Here we go again.....

I experienced yet another episode of bleeding last night. After two weeks of nothing, I thought maybe this stuff was over. I have a sonogram scheduled for Thursday. My doctor thinks my placenta is low and that is what is causing the bleeding. I don't know if it's my activity level (which is like a 3 on a scale of 1-10) or just randomness. I felt the little bugger moving around yesterday, so me thinks he just gave the placenta a good kick. Hopefully, the doctor can tell me something concrete on Thursday. They always say not to stress and there is nothing that you can really do to ensure the baby stays healthy, but I'm a little frustrated. Mostly because I feel like I'm not able to enjoy this pregnancy...which probably will be my last. I know as soon as this little one is born all of this will be forgotten, but right now August 23 seems so far away. I keep thinking, "I can't be only 15 weeks....I must be farther along than that". Well that's enough of the pity party!

There seems to be so much piling on right now and Justin feels the brunt of it. I feel so useless in easing his burden. Pray for wisdom as we decide where to go from here and what will be best for us.
