5/23/08 Only 6 more days until my 1st doctor appointment! i can't wait, cause i'm starting to think i might be futher along than i think! ryan hopefully gets to go with me! yay

06/23/08 We had our first u/s friday:) they moved me back a week, but i think they're wrong and so does eveyone else that's seen my pictures, the baby's development looks more like 10 weeks, we saw it's little hands and feet, it was moving around...ALOT!!!! we got tons of pictures too! the doc said she never takes that many but the baby was just being SO photogenic..lol! ryan thinks he was dancing! it's 6.21cm and it's heartbeat was 173...i know i know, it's probably a girl, but i really want a boy so i'm gonna pretend it's cause i drank tea that morning!

07/09/08 Well my next appointment is thursday the 17th. 3 days before my wedding. yeah that's right the wedding is almost here, time is going by fast lately!!! i think my mom might go with me to this appointment just cause she doesn't live here and i think she would like to hear the babies heartbeat! well me and ryan are getting REALLY excited about the wedding..i'm gonna have a husband! yay (i'm smiling and can't stop)

7/10/08 MY MOM IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE IN TOWN FOR MY APPOINTMENT NEXT THURSDAY...SO I THOUGHT I WOULD CALL MY DOC AND SEE IF IT IS POSSIABLE TO GET ANOTHER SCAN SINCE MY MOM IS GOING WITH ME AND SHE DOESNT LIVE HERE. AND GUESS WHAT MY DOC ACTUALLY SAID YES!! I'M SO EXCITED!! SO RYAN AND MY MOM ARE GOING WITH ME AND WE GET TO SEE THE BABY AGAIN!!! YAY!!!

7/31/08 I know i need to update some here! well the wedding is over, i'm a married woman! and couldn't be happier! we didn't really have a big honeymoon, went to ohio for a day, we went king's island there andwe went camping for the night! we went to the children's museum in indy (which is the largest in the U.S.) i didn't know that. we spent a few days just relaxing at the house..oh our wedding night we did go to a hotel, it had theme rooms. our's was "norhtern lights" our bedroom was in an igloo, the jaquzzi tub was shaped like an iceburg, the bed was octogon shaped...lol!! it was AWESOME!!! the u/s before the wedding with my mom and ryan was great too! the baby is getting big, and the heartbeat was 142bpm..i like that! lol mom is going to come stay with me for a few months when i have the baby to help me out..yay!! that will be a big help! i guess now that the wedding is over it's time to start buying baby stuff. i wouldn't buy anything until i wa in my 2nd trimester...which i am now. that in itself makes me happy cause i already feel like i do have more energy! i have a really hard time sleeping at night, and have been haveing alot of weird, very vivid dreams. i never remembered my dream until now...it's freaking me out! well i think that's enought updating for now...

AUG. 27th, 2008

I'm getting anxious and excited!!! we have our BIG ultrasound next thursday the 4th of september!! we get to find out what our little seed is! yay. of course my husband is coming with me, he has been ready for this appointment for awhile now! we are also moving that weekend to a cheaper duplex, $150 cheaper a month, but with the same amount of room (almost), and actually a nicer place! there is a sky light in the living room, the ceiling is vaulted. That little bit of savings is gonna help us out alot!! anyone live around me getting rid of furniture should let me know ; ) we need a dresser and a washer mainly, but another end table or coffee table would be nice..lol!

march 12th,2009

today is my first day back at work. Kaitlynn brooke was born jan 12th. 20hrs after my water broke, with three hours of pushing! we spent a week in the NICU due to possiable infection since my water broke so early! btw i hated the nurses in the NICU, we fought almost every day! but i was relieved when i finally got to bring her home!

ange an ebb - Saturday, 2 August
hey, where are the wedding pics? how was your big day? i hope it was everything you wished it would be. wedding talk in this house is starting (from his mother initially) and i am not in that place just yet so good for you!!!

what names have you picked out?


BoyStruckX2 - Friday, 1 August
I went through that when I was pregnant with my first. I would have to say though it was nice sometimes cause I was just to tired for anyone to bother me...lol :)


BoyStruckX2 - Wednesday, 30 July
That sounds like fun to me. I bet you all had a blast. And you didn't have to worry about getting your period on your honeymoon....LOL


ange an ebb - Wednesday, 30 July
that's a bummer re 6 weeks maternity!!
i am feeling great, just enjoying being lazy and on holiday.
unlike you, i am hoping for a little girl, i lost my mom 18 months ago, and i kinda crave the mother daughter relationship. but i would be happy with a little boy too! i only hope that that baby is healthy. i have two names for a girl at the moment, Savannah and Amelia. have a fav, but i think i will decide for sure when i meet baby. for a boy, Sean is leading a very long list lol we'll see!?!?!


mom o 4 girls! - Tuesday, 29 July
That's GREAT! Yeah Springfield is nice. I live abot 30 miles from Columbia. Where did you all go on your honeymoon?


BoyStruckX2 - Tuesday, 29 July
Im glad your mom is excited. Unfortunatly with Mason my mom was less that excited..more like disappointed. She kicked me out of the house and I literally had to drag her to the ultrasound at 28 weeks. She didn't come around until she held him the day he was born. Then everything changed. Im so happy for that. We are now closer than ever.
How was your honeymoon? Where did you go?
Masons dad....I just dont know about him...eh...


Englandgirl - Saturday, 19 July
Have a fab day tomorrow at your wedding - i'll be thinking about you! Make sure you treat yourself to a glass of champagne!!! CONGRATULATIONS x.


BoyStruckX2 - Saturday, 19 July
I love that name its so cute! And truthfully I know NO ONE with that name :) That heartbeat does sound boyish for 13 weeks...but not always :) I had my first scan at 13 weeks and they told me the baby was 3 inches long :) He had his arms behind his head and his ankles crossed--precious! How did your mom react??


ange an ebb - Friday, 18 July
wow, britain is leading the way in something!!!! are you sure that's all you get, in uk we get full pay for only 6 weeks, then a reduced rate, topped up with credits from the government. i cant believe that's all you get.


ange an ebb - Friday, 18 July
in the UK we can take 12 months maternity leave, at the moment i am intending on taking 6 months and then going back on reduced hours if available. i don't know how i will feel when baby comes along, but it is nice to know i have the choice. what about you, you are very busy, can you imagine staying home all the time?


BoyStruckX2 - Friday, 18 July
yea you can private message me goofball. Instead of hitting send...hit...send private :) Why ya gonna tell me the names :) Ellen is not awful, but when I was younger kids used to make fun of it because of Ellen G. lol


mom o 4 girls! - Thursday, 17 July
I know the feeling. When my two oldest were little my mom was alive, so I had the greatest babysitter! But my mom was killed in a car accident, and now there is really no one that I trust either. That would be great if you could find out this early!!!! I had one u/s at 7 weeks and I don't think I get another until 20 weeks. My sister is 16 weeks. She is due on New Year's Day!


ange an ebb - Thursday, 17 July
yes, i will do that too, i have hear of nipple confusion, and will be scared incase that happens. i know that i couldn't possibly do all the feeding myself for a two/three month period though. i guess timing will be everything.


mom o 4 girls! - Thursday, 17 July
Wow, you are busy! If you want to stay at home I really hope it works out for you. Sometimes it does just because the cost of good childcare is so expensive! My little sister is pregnant too, and will be finding out what she is having in a couple of weeks. I am jealous!


BoyStruckX2 - Wednesday, 16 July
My middle name is Ellen ewww... i don't like it :) I bet your names will be awesome!


ange an ebb - Wednesday, 16 July
breast as long as possible. then i will pump, i think. quite daunting, every 2 -3 hours i believe in the start


ange an ebb - Wednesday, 16 July
yes they do, search for real nappies
