What happens to a debtor’s credit report regarding a post-bankruptcy foreclosure?

I filed bankruptcy and it was discharged about 1 1/2 years ago. I included the house; it wasn’t reaffirmed. I will not make any money on the sale so I stopped payments to the lender; it is foreclosing on the house. When the judge orders a judgment to foreclose, will there be a judgment placed on my credit report in addition to the bankruptcy, or will the courts not to contact the credit bureaus because this house was already included in the bankruptcy?
