Gray girls are way out-numbered!

Lilypie Expecting a baby Ticker

So the new news... we are having another boy! I was so sure this was going to be my last pregnancy until we found out it was for sure a boy. All the sudden I was really sad that Abby wasn't going to have a sister. So I'm not saying that that there won't be a number 5 anymore. Anyways, I was measuring big so my OB had me get an ultrasound to find out if the due date (Aug. 3) was right. The Ultrasound tech and Doctor both said everything looked good and the baby was measuring right on. So we left thinking everything was fine. The next day my OB office called and said I have a very low lying placenta (placenta previa) and that I have to be on pelvic rest for a month or until they can see it's getting better. From everything I've read and what the Doc told me, in most cases the placenta moves up on it's own as the baby gets bigger. So I'm hoping that's the case with me. Otherwise I guess I'll just look forward to the mini tummy tuck that comes with a C-section delivery (which I could really use). My clothes are already not fitting (which is not supposed to happen for at least another month)! So I've either got to get out of the house and get some new clothes or break out the box of maternity clothes. Anyone want to go shopping?

OH MY GOSH! First of all congratulations and I'm WAY excited that you're having a boy! We always said we'd have kids together right? FINALLY- even though this is your fourth and my first but they will be so close in age which will be way fun. 2nd, didn't I just talk to you last week or something and you didn't say one thing?? DUH, I have to find out from your Blog. You're in TROUBLE!! Congratulations though.
