We took Gracie to the urologist today (for her lack of a kidney). The doc was great. Last week the top docs magazine came out for our area and he was the top rated pediatric urologist. He looked at the ultrasound and report and said that everything looked great!
A normal newborn kidney is 5cm and Gracie's one kidney was 4.5cm. Since she was so small he thought she was right on track. Should she ever have an injury or infection her chances of a transplant are high since she has Brian and I and a twin sister. He told us that she doesn't really need any restrictions other than no professional football career. ;>) At the end of the appointment he wished us a nice life and told us we didn't need to follow up unless their was a problem.
Another hurdle crossed!

I agree...Hooray for one less thing to worry about!
Glad the appointment went well. Although I'm sure you're slightly disappointed that Gracie will not be able to pursue that football career. ;)
That's wonderful news!!!!
