Heartbeep

So we went to the midwives today for my monthly look-see. So I thought I would update all of you.
Sadie came with me and was very excited to listen to the heartbeep, as she calls it.

The ultrasound showed that the placenta is too close to the cervix right now. But that is something that usually changes. As your uterus gets bigger the placenta moves away most of the time. So we will have to have another ultrasound in the 3rd trimester to be certain it has moved. If it hasn't then they begin discussing other options, namely c-sections. Yikes!
But something like 90% of placentas get out of the way in time, so I'm choosing not to worry until I have to.

So the heartbeep is plugging along. I am 22 weeks on Friday. Only 18 more (at the most- PLEASE!) to go!

And I would tell you how much weight I've gained in the past 4 weeks- but then I'd have to kill you.
