He said the baby looked good in the ultrasound.
He did say that there was a bruise on the placenta......apparently it is where the placenta pulls away from the uterine wall (in this case about 3 cm by 4 cm) and has some bleeding. However, this was apparently present on the ultrasound 3 weeks ago (which neither I or my Dr. was aware of) and it hasn't changed since then.
The cervix was closed and had gotten longer...a good thing.
As to the fluid level, the radiologist made no mention of it, so Dr. has to call the radiologist to find out more about that.
He did tell me no more 12 hour shifts and did say if I had more problems, he might take me off work, but did not mention bed rest. Yea!!
He told me to take it easy this week (yea, right!!) and he would see me in a week.

Try to take it easy as much as possible...I know it will be hard...at the very least you can use that as an excuse to get out of doing stuff you don't want to do.
