Decisions, Decisions!

I got the results from my ultrasound yesterday. The placenta moved up! Hooray! When women do have "placenta previa" (low-laying placenta), they generally have to take it REALLY really easy, especially the last trimester, so as not to tear anything down there and cause preterm labor.

SO-Now that I know the good news, I feel good enough where it would be safe for me to fly. I know throughout most of this pregnancy, I was dead-set on having the baby out in PA, but my "mom" instincts must be kicking in. I'd feel much better if I had the baby back in Utah, where I'm going to be living, and not have to worry about flying out there later with the baby. The only downside is that the Dr said I can't fly after 32 weeks, which is in just a few short weeks. If everything works out smoothly, I will be leaving the 2nd week of February. It will be nice to have time to get everything in order at home before the baby comes.

I've really enjoyed being here, and know this is where I needed to be throughout these past months. Some days were just really rough for me, emotionally, and it helped to just have someone sit and watch TV with me. If not for me though, I've felt it was important I was here for my mom. With all that's gone on with my family this past year, especially the sudden loss of my Grandma, its been tough to deal with, so I'm glad I was here as a (sometimes) pleasant distraction. :)

Anywho, I'm ready to get this show on the road, as my mom would say.
