Revised Information!!!
My grandbaby is TWO MONTHS along! After Thanksgiving holiday they will be starting on their second trimester! Shannon does have risks, but they feel very optimistic.
They have an ob/gyn specialist whose expertise is in high risk pregnancies, and Dr. Volin will keep a very close eye on them. In fact, they have already gone through lab work to confirm a normal pregnancy (they passed with flying colors) which has put their minds at ease. So far this baby is truly a "MIRACLE" (Dr. Volin’s exact words). They also have an ultrasound scheduled on October 24. At this time they’ll be able to see the baby and his/her tiny beating heart! WooHoo!!

Wahooooo!!! 8 weeks is so much better than 2 when it comes to high risk, but of course, nothing beats 40 weeks!!! :)
Love that first ultrasound when you see that little heart just pumping, makes me get nostalgic just thinking about it!! I'll keep praying, you keep updating!!!

Thanks, Julie!
The ultrasound will be awesome!
How far along do you have to be to find out if it's a boy or a girl?
It's been 30 years since I had a baby!

That is so awesome that she is further along, just that much closer to a healthy little baby! Around week 20 they do the gender ultrasound. They can do it as early as 16 weeks, but my doctor(who knows all) says it's worth the wait for week 20 as that is the best week out of the whole pregancy to determine a baby's sex.

Interesting! (I knew one of you young women would have the answer!)
Shannon's due date is June 4, but it'll be a C-section, so the doctor may want to do it before Memorial Day.
Ginger and I had halfway planned to run the Boulder 10K that weekend anyway. Perfect, huh?
