Baby Update

We went into the doctor today for an ultrasound. Our little girl is doing very well. She finally decided to cooperate for some pictures so we could see her lip. It turns out that it looks like her cleft lip will be pretty minor. We were so realived to hear this. We are going to be referred to the cleft clinic at Primary Childrens within the next couple of days and should be attending soon. Here is a picture of her ultrasound, where you can see the cleft image. It is on the left side and it doesn't appear to go all of the way to her nose which is great news. It is amazing what they can do with technology these days. They did try to look at the Palate, and they told us that it is very difficult to see on an ultrasound. They were not able to see any fluid in there, so they think that is a really good sign. Sometimes when they are more severe you can see the fluid and know right away that the Palate is affected. They also looked again at the rest of her features. Here heart is good, her brain looks good, and they don't see any other concerns. Yeah! For now, we are just going through each day and looking forward to going to the clinic so we can learn more, and know what to expect. Isn't our little girl just beautiful! I can't get over her peaceful little look. We love you baby girl!
