10 weeks ~ Good news and not so good news

I think I will feel a little bit more comfortable with this pregnancy after today...sort of. We went to our 10 week checkup and my Dr. did a 2nd ultrasound since things were a little weird last time. We found our bean and a heartbeat right away this time, the little one was measuring 9weeks 6days so not too far off. Here is our u/s pic, if you know what your looking at, you can see a little monkey face there on the right side
The good news is, I will get an u/s at almost every appointment from now on, the bad news is it's because we have complete Placenta Previa. If you don't know exactly what that means, the placenta is fully covering the Cervix, if I were to go into labor and birth the placenta before the baby our little one would have no chance, so in that case a C-section is required. With partial Placenta previa, there is a very good chance as the Uterus grows it would move up and away from the cervix, but with complete Placenta previa the chances are lower. So for right now we are hoping and praying.
