Great news!!
Today's ultrasound showed that Payton is well on track for her abdominal circumference. In fact, we got just a little bit more info from the ultrasound technician as they were measuring her abdomen and we relalized how arbitrary the area they choose to measure is ESPECIALLY with a diaphramatic hernia baby.
Normally they use plane level to the stomach and the left portal vein at the umbilical region. Without the stomach in her abdomen for further guidence the plane used for measurements has a bit more room for error. Thus, its not 100% sure whether the technicial was measuring too high in her abdomen today or too low 2 weeks ago.
Regardless, we're very happy that she's showing good growth and that things (ie doppler and fluid) are supporting the fact that Payton's growth is normal.
There was no cervix measurement today but the placenta still covers the cervix and is still classified as Complete Previa. We were told to expect a c-section date this afternoon.
