Follow up appointment today

Last week at our Dr. appointment it showed on my ultrasound that I had high amniotic fluid levels and baby girl was measuring 3 weeks ahead. My dr's first thought was that I had Gestational Diabetes because when you have gestational diabetes you have bigger babies and higher fluid levels. Thankfully I had passed that test so we knew that wasn't the problem. Unfortunately that put me and baby at a higher risk for preterm labor and other issues. I am HAPPY to report that our daughter is fine and this week my fluid levels were a bit lower so for now we are in the clear. Fluid levels were 27 and now they are 23. This puts them still in a high range but in the mildly high range. Both Sean and I are extremely happy that everything is ok with our baby girl. Due to the risk involved I we also have 3D ultrasounds last week and today to check to make sure she didn't have a cleft lip. Last week they didn't get a clear picture of her upper lip because she was hiding her face. Today we got some AMAZING pictures of her face. I'm starting to agree with Sean and my mom that she looks like me. These pictures really make me even more excited and impatient to meet her!!!
