On Saturday night (last week) we had a little scare. At about 2 in the morning we rushed to the hospital because I started to bleed. The blood was not strong, nor very dark, but was enough to scare the heck out of us. After about 2 hours at the hospital they took my vitals, blood, blood pressure, and checked the baby. All were fine and strong. The source of the blood was unknown, but the on-call ER OB said it could be the start of a miscarriage. We were so worried. We stayed home from work on Sunday, and then Monday morning we called our OB. They changed our week 12 appointment to that day, and we came right in. The baby was absolutely fine, and our nerves were calmed. My placenta tore slightly away from my uterus, which was causing the bleeding. It was a tiny rip, so there was nothing to worry about. The placenta is completely intact, and the baby is measuring exactly what it should at this point. After a few days off from work, and lots of rest, everything is fine. I am so happy that our OB is so amazing, and funny. Dr. Seidel is the best! Our next appointment is on April 18th to hopefully find out the baby's gender. Jenn and I are always switching between "he" and "she", and "it". I would love to just call "it" by name, Little Kelly or Lucas!
