The last few weeks have been crazy with the holidays and everything so let me try to catch everyone up. As I last posted I started bleeding again on Dec 11th this continued until some time around Dec 29th or so. We spent many of those days at doctor’s appointments and getting ultrasounds. On our Dec 23rd ultrasound appointment it was discovered that I had a Subchorionic Hematoma (SCH). This basically means that I had a bit of blood gathering between the membranes of the placenta and my uterus. The blood usually does not interfere with the baby and most women continue to have a perfectly healthy pregnancy. In a few rare cases SCH can lead to preterm labor and placental abruption. My SCH was rather small so our doctor was not overly concerned and said that it would either bleed out or be reabsorbed by my body. Luckily (knock on wood) after bleeding for nearly 3 weeks the bleeding and spotting has stopped. We are hoping that it all bled out. Our next ultrasound appointment is Jan 12th, so we’ll see how things look then. Hoping for a very positive ultrasound
How far along: 14 weeks 2 days
Symptoms: Morning sickness still appears every now and then but nothing like before YAY! but it seems to be replaced by constant headaches and dizziness. Also I have a constant feeling of pressure and stretching in my pelvic area and very itchy breasts, probably due to them more than doubling in size. I started out at a 34d and have already out grown my new 34dd bras!
Total Weight Gain: Not sure, I haven’t weighed myself in a few weeks
Stretchmarks: No new ones
Sleep: I haven’t been sleeping too well due to discomfort, weird dreams, constantly needing to pee and getting hungry in the middle of the night
Best Moment This Week: Yang is really excited that my bump is starting to show
Movement: Not yet. but I’m looking forward to it
Gender: We’ve had an unofficial guess by the ultrasound tech but won’t know officially until Feb.
Labor Signs: Too early for that!
Belly Button: Still in.
What I Miss: Having the occasional glass of wine
What I am Looking Forward to: Our next ultrasound, finding out the gender. Yang is looking forward to getting the all clear for us to book our baby moon ( Our doc said I can’t fly until the SCH has cleared, due to the changes in air pressure it may cause more bleeding)
Also we are very happy that we are now in the second trimester!!!! We’re 6 weeks away from being half way through this pregnancy!! I hope everyone’s New Year is off to a great start ~Yin!

14 weeks 1 day
