OB Update
Woohoo!!!
Things are looking good! Last week at this time, the "bad" area was 3.9 cm. It is now 1.2 cm! So, that is very good news. And, because it has stopped bleeding, the doctor says that the overall prognosis is quite good.
I will have to go back in a week for another sonogram to (hopefully) verify that the area has healed up completely. Which means another week of the same take-it-easy routine. No strenuous activity, don't spend too much time on my feet, blah blah blah. I will certainly do it because I would love to be able to report next week that the entire hemorrhaged area has healed up completely. Now, this is going to put a kink in my plans for the weekend which were supposed to include an annual meeting at church. But, I should be able to attend some of it as long as I'm not unreasonable about what I can and can't do. Mostly, I have got to be sensible. I have got to be sensible. I have got to be sensible. Gotta get it thru my thick skull. Got to be sensible. If I am a good girl and behave myself, then this time next week I'll be able to report a clear sonogram.
So - praise God for His blessings!!! The area is healing, the bleeding has stopped. The baby is growing and is very active. I do know that this isn't a promise of zero future problems, but right now, things are looking fantastic! THANK YOU so much for your prayers. There were a lot of bended knees on our behalf, and my heart is so full of gratitude just thinking about it.

Yeah, Sparkie! And I bet all that activity being done upon your uterus by your wee girlie is making you feel ever so nauseous, eh?????? I know the ways of these behbehs...the stronger and healthier they are, the worse Mama feels :)Yeah for shrinkage! Somethings are good to shrink: waistline (after the baby is born), debt load, foot size. Other things shrink that you don't want to: free space in your house after third baby is born, amount of sleep you get after third baby is born, that bra that fit the other two pregnancies....but one thing grows to accommodate all of your children: your favorite pair of stretchy maternity pants! Just kidding, it's your heart, but the maternity pants image is funnier.
WOOHOO!!!! This makes me happy. Not too much happiness going on in my "profession" getting "GOOD NEWS" is a sigh of relief. So if it's that big of a sigh of relief in my realm, I can't even imagine the sighs in your realm. Can't wait 'til Sparkie gets here.
Leah - Congrats on a good report! We got one two on Tuesday! BLP is growing and weighs 2.5 lbs and is in the 44th percentile :) measuring 3 days ahead.
