Sorry for my absence from blog land, life is really busy at the moment. We have recently bought a rural property 36 acres 20 mins out of town and are currently renovating. we are living in a tiny cottage on the property while we renovate the main farm house. I am starting to stress that it won't be ready before pumpkin's arrival.
I had my 20 week scan and pumpkin is doing well they did pick up that i have placenta previa that completely covers my cervix. and i am worried as the dr said that at about 27 weeks i am likely to have a bleed and have to go to hospital for up to a week. they can usually stop the bleed the first time but every bleed after the first increases my chances that pumpkin will be a premie. and i also really didn't want to have to have a Cesarean in my pregnancy journey. So now i am feeling really anxious again that all is not as it should be.
oh and it looks like pumpkin is a boy!!!!!! i really want my little man to be ok.

I'm sorry to hear about the placenta previa. I had a full previa in my first pregnancy. For the record, I did not bleed at all and the placenta migrated very slightly, enough to allow my doctor to give me the choice of a C-section or an induction (because he didn't want me laboring at home). I went for the induction and things went perfectly and my daughter was born healthy at 39 weeks, not a preemie at all! I know placenta previa is nerve-wracking and scary and it definitely increases the risks in a pregnancy, but I want you to know that there's hope!
