My little boy has fully potty trained by january first 2011 and didn`t start until christmas that`s my boy


Ayden is our miracle baby all the way through....When I got pregnant with him I started bleeding right away once I found out, and the Dr. kept telling me that I was going to probably miscarry and that there was nothing that they could do for me.

So then comes 12 weeks into the pregnancy and well now the bleeding was really bad big clots and all, i thought for sure I lost him, So I called my Dr. and he told me to come into the ER I did, and they took me for an ultrasound, and when the Dr. saw me finally once I was placed on the labor and delivery floor of the hospital, he told me that I wasn't allowed to eat nor drink anything that the only thing I was allowed was ice chips and thats all. I asked him why with tears in my eyes.

He told me that the baby had a good strong heartbeat, although the baby was seperated from my uterus 3/4's of the way and only a tiny tiny little hair of the placenta was holding on yet, and he said you are going to loose this baby during the night and when it lets go you are going to hemridge or how ever it is spelled, I lost it in tears and was shaking and all, I didn't want to loose my baby...... He told me that if I started to bleed even more that they were going to rush me into emergency surgery and may wind up having to do a hyterectomy as well, well this really scared me not only was I going to loose my baby, but ever having a chance of having another one would be done......

So when morning came I woke up with them coming in and taking my blood pressure and temp. and then they told me that the Dr. would be coming in soon, and before they left the room they checked my pad to see how the bleeding was doing....and the nurse said it was just browning now......I was comfused with this couldn't wait till the Dr. came in to see weather I lost the baby without bleeding badly or if everything was still ok....

So finally the Dr. came into the room and he asked me how come I didn't get a call last night?......i said I don't know I guess the bleeding was really bad, he asked me how it was now....and I told him that it was just browning now.....he then told me that he was going to send me down for an ultrasound again to see what was going on because I should of lost this baby through the night and started to bleed badly....and so on down I went.....

I was so glad to see the baby's heartbeat on the screen......big relief.......When I got taken back upstairs the Dr. came back in and said well I don't know how this happened but this baby what ever sex it is is a sheer mircle baby and I would hope that you give him or her a mircle baby name, because the placenta didn't get any worse but it didn't get any better either....

But now he wanted to take blood work to see if I had this clood clotting disorder though called throbophilia.......but the blood work would take three weeks to come back.....So they took the blood and I waited and waited and in the mean time things were getting better with me because he started me on meds to comtrol this disorder just in case it was in fact what I had......and sure enough it was and that was the cause of the baby almost being lost, I got bad blood clots that seperated the placenta from the uterus and in return almost made me loose something so close and may of never had another chance....so thank goodness for this cause he is with us today.....

but because of this seperation of the placenta and stuff at 34 weeks I started bleeding again, and the doctor told me that it was the placenta seperating again. And that if I went into labor they weren't going to stop it, and at 35 weeks he was born in the NICU for 4 days and then home, and he has been great all the way up to a year old.....which if you read my blogs you will see what happened to him after that he is ok but a lot of medical problems all of a sudden...

Colby-James`s birthstory

I had came into the hospital here for a planned induction was to be up on the L&D floor by 6:30am. Dr. never came into my room until around 7:30am. and he had the nurses start my I.V fluids and went out to do a short proceedure on someone else in surgery, and said he would be right back to break my water, and then he would allow me to get my epidoral then right away too, So I was happy to hear that one.....So he came back around 8am. and broke my water and started the pitocin on me as well then and within minutes the epidural was started to pain relief before it even started.....the dr. told me that he was going to plan on the nurse delivering our son because he knew I was going to go fast and very fast.....he said that it would only take him 1 minute and 15 secs. to get from the office to here, but still he thought that he wouldn`t make it.....but he was called at 9:50 about am. and was told he was needed in room 2 NOW!!!! and they hung up and boom the nurses told me to go ahead and start pushing and I didn`t hesistate with that the pressure was so bad.....and by the time the Dr. got here his head was already out on the bed, and I was pushing away to get him out fast I couldn`t bare the pain much longer......So without further ado he was out and crying......I tore just a tid bit but dr said not enough to worry about putting anything down there at all....So thats good, but because of how fast our son was born he got brused along his forhead and nose, they said it wouldn`t last long though, other than that he is breastfeeding really good he`s a little sleepy probably from the epidoral but he will over come that it was a long day for the both of us......

Caleb-Scott-Thomas`s birthstory

well this is an interesting one I must say first of all. I called my dr. the tuesday of the week that I gave birth because I was having contractions but they werent timely though, but they did hurt a lot though, and I was bleeding off and on slightly, So they had me come in as soon as possible and I did, he checked me and said that i was already 2-3 cm`s already and that he was afraid to tell me but I was not going to be pregnant for much longer, I was hurt by that I didnt want to hear that at all. I asked him for something to stop the contractions and he told me that their was nothing to stop my contractions, well for one I knew he was lieing right there I checked out of the dr`s appt. and went out and got into my truck with my husband and pulled my breathine out of my purse and took 2 pills to stop the contractions, and it did so i continued with this every 4 to 6 hours taking 2 pills at a time to stop contractions all the way up till wed. night when they started back up and so I called the dr. and he told me to come into the hospital and get checked out in labor and delivery just to make sure so my husband and I went, well needless to say I threw all the dr`s and the nurses for a loop because they couldnt understand as to how I was dialating and progressing with my labor with untimely contractions not a one of them was timely at all some were 3 mins. others were 22 mins. and so on, but nothing showing pattern at all, and so this went on and on and finally when I hit 6 cm`s at I think it was 6am. they called the dr. to come in well that was a big big mess right there now the contractions were so painful it wasnt funny but still no pattern to them at all, and yet I was still dialating, anyways I wound up giving birth to him at 8:58am. on thursday July 1st. 2010 to a baby boy that weighed 5lbs. even and 19 1/2 inches long named Caleb Scott

Elijah-Colton-Thomas`s birthstory

I had a planned induction date set already for the 7th of october which was the day that he was born I was to arrive at the hospital at 8am. and when I got there they had decided after I spoke to the dr. and all that they would get my iv bag of fluids started and then all my blood work drawn and such and my epidoral in and working really good before they started the induction so I got all that done, and the epidural made me so numb that I felt nothing what so ever and I couldnt even lift my legs on my own they were dead limbs on my body lol.....but anyways towards the end of the labor right before i gave birth I started to have a really bad pinching nerve feeling on my left side and then all the pain came back on my entire left side of the body I could move my leg and all, so they called for more meds to be put into the epidural and when they put that large bullose into me omg I couldnt walk even after birth and all till 4 am. the next morning, but I am so glad that I got the epidural though because had I not of I would of had back labor and front labor, as well as painful hips and nerves in both the front and back of my body, but my body even 4 days after birth is still suffering with recovering from pain from giving birth although I didnt feel it my pain body still indured it and so I am recovering from it all now....each day gets better and better though......We had decided to call our baby boy ELIJAH COLTON THOMAS in rememberance of my son that I had lost to SIDS back in 1997 ELIJAH is an angel of innocence and the meaning of the name is believed to have created the tree of life. Guardian of all newborn children and those who die at a young age......which because of the meaning and such we decided to give him that name as a first name because we wanted to have an angel over my sons name that I lost Colton.......so as you have already guessed by now colton was the name of my son that I had lost so suddenly back in 1997 to SIDS.......so thats the birth story of our son that is new to our family and hes such a blessing to our family and carrys such a special name that will have a special place in our hearts and our souls may god bless him from the day he was concieved and all the way till god decides its his time, please make that a 100 and something.....lol.......

and to those of you that are wondering we are probably gonna be trying again for our little baby girl, but not anytime soon.....lol.....we will keep everyone posted on our mission to our little girl maybe someday.....
