We have some more Kymani news and new ultrasound pics! This is Kymani Lyrique Rowell at 29 wks, 3 days gestation. So, we are obviously still pregnant and that's a good thing. She needs to cook a bit longer!

She's doing very good for a baby at this stage and is actually bigger than they thought she might be. She weighs in at 2 lbs and 14 oz, which is almost three pounds and a little ahead of the average weight at this stage. Everything looks good.

Ideally, we want her to stay put for as long as possible. But she has a high chance of survival if she decides to come early. Still no contractions, which is good. She only has a low amount of fluid surrounding her because of my water breaking.

But despite that, she is doing fine and it will be okay for her to stay in there longer. They'll just continue to monitor us both until labor starts and she comes. Keep sending positive thoughts that she stays inside until at least 34 weeks. It happens, but the usual in these instances is 1-10 days after the water breaks.

So it could be sooner. We want it to be later, but at least now we do know that if it's sooner, she is very likely to be okay. She will spend time in the NICU if early, which is normal. But they can't estimate how long until she's here and we just see how it goes then.

It's the same with the labor. There's no way to estimate an exact time it will happen. Better to just rest, hope she stays in longer, and just go with the flow. It's all a waiting game.

Keep an eye on the blog for more of Kymani's journeys!

Kymani's Travels

Lyn Lomasi & Richard Rowell gave birth to little Kymani Lyrique on June 8, 2017! She was born prematurely at just 30 weeks gestation. But miraculously, she only stayed in the NICU for about a month and has been either on track or ahead for her age, thus far.

Kymani is an East African name, which is traditionally male and means "adventurous traveler".
Since when do we do anything traditional or follow gender-specific "norms"?

In this family, she will definitely live that traveler legacy, proving such with her premature entrance, even though that is NOT what we had in mind when we gave her that name prior to birth.

Lyrique is an alternative spelling of Lyric and she is proving to be very musical, always dancing. Join us as we recount the adventures leading up to her birth, as well as her life adventures afterward.
