June 16th Visit

i never gave details about the last visit other than the envelope situation so i thought i'd update you on a few other little details. Sprout looks to be progressing very well and all looks normal. i've gained 10 lbs now total, which is right on target for where i should be at this point. Sprout's weight was 14 oz. well, this is the only part that perhaps concerns me because the average norm for this point in pregnancy is about 9-11 oz. so...i guess this 'little' Sprout is a bit on the big side. the good new is, there were no bugging eyes from the doc or raise of concern so i guess all is well for now.

on the 'not so pretty' side of things, i was showing signs of placenta previa. That means, the placenta is currently in the way of delivering. so basically, if i were to deliver right now i would have to have a c-section. that's the worse case scenario...so not that big of deal. this is quite common and chances are very high that it will move and correct it's position by the time it needs to. they will be doing another ultrasound on my next visit (July 14) to monitor this and hopefully we'll get more photos of Sprout then too.
