| 15-9-2008 - Pregnancy Updates |  My mood while writing this blog:happy |
My name is Brittany and my husband's name is Danny. We have been married for a little over two years. We're both very excited to be pregnant and hope this one sticks around. We have had two miscarriages, which completely devastated me, so I'm a little nervous with this one, I just want everything to be okay!
21 Dec 2007- I am starting to get so excited! This is our third pregnancy and I have a good feeling that everything will be okay with this one and we'll finally have our little one! I have been feeling unbelievably nauseous, mostly in the evenings. We go to the doc next week; hopefully we'll hear a heartbeat! I can't wait!
26 Dec 2007- We go to the doctor tomorrow for the first u/s. I can not wait!
27 Dec 2007- Well we went to the doctor this morning and he said everything looks good! The only thing is we are actually two weeks earlier than we thought! We go back in 2 weeks to find a heartbeat. Can't wait!
6 Jan 2008- (6w 6d) I don't think I have ever felt this sick in my life! I get about 3 hours of relief a day, where I can actually get up and do something. My husband just keeps telling me to remember what the end product will be. We go to the doc the day after tomorrow. Hope everything goes well!
8 Jan 2008- (7w 1d) We went to the doc this morning and did another u/s. I almost started crying when I heard the heartbeat. The doc said everything look perfect and there is only about a 10% chance I could miscarry this time. WHAT A RELIEF! I am so excited! They gave me some medicine because I have been so sick and I'm already feeling better. It's funny because feeling so sick for the last 3 weeks all seems worth it now that I got to hear the heartbeat. Next appointment is in 5 weeks, it seems like forever from now!
23 Jan 2008 - (9 w 2 d) Just thought I would do a quick update on here. So I'm still pregnant, which is a big deal for me. We have never been this far into a pregnancy, so it's an amazing thing. It still seems like forever until we go to the doctor again (3 more weeks), but I know the baby is fine because it's making me sicker than ever! Hope all is going well for everyone else!
3 Feb 2008 - (10w 6d) Well, I'm sitting here with my husband, watching the superbowl and obviously I'm bored, so I thought I would write. We go to the doctor next Tuesday for our 12 week appointment. I can not wait to see our little baby. My morning sickness has yet to let up at all. Even with medication, I can barely keep anything down. Isn't it supposed to be getting better at this point? I feel like it's getting worse! I just want to eat something! It's really getting frustrating.
14 Feb 2008 (12w 3d) - Happy Valentine's Day to all!!! Well we ended up going to the doctor a little early because I've been so sick. I've lost about 5 pounds so they switched me to a different medication. I don't know if the medicine is working or if I'm starting to get over the morning sickness, but I'm starting to feel so much better, it's great! Our appointment went great! The doctor couldn't get a heartbeat with the doppler thing so he went ahead and did an ultrasound. It's the most amazing thing; our little bean actually looks like a human! Its little arms were up in its face, SO CUTE! We go back to the doctor in about 3 weeks! Can't wait!
4 Mar 2008 (15w 1d) - Well, we went to the doctor today. They didn't do an ultrasound, but I did get to hear the baby's heartbeat. We could also hear the baby moving around, A LOT! The doctor said it sounds like the baby is very active in there and it shouldn't be much longer until I can start feeling it. I go back in five weeks and we're doing an ultrasound to see if we're having a boy or a girl. I have a feeling that we're having a boy. If we go and he tells us it's a girl, I think I would faint. I just feel so certain that it's a boy, I don't know why. Anybody else have that feeling? I really don't care one way or the other so we'll just have to see. They weighed me and I lost another 4 pounds, so that puts me at loosing 9 pounds so far this pregnancy (isn't morning sickness great)! I'm finally starting to feel more like myself, so hopefully my next appointment I won't have any more loss. Here's to eating nothing but cheesecake for the next 5 weeks! :)
18 Mar 2008 (17w 1d) - I can finally feel the baby moving. It's the greatest feeling! I was sitting on the couch last night and it wouldn't stop moving. I'm finally starting to feel better. Every now and again I get sick, but for the most part I feel great. I can finally eat; I never thought I would appreciate food this much! Only three weeks till we do back to the doctor!
1 Apr 2008 (19w 1d) - So one more week till we find out what we're having! This week is going to just drag by! I can't wait. I know I said I think it's a boy, but lately I just don't know. I think I'm just torn on what I WANT to have, so it's messing with what I feel like we're having. One more week and we'll know for sure!
8 Apr 2008 (20w 1d) - Well we went to the doctor today and found out that we are having a little GIRL! I'm so excited! I think my husband is in a little bit of a shock right now, he really wanted his boy. Oh well, maybe next time. Everything looked good with the baby. She weighs a whole 13oz. She was being stubborn and lying on her tummy, so we couldn't get a good face shot. Stubborn little thing! I'm so excited! We go back in 4 weeks!
6 May 2008 (24w 1d) - Went to the doctor today! Baby is doing great. She had a strong heartbeat and was moving around. The doctor got after me for not gaining enough weight. I've gained back all the weight that I lost at the beginning plus a couple, so I don't know what the problem is. He told me that I need to eat more, but I don't really want to. I'm not starving myself by any means but I don't want to overeat. If everything is okay with the baby, I don't see why it's so important for me to gain so much weight!
20 May 2008 (26w 1d)- Well, I had to make an emergency visit to the doctor yesterday. Sunday night I started spotting and Monday morning I was still spotting, so they had me come in to make sure everything was okay. They checked to make sure I wasn't dialating and that the baby wasn't in distress. In the end, Katelyn is doing just fine and so am I. I was told that I need to slow down and take it easy. I guess I've been doing too much. It's so hard for me to have people do things for me, I just have to remember that I'm doing it for her. I'm just glad she is okay.
3 June 2008 (28w 1d)- Went to the doctor today. Katelyn sounded like she was doing just fine. She had a heart rate of 147 and was moving all over the place! I had to do my gestational diabetes test. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was really nervous about drinking the stuff. I'll know by tomorrow if I have to do anything further with it or if I'm okay (hoping for the later). We go back in 4 weeks for another ultrasound, I can't wait to see her again!
4 June 2008 (28w 2d)- I just got a call from my doctor's office and I passed my glucose test! Yea! I was really worried about it for some reason. I am however slightly anemic, so I now get to take iron. What a relief, I'd much rather take the iron than have to deal with gestational diabetes!
2 July 2008 (32w 2d)- Went to the doctor yesterday. We got to hear Katelyn's heartbeat. It started out slower and then something excited her and it jumped up to 145. Maybe she knew we were listening! :) Doctor said everything is looking good and I'm measuring just fine. We go back in 3 weeks. I can't believe she will be here in less than 2 months. I can't wait!
24 July 2008 (35w 3d)- I went to the doctor on Tuesday. Katelyn's heart rate was good, around 137. The doctor was joking that she's got a boy heart rate. He said maybe he was wrong when he told us we were having a girl! :) We had two ultrasounds and both times she was a girl, so I'm not too worried! He checked me and I'm not dilated or effaced. Good news is she is head down. I could have told him that though, she likes to kick right into my ribs and my right side! It's so weird to think she's going to be here before I know it! Not much longer now and I finally get to meet the little person who's been kicking me! We go back to the doctor in 2 weeks.
5 August 2008 (37w 1d)- WOO HOO! Went to the doctor and I'm 1cm dialated and 50% effaced! Thank heavens! I think I would have cried if I was nothing again! Katelyn's heartbeat was good and everything is going well. Not much longer until she's here! It's like waiting for Christmas, it's killing me! My bloodpressure was back down to normal. Last time it was high, but I'm good now. I'm now going to the doctor every week.
12 August 2008 (38w 1d)- Went to the doctor this morning. I'm 1 1/2 cm dialated. He said she hasn't dropped yet, which is kind of depressing me! I want her out and I feel like it's never going to happen! We asked the doctor about inducing but he said they wont induce first time moms until after their due date, unless something is wrong. Dang it! I just want her out!
26 August 2008 (40w 1d)- Well we finally have a date to be induced. We go in 2 Sept at 6:00am. Hopefully Katelyn will decide to show up earlier than that, but so far it doesn't seem like her style. The doctor checked me today and I'm haven't dialated anymore. Atleast we have a date now, it's a little bit of a relief!
28 August 2008- Well no induction date needed! Right after I made my last entery my water broke! Katelyn is finally here!
