Well, after a few hours of work yesterday I decided that a half day would be best. All the symptoms of the placenta previa & fibroid tumor are still there and seemed to worsen a bit as the day progressed. Nothing major, but enough for me to admit that I wasn't ready to come back full time. So I'll be working half days for now, well actually 5 hour days which technically is more than a half day, but you get the idea. My work is fine with it and my midwife thinks it's a great idea as long as I'm okay with it. I have the option of being totally out of work still, but I feel like a half day is totally do-able and takes some stress off me for sure.
The dogs are definitely happy with this decision. They have gotten spoiled having me here 24/7. Right now I am surrounded by all 5 dogs, all sound asleep, except for Beusch, but I think he'll be snoozing in no time.
Baby Boy is still doing great. We heard the heartbeat, very strong and healthy, at our appointment on Wednesday. He is still kicking away and I'm loving it. Our next doctor appointment is this coming Wednesday, but I don't think we'll have another ultrasound till 24 weeks. So probably no more cute baby pictures till then. I love the extra ultrasounds I have to admit!
Have a great weekend!

I'm glad that you're going to be able to give half days at work a try for a while, I hope you'll continue to be able to do that. I know it does really help ease some of your stress, anxiety, and stir-craziness. Yeah, definitely, getting all those extra ultrasounds is a nice perk for sure! It's nice that there's some benefit to all these complications you have to deal with!
