***Anyone who reads this and has kids, I think you should do it. It's a fun tag. And don't forget to post the baby picture at the top if you have one.

No Labor, I want to say lucky, but its kind of scary that you had the placenta thing, (I don't remember what its called sorry).
Oh, that is good information. Lots of stuff I had no idea about!
Crazy you had Placenta Previa. No labor sounds ok, but I am sure it wasn't fun to have a c-section. I think that you were the only one that did the tag. Let's get together and to walking soon. Keep in touch.
