Ultrasound!!!!!/ placenta previa

I was sooooo nervous all day yesterday. Why? I don't know. It's my 4th baby! I should be use to this!

I was nervous the tech was gonna slip the gender. I was nervous there'd be no heart beat. I was nervous something would be wrong, or baby wouldn't cooperate. 

I won't know if baby is all well until the dr tells me, because she isn't allowed to say anything, but I'm sure he/she is.  ***UPDATE!!!!! Kaiser just called and told me I have placenta Previa!! :( Please be in prayer for me and the baby.  The placenta is at the opening of my cervix. Pray it will move up. ***

I have to try* to rest. How with 3 boys? Not on bed rest though, thank God.  If the placenta tears the baby is in danger.  I am sure it will move and all will be okay.  But I would appreciate prayers.

At the end she said "ok I'm going to do the gender now." She knew not to slip what it is. Then she said, "I think I know..." Then after few mins of looking more, she said "ok ill go get your husband." {he couldn't be in the room till the end :(} 

She then showed us the baby on the screen, the heart beat, head, profile, hands, and even the foot :) She was super cautious to not show privates! 

At the end she wrote it down on a piece of paper, folded it four times, then put it in an envelope, then stapled it shut. Lol. 

I dialed my sisters number and gave the phone to the tech and we went out of the room. She told my sister. Then brought me my phone. 

I can't believe I forgot to ask, "How sure are you on the gender?" But my sister says she sounded sure. 

I told my sister not to call me until after the party. Lol. I CAN'T BELIEVE she knows and I don't!! I have the envelope. Sending to our friend who is a baker, who is making the cake for us. 

Yes. I'm DYING. 

Dying. 

When we got in the car and I really looked at the pictures she printed I thought, "Oh my goodness! It's a boy!" You can see why I thought that! What is that at the bottom abdomen area?! 

But a few of my friends all said, that's not a boy part, it's too big, you can't tell from that angle, and its the umbilical cord. 

I'm still assuming the baby is a boy. We make boys, that's what we do. Lol. I'm totally happy with that. Reece will have a best friend and we will have another one for our football team :) 4 boys would be awesome. But truth: I do want a girl! I've wrote all this before. I honestly and happy either way. I want one of each :) 

Oh yeah, it's just one baby!! Lol. 10 days until the reveal party. I can't wait to cut that cake!!! 

I'm feeling so blessed! And thankful for my amazing family! 

This morning I dragged all the boys to Target to look for another maternity dress. Found one for $20. Score. I'm feeling very fat so I have been wanting pretty clothes to hide in. We came home and the boys swam in the kiddie pool and I tanned. If you can't tone it, tan it! :)

I apologize in advance for this post being a whine fest.
Ultrasound showed LOTS of BIG gallstones. He said, pain will continue as long as I have my gallbladder, stones are too big to dissolve, and when my gallbladder contracts [which is every time I eat] the stones make it impossible for it to work. AKA- pain.
I did some research online and I read a lot of women have them, and are going through the same thing as me. They are all just hoping to get to 32 weeks so they know their baby will be okay. Because if we decide to do surgery while pregnant, it has to be during the 2nd trimester. But if we try to wait until after pregnancy and something happens in the 3rd trimester and they have to do surgery, it could cause pre-term labor and a baby only has %90 chance to live at birth of 32 weeks, so any less than that is dangerous.
I really need to just rely on God. He can heal me, and keep my baby safe. I see OBGYN Wednesday, and the surgeon that day, so hopefully we will have a plan after that. I would lie if I said I wasn't scared. I am not feeling well even now, and I still have 5 more months to go.
PS Web said gallstones get worse in 3rd trimester.
Would really appreciate prayer for me and baby.
PSS I was able to see my little blessing on the ultrasound, doing well growing and strong. Me? Not so much. As long as the baby is healthy.
