It's the start of week 25. For some reason Tuesdays mark the beginning of each new week. Why Tuesdays? Ask our midwife. I read that the earliest an infant can be expected to survive is after week 24. In some ways that encourages me as insurance against any coming complications, but it also makes me worry about possible complications. Too much knowledge can make you a nervous wreck.
Hallie's placenta previa for example. It was picked up on our last ultrasound. A dangerous situation if you are ready to give birth-however, at this early date, it is very common and usually corrects itself. So are we worried about it? Sure. Is there anything we can do about it? No. All we can do is try to have the awareness without crossing into fear or stress. It's probably good practice for the rest of our child's life....
