Brody Update - GOOD NEWS!

Bill and I went to our Vanderbilt appointment today.  They could not see any issues!  I had about an hour long ultrasound and then they had a pediatric surgeon look at the results and then a MFM doctor came in to talk to us. They think everything looks good!  Now when I first started to hear this you can imagine my reaction was kinda more of shock because the perinatologist in Jackson seemed confident in his diagnosis and so I really started to question who was right but the Vandy MFM said it is a condition that is very hard to diagnose before birth and because of this the next step is we will go back to Vanderbilt on June 15 for them to look at everything again and then if it all appears on the up and up then we will proceed with the pregnancy like normal and NOT have to deliver at Vanderbilt. I'm not sure if God played a hand in turning this around or what but we are obviously taking the good news for what it is and are so excited to finally leave with a good appointment. Haven't had a "positive" doctor's appointment since February. Oh and the nugget weighs 3 lbs 5 oz so he is right on track.  Think we will actually both sleep well tonight!
