Yesterday A went for her 3 month heart appointment. We were there for over two hours in total - they did an echo (ultrasound) of her heart as well as an EKG to measure the electrical currents. During the echo she was crying quite a bit, so they did not get a lot of really clear pictures. The technician thought she saw a tiny 1 mm hole still (it was 4 mm at two weeks of age), though it was a little flap more than a hole and the cardiologist herself thought that the test was inconclusive and there may not be a hole at all! She also couldn't really hear a murmur, so she was really happy and we do not have to go back until A is 2 years of age.
They also weighed and measured her and here are her current stats. It's kind of funny, but according to the last measurements we had she was taller 3 weeks ago! This place uses a more accurate form of measurement though, so I would say it is correct. She is gaining weight though, almost 1 lb in these three weeks! Not the chunk that her sister is, but still gaining.
20.9 inches long
8 lbs 13 oz
Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts.

That is such good news! YAY!
oh, I'm glad it's getting smaller and may be non-existent!
That is great news! I know what it feels like to have a daughter with a heart defect. We lived in a constant state of fear for over a year where Micah wasn't even aloud to cry for more then a couple seconds.
Hopefully everything looks clear and healthy at her 2 year check up.
