Placenta on the rise

Following our now bi-weekly doctor's appointment, we have some good news.  My placenta has moved out of the way so now our boy can be born without a cesarean.  Some other news is that our little guy isn't so little! Currently at 31 weeks he weighs 4lbs 4oz.  If we go another 9 weeks, he will likely be 9-plus pounds! Can we say ouch! Maybe we should hope for about 7 more weeks and 7 to 8 pounds. But as long as he is healthy we won't have any complaints.

I have been given the go ahead to continue to work as long as my back pain and swelling don't get any worse. We will continue to monitor it every two weeks from now on.

Unfortunately we did not get any sono pics this time as he was facing my back and didn't want to turn around. But, in just a short time we will have more than enough pictures to go around. We can't wait! Should we start taking bets on who he is going to look like? My money is on Chris with maybe some red hair like I had.
