NEGATIVE

I called the hospital AGAIN to see if my lab work was done this morning. I swear you have to hound them to find out anything. Anyway she had to go into the computer into different screens she said to find out the results so I guess that's why they never knew they were done. Good news is the CMV and the toxoplasmosis labs were both negative. Those are bad infections to have. I was pretty sure I wouldn't have the toxoplasmosis, but you never know with CMV since I do work around sick babies, some with weird viral infections. I try to stay away from those ones of course, but you don't always know what different babies may be carrying. Anyway the bad news is I had a feeling yesterday that they weren't telling me everything about the ultrasound. Something about the lab work just didn't add up. It didn't make sense to me that they would be ordering the infection labs if she were just measuring big. So I called my dr office yesterday and FINALLY found out the ultrasound report that she was measuring about 1.5 weeks ahead but it also states a possible enlarged liver. UGH. I knew there was something. I wish they would have been honest with me at the ultrasound appt. Maybe they didn't want to stress me out, but they shouldn't take me for an idiot either. Anyway I don't really know what that means. What I had seen online is that infection is usually the #1 cause of this, so I'm sure that's why this lab work was ordered. Since I don't seem to have any infection, I'm not sure what it could be. I did see somewhere that a big baby could cause this too. I'm also hopeful on the fact that it says "possible" in the report. My dr. is on vacation until Monday so I guess I will just wait and try calling her next week to see if she can maybe answer what it could be for me. Anyway that's all I know now. Pregnancy is stressful. I don't think I will calm down until she is actually here and I can see she is ok.
