Abby's Heart



Last week we had our follow-up visit to the Pediatric Cardiologist to check out Abby's heart issues (ASD and VSD) the specialists spotted at 21 weeks, and again 24 hours after she was born. At the exam, neither her doctor, nor the senior specialist on staff could spot any problem with her heartbeat, so they concluded the problems have been healed and no follow-up is necessary!

The docs had expected it to take 1-2 years...it took eight weeks. Among the questions asked, "Is she lethargic at all?" To which we answered a resounding "NO!" We are so thankful for her healthy heart and continue to enjoy her enthusiastic personality.

Sarah--I am a Covenant alum. and found your blog through Jenny and have been a frequent lurker! :-) Glad to see the delivery went well and that Abby's heart is looking good. Thanks for the tips on flying. My husband and I are west coasters now too (Central California) even though our families are all back in Florida. Flying with a baby is definitely going to be an adventure for us in the near future.
