make it without any blood transfusions!

I'm continuing to try to be thankful for all the good that still comes from a pain in the butt condition.  I'm thankful that we get to see our handsome little man lots of times and that they can monitor and check up on our sweet boy.

As for our other little munchkin - Grayson is still fighting an ear infection. We've been to the doctor 4 times in the past 4 weeks (3 for the ears and once when he was diagnosed with RSV). The RSV was the part that kicked our butt but luckily he seems to be getting past that. He's finally getting to where his appetite is back which makes this mommy very happy. He's still so tiny and I want him to pack on all the calories he can.  But this last time he still had the ear infection in his right ear and they are trying one more antibiotic. We go for another ear check on Monday and are hoping it is gone so that we don't have to do antibiotic shots for 3 days in a row - cause that sounds awful.

ANYWAYS - I know this is a boring update but I want to remember all these little details.

Keep praying for our boys! I fall in love more and more with Grayson and his sweet little personality every day and I can't wait to meet Bennett.  Life is good.
