So....I've been going for my regular every 2 weeks ultrasounds and here is the conclusion thus far: although the placenta DID move 5mm to be a total of 7mm away from the opening of the cervix and that placed me into the "low lying placenta" category rather than "placenta previa", I still will likely have to have a c-section. Boo. In order to NOT need a c-section the placenta needs to be 2cm away from the cervix opening, and I just had a ultrasound 2 days ago and it hadn't moved from it's 7mm spot. When I see my doctor on Tuesday I'll get the date of the c-section and she'll let me know if they'll check one more time to confirm or not. As of today I am 34 weeks....and feeling all of it!
I did get to go out the other day, a woman in my ward took Connor for me for 5 hours! so I could get some Christmas shopping done. I accomplished alot and felt good....until the cashier at Michael's asked me when I was due and I told her Jan 14 and she was like "REALLY!!? The way you look I would have though you were due today!". Wow....thanks. Nope lady, I still have 6 more weeks to go. Some people are just so dumb.
On another note, I (finally!) finished the quilt I made for my friend who had a baby girl 10 days ago. It is the first quilt I stippled and binded (bound?). Luckily, both were relatively easy to do and I had access to people who know what they're doing and were able to guide me. Here is the finished product:
Maybe one day I'll be special enough to do a tutorial of my own! Happy December folks, I'm gearing up to buy the food this week for the ward Christmas Party happening Dec 10...wish me luck!
