ok.. already another update..

ALEXANDRA IS HAPPY TO ANOUNCE THAT HER BABY BROTHER WILL BE BORN ON APRIL 25TH, 2008!!

They called me today to tell me when they scheduled my c-section...so now it is real & making me a bit nervous!!

Baby Update... 33 weeks

I had my ultrasound & doctors appt today.

Good news: Baby is a chunk ;) He weighs 5lbs 2 oz & is perfectly healthy! Organs, growth etc.

Stupid news: I still have placenta previa (which means the placenta is covering my cervix). So what that means is a c-section at 37 weeks. (4 weeks away) Holy crap- that is close. They will schedule it & then give me the date & I will let you all know.

It kind of takes the thrill out of giving birth for me...having to schedule it, but at least I will know what day the little man is coming.

Everything is great!

Have a good day!

I will keep you all posted!

Baby Update....

Went to my doctor appt. today. Everything looks great....I am measuring good & his heartbeat is great. My doctor said that she has more patients that have Placenta Previa right now & breech babies than she has ever had!! That makes me feel better....not that I want somebody else to have Placenta Previa...just that I don't feel like I am the only person in the universe!! A bit more positive thinking on my end now.

Yes... gained more weight...up another 2 lbs. I will take it!! Who cares... right?? Just as long as he comes out healthy....I have a feeling this weight is going to be easier to get off.

Ally came with me & was on her BEST behavior!! She did so good & asked my doctor tons of question about the baby coming out. She wants him out now! ;) She just has to wait! Mom or baby isn't ready yet!!

So there is your update!! I will have another in 2 weeks...
