Hey everyone just wanted to give you all an update, I had my 18 week ultrasound and it's a GIRL...
She wouldn't coporate though and stayed on her belly the whole time, so I have to go back and try again in a couple of weeks to get all the right measurments and stuff.

So now on to the not so good news, you may recall me saying that even though this is my third child I haven't felt it move yet, well we found out today that I have BOTH anterior placenta AND partial placentia previa.
They had to do a vaginal ultrasound to see the placenta and discovered that there is a piece covering the opening of the cervix so now I'm back to worrying about this, first it was the bleeding in the first trimester then not feeling the baby move now this.

I'm trying not to get to worried because with my daughter who's about to turn two they thought that I was going to have placentia previa and I had to go to some specialist but it moved up some so I'm hoping for the best.

I was just shocked to find out I had both I didn't know that was even possible.

Congrats on the little girl! I am hoping for a girl next time I decide to have a baby.

Try not to worry too much (even though I know it is an automatic reaction). Doctors know how to deal with these things. :)

Congratulations, Crystal! Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well. I did not know one could have both anterior placenta and partial placenta previa. And I had placenta previa with my two children - no one explained that to me. Wishing you all the health and safety possible for a successful pregnancy and healthy baby.

Thanks guys you know how you just worry so much, I am scheduled to go back in 4 weeks then we will get all the information and check the status of the previa.
She said for now no intercourse or orgasims, AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Lite house work, lots of bed rest and watch for any spotting.
So I'm going to do what I'm told and hope for the best.

Congrats and I am sure everything will turn out just fine. By the way, haven't you been saying you thought it was a girl this whole time? It is strange how you just know sometimes.

Everyone keeps telling me I am going to have a boy but I really have no idea what I think it is. This is my first so I don't know what to think. I don't find out until mid October when I go for my 20 week ultrasound. One month seems so far away.
