Good News from Doctor

I went to the doctor today and everything looked great. The baby's heartbeat was strong and the baby even kicked the doctor(we heard the whish) The baby is very active and is growing! The doctor said for me to continue to take it easy. I go back to her in 4 weeks and she said after that if everything keeps progressing she doesn't have any worries I'll make it to the end. I feel so much better. In 2 more weeks we get to find out what we are having!! {Even though I know it's a girl)

Trip to the Specialist

Last Friday I went to see a specialist to find out that I have 20 percent of my placenta detached. The good news is the baby is still growing and getting all the food it needs right now. The baby was between 48 to 54 percent in all areas of growth which is great! The doctor said in most cases it is fine. The baby grows and it turns out to be a healthy strong baby. We have been praying that is the case. She said the best thing for me to do it rest as much as possible. I am trying to stay positive and strong for my little one. I know that is in God's hands and I have a wonderful support system. Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers!! We go back to the specialist in 3 weeks where we will find out the sex and see the growth and in a week for our normal check-up!

Happy New Year!

I hope that everyone has a happy 2009! I know Chris and I are so excited about bringing a baby into our world this year. I will be 16 weeks on Sunday, so only 4 more weeks until we find out what we are having. I just have a feeling that it is going to be a baby girl, but I could be totally wrong. When we got the ultrasound at 14 weeks the doctor kept calling the baby a she. I caught on and asked her why. She said if it is a boy you can usually tell at 11 weeks, but she is not sure. We will have to see. Chris really wants his first to be a boy to play sports with, but I know he will fall in love with a baby girl!! I am finally getting my energy back and my apetite has increased this week. I will keep you posted!!
