Just Another Day

So the past few days have been a little off. I have been having some cramping and lower back pain on top of having the dreaded morning sickness. I am sure it is normal it just scares me a bit since we are not sure what all is going on. I have had no bleeding though so that is a good sign. I have been doing alot of swimming with my son and niece. Ohhhh and I love my maintenance man here at my apartments. Mr. B-Rad is the greatest. He lowered the temperature in the hot tub so I would be able to get in it. It was so nice to be able to sit in a warm hot tub and stay in longer then just a few seconds. I looked it up on line about hot tubs and they say pregnant women can get in hot tubs just don't stay in longer then 10 minutes and if you stop sweating then you need to get out. I always feel nervous about putting my whole body in so I normally just soak my feet and legs. Yesterday was my husbands birthday !!! He is now officially 27 yrs old. I love my Old Man!!!! HaHaHaHa.... So only about 6 more days until my ultrasound. I can't wait... I will be taking another picture today to post up on my next blog but for now it is time to clean house.

Morning Sickness Deluxe

That's right Morning Sickness Deluxe which means I have it non-stop. When I wake up in the morning, mid conversation, when I go to bed and even when I am sleeping. Yesterday and today has been a little better but man ol man. I did not have it this bad with my first (Caleb). I will be driving on the highway and will have my face in a sick bag. If it wasn't for the sick bags I really don't know what I would do. I was for awhile just taking a little trash can around with me. HaHaHa Now is that bad or what. At least with the sick bags I can put them in my purse and then trash them without having to walk around with a trash can every where I go. If you want to know more about these nifty little bags you can check them out at SickSaver These definitely come in handy and they even have a cool little stick figure guy on the front barfing. HaHaHa Now how cool is that!!!! I just feel sorry for my husband, he is all like is every pregnancy like this? "No honey not all of them". Hopefully I wont be like this my whole pregnancy. That would be just great !!

Sonogram Venture

It was a little nerve wracking and i kinda wish we would have waited or something. We went and the technician did a sonogram but couldn't really see anything. Then she was all like That looks like a mass... I'm like WHAT!!!!!! So I told her that I have had an ovarian pregnancy before so she starts saying that it is very possible I am having another. So my heart just kinda breaks. She said lets do a Ultrasound just in case cause I don't want to send you off with something like that and it not get treated. So we do the ultrasound and she says well the mass was probably just a shadow. Then we saw the Sac but it was really small and she says well I don't see a baby but it is probably to early. At this point I am just so irritated and not knowing what to think. She measures the sac and it measures out to 5 weeks and 3 days. So I am just barley pregnant and she wants me to come back on the 5th of August to have another to be safe and make sure I am still pregnant. As soon as I get done with another Ultrasound on the 5th I am heading straight over for my Midwife appointment. I just know everything will be okay. I am just a little thrown back.

I am Due March 21, 2009

5 weeks 4 days Pregnant
241 days until my due date

35 weeks to go


Midwife It Is !!!!

Go Me !!!!! Yes I am being very brave and I know I can do it. My last pregnancy ended up with a very unwanted emergency C-Section but desperate measures call for desperate things. Caleb my 4 yr old was already causing me headaches before he was even here. His umbilical cord had a knot in it so his heart rate kept dropping. So Back to the Midwife thing. I want a VBAC and I can't find any doctors that will allow it just to save their butts. Midwives do them all the time and they are just as safe as having another C-Section. There is risk with everything you do. So the only thing I am not really looking forward to is all the pain but I know I can get past it. I have my first appointment on August 5th, 2008. I am so excited. They are really nice and compassionate. One of the midwives told me about free sonograms from the Midland College. I went yesterday but that is for the next blog. I don't want these to be too darn long.

The Beginning

We found out we we're pregnant on July 11, 2008 around 3:00 in the afternoon. We were super excited. This is going to be our second child but first one together. My husband is not our first son's biological father even though he swears of sneaking into my house about 4 years ago and getting me pregnant. HaHaHa We told everyone right away. My husband Chris was calling anyone he could think of just to have them listen to his exciting news and I was calling our family members to hear them hoot and holler about how wonderful this was and it could not come at a better time. It still wasn't very real to us yet, well a bit more for me then my husband. He insisted on taking two extra pregnancy test to be for sure. Like the other ones would lie or something. MEN !!!! We told our son Caleb who is 4 that there was a baby inside mommy's tummy and his reaction was priceless. He say's "Where in the World Did it Come From?" I told him God gave it to us. Later on in the day I was talking to my husband and I was saying how babies are like aliens or the body snatchers. They live in your body taking everything from you! Like parasites. We were laughing when our son came up to us again and was like "Mom you have an Alien in your tummy, WOW." Behold The Beginning !!!!
