The 28 Weeks of Buttonhood

On Tuesday morning, I had my second ultrasound. The first go-around back at 19 weeks revealed not only a sweet baby girl, but also a low-ish placenta, which isn't a good thing to see. A 28-week scan was scheduled to take another look, in hopes that the placenta would migrate northward. A co-worker who'd had a similar scenario with her first pregnancy suggested that I "visualize the placenta moving up." So, I tried it out, and maybe it helped because yesterday we got the good news. Placenta is up (yay) and Button is still a girl (double yay!). Button, it was very cool to be able to see you again. Your Dad and I were amazed by your little moving mouth and your tiny eyelids blinking back at us. Can't wait to meet you in few short months!
