My mood while writing this blog: sad |
Hi all, I am sorry I have not updated in awhile. I have had so much happening in my life. To sum it up ... I went for an ultra sound and they told me that my amni fluid level was very low. I went to see a new ob and she sent me back to the other ob telling me I was too high risk. I had another ultra sound and they told me the fluid was back up to normal.
On July 9th my mom had decided to give up her fight with Multiple Sclerosis and Diabetes. She had been in the hospital for some time in alot of pain. Mom signed off the papers to stop taking her meds and only take pain killers to help keep her comfortable. I had a very difficult time with her decision. I have spent alot of time at the hospital with her. She had explained to me that she is very sorry she cant wait to see the baby, that she is just so sick of suffering. One week to the day of her decision July 16th mom passed away. I am having a really hard time dealing with her loss. I have to say this is the most difficult time in my life. I am trying to stay strong but its not easy. I miss her so very much. I am just not ready to let her go. : (
The day after her passing I had an appointment with the ob that I just could not get out of. The ob told me that ontop of all the other issues I am having with this pregnancy that I have a low lying placenta. I was told to take it really easy. The low lying placenta can cause bleeding. Has anyone else had this???
I am now waiting for the hospital to contact me for a special high risk ultra sound to check on the placenta.

Thursday, 30 Jul Im so sorry to hear about your mom. I was told that I had Placenta Privera,I had to go for an u/s every 2 weeks, it has moved out of the way on its own. If it had still been low they said I would need a c-section,but now I dont,I can have the baby on my own. I hope all turns out well for you,and again Im sorry to hear of your loss. mar14e -

Sunday, 26 Jul Sweetie, I am so sorry about your mom. And about the placenta I had a friend that had the low lying placenta and she did have to take it easy because she had bleeding but everything did turn out fine and the baby is healthy. Everything will turn out fine byrdi -
Thursday, 23 Jul hey there,
i am so sorry to hear about your mom. of course you know this, but if you need to talk, i'm here and i'm sure everyone else would say the same.
i too have a low lying placenta...it was diagnosed at 16 weeks and by 19 weeks had moved even lower. i have a follow up u/s on aug 10 but am not holding out hope that it's moved....but there is always a chance that everyone's could move and that's usually the case then you get this diagnosis, that for most women it moves on it's own. if it doesn't, you just have to be more cautious and a c-section would be necessary if it doesn't move by the end. we are on a no sex order by our dr due to it b/c mine is so low. your placenta must be 3cm from the opening of the uterus , and at last check mine was 1cm....i'm anxious to find out on the 10th but it is what it is.....
don't worry too much about this, it's scary to hear but usually is just fine.....
hugs

Thursday, 23 Jul I'm so sorry to hear about everything! This must be a really difficult time for you and I wish it could be easier. As far as the low lying placenta, I had the same thing at my 20 week ultrasound and they rechecked me at 24 weeks and luckily it had moved up into the safe zone. So there is a chance that it can correct itself. I hope that things start to get better for you. I'm so sorry for your loss. symanski -
Thursday, 23 Jul If your "low lying placenta" may mean the same thing that the doc's diagnosed me with... Placenta Privera. Not sure but if that is what it is... Ask your doctor and if so, comment me and we can start talking,,, I am a little nervous about this myself... As for your mom, I am very sorry to hear that your mom passed. I can't imagine your pain and if you need to talk, I am here... larryslady -
Thursday, 23 Jul Im SOOOOO sorry to hear about your mom.. My dad did the sam ething signed off and gave up.. It killed me. I can't say that time will heal all wounds because my dad died 12 years ago and it still hurts but. But when that baby comes you love it with allyour might and let them know that grandma could't be here with you but she loves you sooo much! Take care of yourself ok!
