HALFWAY ALREADY!?

Oh my gosh. I can't believe Baby Trey is half-baked. It's just craziness, the time is f-l-y-i-n-g. Well today we had our 20 week appointment/ultrasound. I LOVE THESE DR APPOINTMENTS. Anyway, we were a little anxious about it just cuz you can't help but worry about things... But also because we had a little scare a few weeks ago with the baby and ended up finding out I had placenta previa. Luckily everything with baby was okay, actually things were great! They reconfirmed that he was 100% boy, and all of his measurements were perfect. I sort of stopped listening at that point, but they started saying things that made it clear they were more worried about the mom. They said to try not to get too worked up for now and that we'd hopefully get to the bottom of it at our next apt with Dr. Haskett. Hmm... so of course we've worried. Of course we went straight home and googled 'placenta previa' and read all of the horror stories. Then we decided to just keep hopeful and positive that it would correct itself. Because if not, it was gonna be BEDREST for me for the next 20 weeks. Pretty sure me and bedrest would NOT get along. I've been on "moderate bedrest" for the last 3 weeks, and even that was buggin. So ANYWAY, on with the HAPPY NEWS: We got to spend like 30 minutes spying on Treagan today. He was being such a good boy. He measured only a few days ahead, and his heart was just a beatin at 167 bpm. He let us see in all the right places. He was moving around like crazy. He definitely loves to have his hands up by his face, and his little legs were crossed for most of the apt. SO.DANG.CUTE. His little profile is my fave. The best part is they gave us a DVD of it and a bunch of pics! We'll post a few of those pics... As for the placenta previa. Dang it, it's still there. But Dr. Haskett seemed to be pretty hopeful that it's going to correct itself. Good news is we get to have an ultrasound every 4 weeks to check on it. The other good news is it's only covering it by 2 cm so I don't have to be on complete bedrest just yet. Just moderate. So still no exercise for me-bummer. But that's okay. We're just so happy and grateful that all was well with our sweet little baby! OH WHAT A GOOD DAY! WE LOVE YOU BABY TREY!!!

Yup, it's a BOY!!!

Oopsy, this one is upside-down. But this is where you can see his little legs crossed.

And my fave... His profile. Such a little stud-muffin already!
