Ultrasound Round #3



So, I had my third ultrasound today....
Just a reminder you want to enlarge the picture, just click on it so you can see him a bit bigger! So, the ultrasound went ok - he looks good (i.e. is healthy - no worries for growth or abnormalities, etc...) and got some good 3D pictures of his little face today.
The unfortunate finding is that my placenta is still less than a centimeter from my cervix. So...I have to go to another ultrasound in 6 weeks because there is still hope that the placenta will 'move' away from the cervix. And that ultrasound should be able to tell us more -- they're just calling it "marginal previa" right now, not "placenta previa".
Anyway, I also had my first childbirth preparation class tonight.
It went well...my instructor is Laurel Lee, a CNM (Certified Nurse Midwife)
and she seems very cool and laid back.
Chrissy, my doula attended the class with me and Laurel said she was welcome to join each class along with whomever I wanted to bring (she acted like I could show up with as many people as I wanted to which was cool).

So here are the pics - you can see his little face...it's changed a lot! As you can see, the difference between 2D and 3D is just amazing - it's kinda scary but in a super fun house sort of way too! More later - it's late and I'm starting my work week tomorrow.
