Being prego, to me, is not fun. I don't feel well at all, my face makes me look like i warped back into time to my sophomore year of high school, & I'm big. Just down right big! But I am excited for another addition to our little ohana (family).
I was finally able to have a Dr. appointment last week. I not only received 1 but 2 ultra sounds! With Lilianna we only had 1 to find out if she was a girl. So I was kind of excited to receive an addition ultra sound. The 1st one was done while at my Dr. appointment to determine how far along I actually am & our due date. We were farther along that I had calculated making me excited :) My 2nd ultra sound was done on a volunteer basis. It was to determine if our little bambino has any birth defects. Taylor did not want me to get the 2nd one done, for some reason I felt like I needed to. I know that certain health issues run on his side of the family, as well as mine, so I wanted to be positive that everything was going well. Everything on the ultrasound looked great, but they did determine that I have placenta previa (read about it here) & told me to take it easy. Placenta previa could potentially cause complications later on in the pregnancy & is fairly common. I've had the opportunity to speak to many friends who have gone thru a similar situation, but luckily their placenta seemed to corrected itself, which makes me feel less worried. We just hope & pray for a healthy little bambino to join our family!
