I got some reassuring news from my OB almost two weeks ago. My placenta is still mainly posterior (toward my back) like it should be, but the end of it is covering my cervix. Originally, I was supposed to go in for another ultrasound this Friday. However, after meeting with Dr. Christen, they cancelled that ultrasound and moved it back to 28 weeks. This is good news! I was originally looking at the possibility of bedrest beginning in October, but now I don't have to worry for another month...unless I have any bleeding.
It's been neat to feel her moving around. She is kicking the crap out of me daily and starting to develop patterns as to when this happens. Justin (when he's not in bed early) is able to feel her kicking around after I lay down in bed for the night. The other night she kicked/punched him HARD and I made sure to let him know just how much fun it was to have her do that to my bladder. It can take my breath away, it's so hard!
I've finally started to show and am officially in maternity pants. Most of my shirts stil fit considering what I wear tends to be loose or stretchy, anyway. It was strange how quickly I went from not really showing at all to needing to be in maternity pants completely. I have to say they're a LOT more comfortable than regular pants at this point! Plus, I found a really cute pair of jeans that I love. :) My stomach is now hard and round and I can feel her kicking higher in my belly. Time to break out the camera for those embarassing belly pics for the scrap book! I'll consider posting one soon.
On another note, I'm looking forward to a girls day with a good friend on Saturday devoted entirely to catching up on scrapbooking. I'm SO far behind and really excited to get a handle on things. I'm going to have to be picky about what I scrapbook at this point, so I'll be starting with the cruise to Alaska we took in September of 2007 and then possibly moving on to our Disneyland trip this past May. It's so easy to get behind, but a fun way to catch up!
