Update time! 20 weeks

It has been about 5 weeks since my last post!  I left you all with us preparing for Hurricane Sandy.  We survived the stormJ  But I tell ya, we are lucky.  People had it so much worse.  We were out of power, heat and water for over a week.  We live on 14th Street, right next to where the con Ed power explosion was, pretty scary.  When the plant exploded there was a huge blue flash o light and a large boom that filed our apartment.

 We have a dog and taking her up and down 10 flights of stairs in a pitch-black stairwell 3-4 times a day was really tough on her.  It was really tough to carry her too.  We luckily found a hotel that takes dogs up on 49th and 1st Ave so we stayed there for bout 4 nights.  My husband works at NYU, Bellevue and the VA hospitals which were out of commission because of the storm. In fact, for the most part, they are still out of commission.  It was nice having DH around for about 2 weeks

What else have I done over the past month or so.. Oh yea, went to San Diego, CA to visit my family.  My brother and sister live out here with their families.  It was great to see their kids.  My sister and sister in law took me to get registered at Babies R Us.  So fun!  I got most of the essentials picked out.  I decided to also register at Amazon.com.  The one thing that I have not at all decided on and have plenty of time for is deciding on a crib.  I really want a white crib but I know that for a boy it is not a common to have white.  Anyhow, I am torn about that. 

On the pregnancy front I found out at my anatomy scan that I have Placenta Previa.  My placenta is completely covering my cervix.   The only thin I was told to refrain from is sex.  My next scan is actually tomorrow.  I’m pretty nervous.  I really do not want o be put on bed rest.  Say a little prayer Mr Placenta has started migrating north this winterJ
