(((KD)))

So, your little guy CAN dance, huh?

Such WONDERFUL news! Thanks for the update.

I continue to hold you and your family close in my prayers.

*rolling around*

Oh, PERFECT!!!!!

Never loved the image so much before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hehe.

Karen, I've never loved that image before either. Appropriate, huh?


Daughter's been hypothyroid due to over treatment...so not only was she hypothyroid she was getting drugs to make her moreso on top of that! He was getting both as well.

The most common thing that can happen is a thyroid goiter for the baby (daughter already has a huge one). They're doing a high risk ultrasound Thursday to check everything but mostly for goiter. We pretty much know he's been hypo recently, but if he has a large one that could tell dr's maybe how severe his got?

They can do a special procedure to draw blood from his umbilical cord, but we don't know if that will happen yet. They may wait to see if it stablizes on its own. If it doesn't now that she's off the drugs, they may do it then inject the drugs he needs right into the amniotic fluid.

My daughter's main concern at this point (outside of him being ok now) is what could a three week period of hypo done to him, his development. She talks with her OB today. Her OB is supposed to call the endo to find out what he's thinking and recommends.

I feel in my mother's/mammaw's heart that he's going to be just fine now. I really do. My head gets in my way sometimes, though.

I know continued hypo for mother and baby can cause alot of problems, and worse, but we're thinking he was only hypo for about three weeks.

We have to watch daughter closely now that she's off the drugs for hypo signs and watch/monitor her emotional stability as well. Going hyper can really do a number on the body AND mind.

Please continue to pray/send thoughts and I'll keep y'all updated. We have a specific prayer outside of guidance for doctors and wisdom, and that's that the hypothyroidism didn't affect him more than slowing him and down he returns to our little guy who's done perfectly AGAINST THE ODDS. What a fighter our little man is already.

KD

Sending prayers and good thoughts.

I have to say I believe in my heart that thursday is a good day for
testing.

Donna

Will continue to pray for your daughter and baby!

Judy

KD is at the hospital and just called..........baby is going to be delivered soon as the endo felt ultrasound indicated urgency

Please pray

Thanks so much for letting us know.

It's to be an emergency C section

the baby is tiny, estimated 5 lbs and heartrate plus amniotic fluid are low
Still dont know if he has a goitre, hence the C section as safer

Please pray for all to go well and for KD to see her lil grandson soon and not have to be so worried anymore
