We had another sonogram today (24 weeks) to check on a couple of things we found out at our 18 week appointment. When we went to find out what we were having, we also found out that our baby had what is called a Choroid Plexus Cyst on his brain, but in most cases these cysts go away on their on and have no effect on the baby. This freaked me out BIG time, but we were very hopeful and positive. Dr. Moses said not to worry but of course we did (well I did, JM told me all along he felt like everything would be okay). We also found out that my placenta was low (called marginal placenta previa) and that if it didn't resolve, or move up, that I would likely be put on bed rest, and definitely have a c-section. Well after many prayers, today's sonogram showed that the cyst had in fact gone away - Praise God! My placenta was still low, but had moved up a bit from last time. It is 0.5 centimeters from the cervix but needs to be 2-3 centimeters from the cervix before everything is considered "normal." I will have another sonogram in 4 weeks to check the placenta. All around, this was wonderful news to us! God is good! Here are a couple sonogram pics from today:


This is JM's favorite picture - the "boy" picture

  1. Hey...I had no idea there were a few difficulties that yall were dealing with. But I am SO glad that everything is looking good!! God is good! I'll continue to pray for you...and your placenta :) I had a c-section with Abby, and I'll have to have one with "baby brother." Don't get too stressed if that's what you end up having to do....they're really not bad at all! They're scheduled (so you can shave your legs, wash your hair, and be prepared), and they're so quick & basically pain FREE!!! But anyways...I love blogs, and I can't wait to start following yours!
