~~~~It's a GIRL!!!~~~~
Congratulations
to everyone expecting. We are currently expecting our 5th child. We had
some trouble with miscarriages last year so we are cautiously
optimistic about this pregnancy. Here's to a happy and healthy 9 months!

March 6th
I had my first appointment with my OB today. All my blood work from my 8 week nurse appointment came back perfectly fine. I was so relieved that the doctor was able to find a heartbeat!!! 169 BPM!!! We talked about different prenatal testing that she would like me to do. I agreed to the new Ultrascreen test for sure. The next test would be the AFP followed up by a level II ultrasound. After some research I discovered that the AFP is the same thing as the triple marker test so I plan to discuss this with her at my next appointment since I don't want the triple marker test done due to the high false-positive rate. Appointments have been made for the Ultrascreen, which involves a blood test followed up by a detailed ultrasound. The blood test will be March 10th and the ultrasound on March 25th. My level II ultrasound has also been scheduled for May 6th.

Freak-out day! Had some spotting yesterday so I headed into the doctor's office for her to check on the baby's heartbeat. I was relieved to hear it still beating strong at 162BPM. I recorded the sound on my MP3 player. Here's the only way I figured out to be able to share it:

Ultrascreen Day!
Katie, Ashley, Ryan and my husband came with me to the ultrasound today. Julia didn't want to ruin her perfect attendance record at school so she opted to go to school instead...crazy girl! We were AMAZED at how developed the baby is already! The doctor was very patient and took his time to show us everything we wanted to see. His preliminary assessment is that we are having another little girl, but he makes no guarantees till after our 19 week ultrasound on May 6th! Everything looked PERFECT! Our risk for Downs or other Trisomy disorders was lowered based on this test. The little heart was pounding away at 153BPM. Baby was measuring a little big too, 13 weeks 5 days instead of 13 weeks 1 day. I have big babies so that doesn't surprise me! "She" looks beautiful! Here are some pics:

Another great appointment! Not much exciting to talk about today. Baby's heart is 155BPM. We could hear the little one moving around so that was pretty cool. The doctor asked what I had decided about the AFP. I said I'd rather not, she was fine with that decision! We're still set with the next detailed ultrasound on May 6th. We'll know gender for sure that day.

Our next ultrasound has been moved from May 6th to May 1st!

It's a GIRL!!! We had our ultrasound today. Everything looks great! Baby was moving around like crazy. They estimate that she is about 9 inches long and weighs about 10 ounces. Heart rate was 155 today.

22 week check-up. After nearly an hour of waiting the doctor finally came in to see me. Baby sounded good...heart rate was 135 today. She confirmed that everything from my last ultrasound looked great. She told me that I'll have 2 more 4-week appointments...so June 26th and July 24th...and then I go to 2-week appointments. It's flying by! I signed consent for my tubal and we're going to plan to have it done right after the birth if things work out with timing. If that doesn't work out then I'll go in a couple of weeks after for the procedure.

LOL I don't know, they told me to take another HPT. I am so tired of them now!! always Negative! I have not had AF seen May 17th.!

Yeah i am lucky to be able to get a 4D ultrasound.. My hubby is good to me lol.. it's costing us a fortune at a private gallery. We are having to travel almost 3 hours to the studio as we live in the country. Theres nothing like it around us.. they are rare to find!! But me and my fiance think its sooo worth it.. we cant wait!!

95 days left. YAY!

Wow, that's pretty sad even for back then that your parents didn't encourage you to to to college. I was always pushed, and my sister chose to marry right out of grade 12, but our parents weren't happy about it.
I hope our kids can go to college, and I fully expect the older 3 to go. Jess doesn't seem very good at school, so not sure what her fate will be, but she's only in year 6 right now, so there's time to worry about that. Yeah, it's about giving them options.
Anyway, hope you have a good day. Our Winter holidays start today - the kids get 2 weeks off school.

Hi there! I just went to visit your page... your kids are adorable!! Bella will be my daughter's middle name after my beloved grandmother. Yeah, it does seem to be going faster than I thought it would, but mostly cause I have so much to do before she gets here and I can't seem to get anything done LOL!! Someone in there comments said your doc hinted you were too old for another one... good thing I didn't have him/her for my doc... I'll be turning 41 right around the time she's due (your due date is my birthday). Thanks for the compliments re:henna tattoo. It took about 45 minutes and lasted about 2-3 weeks. It was fun, my bf said that was the defining moment that he believed I was indeed crazy :) Hope all goes well for you and yours... keep in touch! Colleen

Thank you. The doc finally called back, im going in for blood work and tests today.
judi - Thursday, 26 June
Well, I've spent 8 years studying at uni altogether, and have 3 degrees, but still am a stay-home mom. An education is good for keeping options open for kids, though, hey.
Funny how what we want or expect for our kids is not necessarily like our own lives though. My husband and I got married less than 3 months after the first time we ever met - I'd have a fit if one of my kids did that!! But it worked for us! Happily married after 18 years.
judi - Thursday, 26 June
Ha, yeah, well you're only 36 and your kiddies are younger than mine. Jason's 17 in a few weeks, and has been dating girls for a while now. I want him to graduate high school, go to university for a few years, and get a decent job, but say 4 or 5 years from now (when this baby is ready to start school) he might be thinking about children of his own - that is, grandchildren for me!!
mommy3(2b) - Thursday, 26 June
your doctor is so insensitive to imply that your too old to have more children! I'm glad to hear that you are feeling well. I am feeling well too just emotionally worn down from the hormones this time, i was given a low dosage of an anti anxiety med from my obgyn but am seeing if i can get through without taking it. It is harder as you get older with other children and responsibilities. It will be wonderful to welcome our new baby so i am just looking toward September. Tonight I am going out to dinner with my husband, my mother offered to babysit so I am happy to be getting out and getting a break from the kids/house, etc..!! I'm sure you can relate! keep in touch :)
brandyg - Wednesday, 25 June
They dont know exactly whats causing it. My doctor wont return my calls. I left a few messages yesterday and today. Im getting frustrated! I cant sleep im in so much pain. I have a 1 yr old, and I dont have anyone to help. Its hard to be on bed-rest and still take care of him. Anytime I move around the pain gets worse, and if im on my feet for a little while I start having contractions...I have no clue whats wrong.
mamacakes - Wednesday, 25 June
it was pretty bad for me! LOL My son was 10lbs 2oz. I had an apeeziotomy* and still tore all the way to my but hole..LOL(sorry TMI)...LOL..Dr. told me i had more stitches then a football and i couldnt walk for 2 weeks..LOL...im hoping this guy is a bit smaller, but i doubt it..LOL
brandyg - Wednesday, 25 June
Thanks, I went Into the OB unit at the hospital and they kept me over-night. Its not a bladder infection. I've been trying to get ahold of my doctor to see what I can do for the pain....and not being able to sleep...
