Pregnancy Woes

It's a boy!
A picture of one of his feet.
The front of his face and you can see the umbilical cord in this one. Just below the side view and he was yawning in this picture.

On Friday I went to my doctor about the whole preeclampsia problem and she assured me that it is borderline at this point and I will just be monitored closely. I told her my sinuses were getting worse and she told me to just take some allergy medicine along with Mucinex D. I have been doing that and got really concerned in the middle of the night last night when I started coughing and couldn't stop for several minutes. My mom was worried too and took me back to the doctor today especially since I lost my voice 4 days ago and seemed to be getting a lot worse. I have bronchitis now and will be staying in bed most of the time for several days but at least I finally got some antibiotics. On the flip side I had an ultrasound yesterday and the baby is growing steadily and his growth rate is normal and fluid levels are normal. So the good news is the baby is great!
