The family had another sonogram and doctor appointment today.

The doctor found the cysts to be growing rapidly and similar to that of a mass, but it is all very uncertain as the characteristics do not align strictly with either diagnosis. 

In light of this discovery, the doctor will confer tomorrow with her partners and neonatalogists as to what the next steps should be. It is her belief that the best option would be to deliver earlier than the planned 37 weeks. 

An MRI is being scheduled to allow the doctors more data to interpret. The mother is scheduled to receive steroids to ensure max lung development for Claire. 

Better news is that little baby Claire weighs around 5 lbs and is going to be tall with her legs still measuring a week ahead of schedule. 

And a not so great, but still nice treat:
Her face!
