17 +2

I was bleeding again yesterday and luckily it began when my mom was here to feed me lunch so she took me to the hospital, they did a thorough u/s and turns out now i have 2 placenta previas!!!!!!! and my cervix is too short! so three reasons for me to bleed :( I've been referred to a high risk twin ob/gyn at another hospital and they will monitor me more closely so more appnts, and possible a home care nurse FML :( On a happier note, I think I could tell that one baby might be a girl from the u/s!! I'm going to check the hamburger/hot dog theory from the sites I found with the u/s pic :D

16.5 weeks photo update

I finally had a chance to upload a photo of my baby bump from 16 weeks. The bump is growing slowly and I'm still tired of being on bed rest. Hopefully only 3 more weeks to go!

Week 16 (4 months)

Well I've made it to 4 months! 6 more months to go! I just hope I don't end up spending them in bed.

I started bleeding again last night, pretty much exactly to the day when I had the bleeding how frustrating. I'm still bleeding but not a lot so i'm staying in bed and not moving unless i really have to. It's going to make for a very boring weekend I know that much but I just have to keep telling myself that it's for a good cause. In 6 months I'll get to meet my two munchkins.

It's the first beautiful weekend i n Ottawa and unfortunately I have to spend it in bed. It didn't affect me so much when I was spending it in bed and it wa pouring outside but now I think the nice summery weather is here to stay. So all I have to entertain myself are a bunch of pregnancy books, tv and the laptop. I think I'll have to buy some books online to entertain myself b/c there is only so much surfing and tv I can do before going crazy!

My baby bump is starting to grow. I'll have to get Jimmy to take a quick picture of it when I get up to go pee so that I'm not standing for too long. I know the family have been asking to see it.

Well, I guess I'll sign off now and go shopping for books!

Week 15

So I've made it to second trimester without any problems. Wishful thinking.

I'm now at 15 weeks and been in and out from the hospital. Long story short I had some bleeding near the end of my 14th week and it turned out to be a partial placenta previa. Not good. I've been put on bed rest until at least June 12. Next u/s isn't until June 10 so hoping by that u/s my placenta is in a better position that I can slowly return to my daily routine it's just a waiting game now. Both babies are ok luckily I just have to make sure to take it easy.

Some things I've learned so far from being on bed rest:

daytime tv sucks
My nighbours play the same song at the same time every day!
The school bus that picks up the kids at my corner is usually late by 1 or 2 minutes never more, never less

BABY A (the one causing the previa)
