Quick Update

Received my results yesterday from Thursday's lab tests. The protein in my urine has decreased to 483 milligrams!! This is down from two weeks ago! All other labs were normal! I've learned a bit about reading these results since the last test was done. Anything over 300 milligrams is considered high/abnormal for protein in urine. With Jacob's pregnancy during the 27th week I had over 3000 milligrams (3+ grams) of protein in my urine. When I was admitted to the hospital at the end of my 27th week of that pregnancy my protein levels were over 8000 milligrams (8+ grams) - dangerously high. Okay, enough about my urine.

Off to the post office to apply for Ava's passport so that she can be considered an official U.S. Citizen! With this - the girls adoption/citizenship paperwork will be COMPLETE!!!
