So I spent Saturday night in L&D...

..due to spotting and cramping. It was quite an event. That was the last place I expected to end up at this point. When they brought me into the room to be checked I had two screaming women in labor on either side of me. I felt bad for them..It was crazy. Anyway the baby is fine, thank god. Apparently my placenta is lying a bit low which could have been the cause. Other than that the doctor had no explanation, which I hate. I like having answers! Either way, the baby is fine and that is all that matters. Oh and the doctor slipped up while doing an ultrasound. "He" is doing just fine. 
Of course, the possibility that it could be a boy has me thrilled to no end. Right now though that is all it is though, a possibility. I think I'm going to wait until my 20 week u/s to buy stuff and tell. You never know!!

I am glad you and baby are ok!! How scary!
Scary! I'm glad you're okay. Stay rested and stress-free. (Easier said than done.)
And SO EXCITING about the possible gender slip! I hope you're not disappointed to find out. I don't know how you have the willpower to try to be surprised. I'm so happy for you!
Wow- I had the EXACT same thing happen with DD when I was 16 weeks. It was a looong day with no real answers besides the low-lying placenta (placenta previa). It corrected itself by my 20 week ultrasound, but I did end up having some unexplained bleeding when I was 22/23 weeks. DD was fine but they never found a reason for it. GL & hopefully this was just a small, albeit scary, bump in the road
Congrats on the possibility of a "He"
I hope you and the little one stay healthy throughout the rest of your pregnancy!
Thank you ladies!
I'm kind of hoping that it is a boy. I would be happy either way as long as I have a healthy baby, but if this one is a boy then I'm so done for awhile!! A girl and a boy.. that would complete us. For now.
