A growth discovered....in my abdomen!
About 15 weeks ago my primary care physician discovered a somewhat parasitic growth in my abdomen. It was small...but growing rapidly.
She reassured me that these types of growths are rarely fatal and that everything would be fine but suggested I see a parasitic growth specialist to get another opinion.
I did just that.
The appointment went well. A lot of questions were answered and fears abated.
There are no immediate plans for removal but removal and/or passing of the growth is inevitable and should take place in the next 19-20 weeks.
It will be rather painful and will take a bit of recovery but I am confident I will bounce back from it in no time.
How do I know?
Because it has been that way every other time...
I have had a baby!
SURPRISE!
(By the way...we had our BIG ultrasound today...everything (that they could see) looks good. Wanna know the sex? TOO BAD! You only get one secret at a time. Yeah....I am that mean!)

Congratulations Melanie!!! You had me going there for a second, at first I thought oh maybe she is pregnant and then I kept reading and thought, no, it sounds serious, poor melanie, and then I read the whole thing. You are so funny. The first time I get on the computer to check blogs in a long time and what a great surprise! I am so happy for you! I hope you are feeling good! I will eventually update my blog. I am horrible at it.
You crazy woman! I am so excited. You've got to be showing now. It is number 4. I started showing at 13 or 14 weeks with Jenna. So, do we have to wait till he or she is born to know what it is? I've waited this long I guess, what's a few more months! I hope you are feeling good.
