24 weeks

Went back to the doctor on Friday, April 1st for another sonogram. My placenta is still looking low so we go back on April 20th to do a vaginal sonogram to see just how low it is. The doctor still doesn't seem too worried but I am. I really don't want to have a c-section. I want to get up after I have the baby and take a shower and eat Chick-fil-a and not hurt. If my placenta is 2 inches above my uterus then I can go ahead with natural birth. I know I am carrying Little Miss really low this time. Also at this next appointment I will have to do the glucose test to see if I have diabetes. I told Charles he didn't have to stay for that but he said he didn't get to go to many of my doctor appointments with Cassie and he now has a job where he can be there. Of course after he sits there for an hour with me, he may change his mind.

It has been cool to get to see Little Miss (my nickname for her) so many times. Sonograms have changed so much in the last 4 years. This time, Charles and I were able to see that we were having a girl even before the sono tech told us. There is just so much more detail.

Here is a picture of the 3D that she showed us. She has my profile which Charles is not thrilled about but I guess my no chin profile is more genetic. This picture freaked my dad out. He said maybe technology is getting too advanced that we can see this much detail.

I can't wait to meet her. We have 105 days to go!!
