So.. an update



Yesterday we went to the doctor again. Had another ultrasound and thankfully got in much sooner this time. It always seems like we wait... and wait... and wait... to be seen. The ultrasound tech was not my favorite. She seemed like she was in a HUGE hurry and that I was a slight inconvenience to her otherwise perfect day.

They said the placenta had moved up (yay!) Something I was expecting really. They couldnt really tell about the vasa previa this time. I am not ready to rule out that it is 'gone'. I asked Dr Boyle whether these things just 'go away' and he said that they don't. Therefore I have just decided that I will not be overly concerned and neither will I get really excited. We have a few more weeks before the diagnosis really matters. For now we are going to continue to treat it as if we do have this issue.

I am hoping that next time the ultrasound tech will really be looking at what is going on instead of pushing through the ultrasound like I am a customer at Mcdonalds. Our next appointment is in 2 weeks so I will find out more then. I did ask Dr Boyle how they handled Vasa Previas and he told me that if we ended up having it I would definatly be hospitalized with an amniocentisis after 30 weeks and c-section in the mid 30's.

The girls are moving a lot right now! It is so wonderful feeling their little taps! Hope you enjoy the new pictures!
