July 16th Blood testing

Hil went in for some blood testing and normal check up stuff today. They told her that her blood work looked great from last time, and her blood pressure is great. They listened to the heartbeat for a good while the Midwife told her that all the scratching noise she heard in the back ground was the baby moving around, she also commented that the baby is very active. Her foot is a little swollen because she has a plantars wart on the bottom of her foot that is going to have to be removed next Monday to prevent an infection. If you have ever had one of those you know how painful it is and just add pregnant into the mix. Pregnant + Plantars wart = miserable. The blood work taken today was to find out if there is a chance of any birth defects. I know we have prayed about this alot so we believe it will come out clean because its not in our hands anymore. The midwife also told Hil that there is a chance of a false positve so if the email results say positive dont be alarmed she will simply have to go to a specialist for follow up testing. Hopefully there will be more GOOD news of the test results soon to follow.
