We got krispy kreme donuts one night after dinner. They loved running around at home with the hats on!
Sometimes they will sit nice by each other and not fight...but not often enough!
We took them bowling for the first time, and it was a success! They loved the little arcade as well and wanted to touch and do everything!
If you are good at looking at these kinds of pics, this one above shows her two kidneys and you can see how much larger the right one is than the left.
I had to get my ultrasound from the specialist when I was 25 weeks and 5 days...almost 26 weeks. It showed that her right kidney was still dilated, but the left one had gone down to normal. When this happens it is called, Pyelectasis. Which basically means that it could one of four things: 1: It could just be the hormones from pregnancy and will correct itself before she is born, this is the most common 2: Reflux, urine could be going back up 3: An obstruction that would require surgery after birth or 4: it is a soft marker for down syndrome. She has no other markers for that, her heart, brain, spine, arms, legs, hands, and feet were all normal and she was at a normal weight. They just can't rule it out because of my age. Also, in most of those cases, both of the kidneys are dilated.
So it wasn't what I wanted to hear, but they still said that it is very common and that I shouldn't worry. It won't cause any difference in the pregnancy and I have to go back around 32 weeks to get another scan. So hopefully when I go back it will be normal. I'm just trying to stay optimistic and positive that she will be healthy and won't have any complications. We are so excited for her to come join our little family!

I'm sorry you didn't get more definitive answers at the ultrasound but we are praying for a healthy baby!
So stressful I am sure her health is on your mind constantly! Hopefully the next ultra-sound will bring some peace.
