Baby Beck @ 15 weeks I finally had a good doctor's appointment this last Monday. Along with my hyperemesis I have recently started spotting and having contractions. At my recent appointment we decided to stop all things that went in my PICC line and trial nausea pills instead. If I do well for a week or so and do not become violently ill again, the PICC line can come out!!!!!
This ultrasound picture was taken when the were measuring my cervical length to make sure the contractions were not thinning out my cervix. The good news is my cervical length is 5 which is great!!!! We also determined the cause of my spotting. I have a low lying placenta, which means it is sitting right next to my cervical opening. When the placenta covers any part of the cervical opening it can lead to bed rest and a c/s. At this point there is still time for the placenta to move up as the uterus expands, so I am doing my best to not worry :)
Our little baby Beck is holding strong and growing like a weed. He/she has become very found of his/her hand. In the last 2 ultrasounds the hand has been right up to the mouth. We will also be finding out the sex and make sure all the organs are formed and normal on the 28th of this month. Just a few more weeks!!!!!!!
Return to work take 2 will also occur on Monday (Labor Day) and then off to Iowa next weekend for my little sister's wedding. Hopefully the PICC line will be out so I don't ruin all of the wedding pictures :)
