Visit to Dr. Campbell

Monday was a big  day for us.  Jeff and I celebrated out 7th anniversary and we got to see our baby girl by ultrasound.  My doctor sent me to see Dr. Campbell, a high risk OB, because I tested positive for gestational diabetes.  Our visit went great.  My sugar is being kept under control by diet and most important our baby girl looks healthy!  My Mom and sister Jill were able to join Jeff and I so they were able to get a sneak peak at her also.  Dr. Campbell estimated her at about  2lbs and 10 ounces.  He did an extensive ultrasound which let him see all her important "parts" and said she looked very healthy.  We did find out she is breech, but he and my doctor assured me there is plenty of time for her to turn herself around.  She is quite the little acrobat right now.  She had her legs up  by her head and we were able to watch her grab one of her feet with her hands.  Amazing.
