Today I had my 16 weeks OB appointment. I just have to
start by saying I absolutely love my midwife and the care I get there. I'm so
thankful for that!
At 13 weeks, after a scare, an ultrasound confirmed that
I had placenta previa. Although I wanted them to check at this visit my midwife
said it just hadn't been enough time for it to resolve yet. So I continue with
pelvic rest (bummer!) They will check again at 19 weeks, or before we fly to
Norway, whichever comes first.
Overall, everything went well. Our small fry's heartbeat
is in the 150s. While our midwife was listening to the heart beat I felt a
flutter and the Doppler picked up some static. She asked me, "That was the
baby moving...did you feel it?" It was a feeling I had felt before but
thought surely there was no way I was feeling the baby move so early!! It was
cool to have her confirm that it was indeed the baby I had been feeling.
Only a short week and a half until we find out the
gender!!! I am so stinking excited!!!
