Placenta previa -- my mother went through this with me, so the fact that it appeared in this story was interesting to me, and definitely made me more interested in this soon-to-be-mother's agony. Motherhood is tough. But there are secrets here (one in particular) that is going to eat away at this mom. 

I was so tense when the baby was having trouble nursing that I couldn't even get comfortable! Phew. Again, motherhood is tough!!
