The words no parents want to hear
To pick up where I left off...we went to our March 28 appointment and verified she was a girl! I knew all along but hearing it was amazing! We were so excited we took the kid and Kayla video tapped the ultrasound. It was an amazing moment. Following the ultrasound we went back to the waiting room to wait to see the doctor. While in the waiting room we called everyone and even posted it on Facebook. We were so excited! We were called back for my appointment and the kids were trying so hard to be good. We waited and waited. Finally the doctor came in and I laid back for her to measure my belly. Except...she didn't. She held out her hand and pulled me back up and stood in front of me and said, "there's a small problem with the baby." She went on explaining their was fluid in her lungs and she didn't know enough about it to know what to do. She said it was probably not a big deal, but I should see a specialist. Then she left the room. I had the sensation of watching the scene from afar; As if my body wasn't my own. We gathered the kids and headed down the hall to get my Quad screen and then left. I cried all the way home. Ryan kept saying everything was fine. Looking back, I knew that it wasn't "nothing". I knew!
