She's Finally Here!!!

My birth story

I went to triage on Saturday night nov17th around 7 with decreased fetal movements Because my lil princess wasn't giving me her kick counts so me and my hubby went they put her on the montior and she still wasn't moving so they buzzed her and gave me some juice and she was moving but not as much as usual, but for me being 38 weeks they say there isn't much room anymore so she may not want to move. they discharged us and said if she doesn't move again all day sunday come in for a NST since I was only 1cm dilated ,well as we are leaving a woman is being rushed in by ambulance cause she is in labor and she was screaming because of the pain I felt so bad for her I forgot to mention that night I also lost my plug and was having minor cramps but once again nothing to where they were gonna make me stay, So Were leaving I hit the parking lot and all of a sudden I have the worst contractions but they were so far apart I decided to go home thinking they were braxton hicks I go in the shower and wham 5 min apart, then 4 then 3 they got so bad I remember saying just cut me open to my hubby he said lets go back to the hospital I told him no they won't admit you until you are at least 4cm and he said I can't see you like this we have to go, So he got himself some McDonalds I couldn't even drink water I was in so much pain!!!! We get up stairs they said back already?? I just lost it because of the pain she doesn't even say anything but your "baby is ready" they admit me I still was only 1cm dilated but because My contractions were so strong and frequent they couldn't let me go home, So I get up to labor and delivery the most scary feeling knowing Im gonna be leaving here with a baby, I get up stairs call my family and they start the I.V gave me some medicine through that and I told them I wanted to wait for the epidural for as longs as I could, well to make a long sweet story short my labor went on for 16 hours I stalled mid-way through I stayed at 3cm for like half the day and they started medicine to make me contract harder which baby didn't like her heart rate dipped a lot so they said in the next hour if her heart rate still dips were gonna go into the Operating Room for A c-section!!! and they made me sign all this paperwork they turned off the medicine and left well about 1 hour later I started screaming the preasure!!! I have to push! the nurse looked at me like yea right your only 3cm so she humored me and checked me and what do you know 10cm!!! I dilated 7cm in 1 hour!!!!! after me yelling at my hubby and sister and the nurses after 45 min of pushing McKenzie came into this world 6 pounds 10 oz on sunday the 18th just 2 days before my birthday!!! I never have seen or experienced something so wonderful in my life!!!!! I love her more than life!!!!

Hello everyone! Mommies. Mommies To-be and TTC, this is my first baby and im really excited about this little gift from god!!! I had a loss Dec. 05 and it was very ruff on my family and I, I know god has a purpose thats why my angel is here now growing fast everyday!!!! so i like to think our little one in heaven is coaching our baby through her growth!!!!!!

ok so I went to go do a 4d U/S and The Baby had it's legs crossed!! my family keeps saying "yep thats your kid alright. Stubborn" but i really went cause im freaked out over every little thing, I think i have felt the baby move but im not sure i get this really excited feeling but then i won't feel it for a while So i think i really went not see what we are having but more to see that everything is ok. I have my Faith in the lord but with my M/C i didn't get this far so im really excited for all of these little things, but im also nervous at every little thing!!!!! Im going in 06/25 to try to see if the baby will work with the tech. they are very nice and are going to do it for free since the baby was sleeping with it's legs crossed, it was the cutest thing though, when they woke he/she up they started to play Peek-a-boo with it hands i thought my heart just stopped, i Couldn't stop crying. The tape they gave me I watch it twice a day it seems, I could watch my baby all day!!! So everybody Pray for me that all is well and I will do the Same!!!

OMG peoples im over the moon with being excited i went for my U/S and its a...... girl! omg my hubby called it since day one i guess the heart rate thing could be true! I got some pics that im gonna post on here she is smiling in like 5 of them the people at the 4d center were so sweet they gave me lik 20 pics. of our little princess!

6/29/07 I had my Regular 4 week check up McKenzie is doing good her heart beat was good, and she was measuring good. I had a Banana which i do everyday I only got sick a couple times this pregnancy and today I couldn't stop throwing up. Man I feel bad for the Pregos who have constant Morning sickness...

07/02/07....Ok Ladies, I have been really bad I bought McKenzie SOOO MUCH STUFF this weekend! I should know better Because everybody is telling me "oh your gonna get so much stuff for your baby shower just wait" i can't this is my first baby, Its a babygirl 2nd and how can you have too much stuff when it comes to babys????? so im gonna hold off but just like my craving if i want it im gonna get it, so if i see something that I want to get her im gonna get it!

07/11/07... So im excited but nervous, my Big U/S is in 5 more days!! I guess thats normal, I just want her to be healthy!!!! and I still sometimes don't feel pregnant it's like a dream, and I don't really fell her move so i guess when the kicks become more stronger I think reality will sink in!!

07/16/07 today is my big U/S!!! Im really nervous and im tryin not t be for her! I just want her to be ok, I think she will be fine, I just have to have faith! Im also excited beacuse I have not seen her in almost a month so, man I wonder how much she has grown!! well wish me luck.

Ok So i just got back from my U/S and they changed my due date from 11/30/07 to 11/24/07! They said she looks good and she's 1 pound 1oz!!! so cute!!! I couldn't stop crying!!! thanks for all the prayers!!!

Ok my craving Have been pretty much the sme since i got Pregnant!! Steak, Otter-pops(LOL) hot sauce, Chicken wings(extra hot) Lemonade, WATER ALL THE TIME, Cherries, Bananas, Any Cereals!!! Bagels with cream cheese!! (mmm) Chocolate milk!!!! and last but not least McDonalds Fries nothing else but there fries weird huh???? maybe that’s why I have gained 17 pounds!!!!!

07/22/07 I think McKenzie was having a party last night in there or at least I think that was her, I mean it was strong and Im starting to feel it everyday so im just gonna go with what I feel, Man I'm getting excited for NOV. it feels like it's so far away but really 3 months isn't long, I've heard the last 3 months go by slow???? because it feel's like it's gone pretty fast but sometimes im like dang it took forever to get here!!! I went to register last night I guess being a first timer Im so clueless on what to get??? I mean the obvious stuff like I really want the pink Diaper Genie and my pack'n play but my hubby says he wants to get that stuff, Im trying to explain to him that we need all we can and we are gonna be buying stuff for her for 18yrs and let the family start her off with stuff!!! LOL but I should talk I don't leave any store im in without picking something up for her, I'm the baby of 4, my mom is the eldest of 9 yea 9!! and I have about 35 first cousin's alone!!! and she is the first Grandbaby for my Mom the first Greatgrandaughter and my first baby!!! she is already spoiled!!! well my Dr. Appt. is on the 30th and I already know im gaining to much weight so I have changed my eating habbits, I eat good calories and i try to walk and swim. I wasn't a small girl before i got pregnant so I wanna make sure im gaining baby-weight not "oo I'll have another peice of cheesecake weight" LOL

7/25/07 we had a lil scare last night I went to the ER because I was cramping really bad and my back was hurting, They timed them and they said they couldn't pick up any contractions on the moniter so they brought me to have a U/S and she was fine her heart Rate dipped a lil but because Im only a lil over 22 weeks they said it's normal espically when she moves around, I have been feeling her on a regular basis and it makes me so happy just know she is ok, They said her fluid looks great and they let me go home and told me to take it easy. I was also crying a lot yesterday because my brother bought a toy poodle puppy who is only about 8 weeks old and I was watching it for a couple of nights and when he first brought him he was a lil sick so I got him to eat and he was just like a baby, He had me carrying him everywhere when he got better he was playful he had to sleep next to me and when he took him back I was so devasted??? it was like someone took my baby away?? I guess because im going through that attachment part where I was like "his mommy" and he was so little and cute I never thought I would be so upset!! but My lil princess will be here soon and She deserves mine and her daddy's full attention so I told my brother he has to bring that dog every weekend or I will hurt him LOL so he promised, plus he just found out that his girlfriend Is pregnant, So McKenzie will have a cousin she can play with!!!!

7/30/07 I had a Dr. Appt today They told me that One of Mckenzie's Kindey was dilated, and that it wasn't that bad of a concern but that next month they want to do an U/S to measure it again, Me and her daddy are just praying that she is ok it just makes me nervous and also I didn't do the AFP testing because im a worry wort and I couldn't just sit at home wondering even though i guess I do anyways, But I will love her with all my heart I already do so god has a plan, I think if there were something major then they would have told me like with kidney but they said other than that she looks good and Im measuring good and her heart rate and fluid look great so I feel blessed and I think this problem should get better I hope people will pray for our lil Kenzie as I would do the same for all of you!!!!!

08/11/07 Long time not write for me, well I have been feeling McKenzie on a daily basis sometimes she makes me nervous when she is a lil lazy and then she perks up a couple days later which I went to the ER for because I am taking no chances espically with her kidney, I have a Dr. appt on the 29th where I get my yummy sugar drink (LOL) and a U/S to re-measure her kidney, But When I was in the ER they told me I have to bee seen this week!! so thats means my Dr will see me this week and Hopefully on the 29th, Im starting to feel like wow my lil girl will be here soon, I hope the weeks go by I love being pregnant but the suspense is like crazy but on the flip side I only have 3 more months to get spoiled by everyone but my Hubby owes me a lot more Im talkin years! LOL :)

08/15/07.. Alrighty then I went to the doctors today because this past weekend I was in the ER again because my Lil Princess didn't want to move in like a whole day!!! I was so freaked, and my hubby even was like were going right now! so we get to the ER and I swear I have been so many times they know me by first name basis Im gonna have no problems when Im in labor! LOL anyways she hooks me up to monitor to check Kenzie and what does the lil stinker do!!! start flipping out! I mean she is like doing bruce lee kicks in there doing kart wheels, Punching! and the nurse was looking at me like "uh are you sure she hasn't moved? I just was happy she was okay and we laughed and laughed because now we know she is our kid!!!!! I stayed for a couple of hours and everything looked ok! So today was my appt. and they did a U/S only for a second to check her heart and she looks good! wow how she has grown!!! I get to have another U/S in Sept to measure her kidney and see if it is still dilated, I hope not I just want my lil Princess to be ok, Come on Nov!!!!!!

8/29/07 Today I had my glucose test Yum yum pure sugar drink!!! It wasn't as bad as I thought, At least i didn't throw up!!! her heart rate was 170 and she is measuring good, I only gained 1 pound! so im excited about that, Im staying away from salt so I think that why my weight gain slowed down!!!! well Her ultrasound is in 1 week so I hope everybody prays for kenzie that her Kidney is better!!!!

10/03/07 today I did my belly cast what a cool experience!!! I suggest every preggo do it. I had so much fun and It is just amazing to see what my belly looks like from view other than the mirror.. My lil princess was kicking the whole time and I think she was pissed because when the casting gets hard it doesn't give her the softnes for her to move it was really firm man was she mad she was giving me some Tae-Bo kicks it was the cutest lil thing I love her so much it's like were already close and I don't even have her yet!!!!! My baby shower is in like 2 days Im so excited but as of right now things are looking like it may not go as planned which is fine I feel like with this whole shoer thing I have been acting really Spoiled so im just gonna go with the flow~! Im excited for my family to just be together in honor of McKenize!!!

10/06/07 today was my baby shower!!! it was so much fun we had a Champagne Brunch for my Friends and family and overall it was just a great day!! I got so much stuff for our lil girl I was shocked but i love my family they are always there for me and im blessed to have them! her bassinet is so cute! it's pink with little stars and moons I will put a pic up of it wow the time is winding down now, Im so reayd for her to be here but I know she likes it in there for now!!!!!

10/10/07 I had My every 2 week appt today, it went well they are saying Im measuring a lil bit bigger then my Gestation but they didn't make to big a fuss about it so i guess we will see at the next appt. I have been itching all over latley and I don't know what It is and Im getting so Anxious for her to be here I want her to be healthy So if she could stay in there for another 4 weeks I think that would be perfect but she is gonna come when she is ready and when God wants her to so Im just sitting here and the time is going by so slow!!!!!!!

10/22/07 Omg the fires have all of us scared and being almost nine months pregnant and having to pack all the stuff me and my hubby just put together for our baby is a nightmare! the smoke and dust are so bad to breathe I have to have a mask on I have to eat for her but I have no urge to eat because it is so hot and stuffy I finished packing everything all her clothes her crib and the stuff she needs like the car seat and stroller and some U/S pictures and videos and we packed our Hospital bag last week so we have that bag just incase, but we only packed what we needed for us toothbrush and little clothes just in case the traffic gets bad and we have to sleep in the car!!! man o man Im supposed to have a Dr appt on wed too I hope they don't cancel it due to the fires, they are so close to my house it's scary well me and Kenzie are doing good for now!!

10/24/07 I jutst got back from My DR. Appt. all seems to be going well as of now, my Dr was a bit snappy i think because he had a lot of people to see and because San Diego has had a lot of fires he had makeup appts with people that had been cancelled before, but hey thats not my fault this is the first time he has been kind of mean to me And of course my hubby was at work so I was alone!!!! :( but it's ok I see him every week now! wow the countdown is really on now!! Im excited and I can't wait to see my lil princess!! also i did my GBS swab today so I guess I get the results next week!

11/05/07 Ok so I had A U/S on friday They said she is 6 pounds 2 oz!!!! already!!!! I can't believe how big she has gotten, I just wanted to kiss her lil chubby cheeks!!! they didn't change my due date I don't know why my Dr said i was measrung big? is she supposed to be smaller than that at this stage? O and another thing Im so pissed because Im supposed to see the dr every week now right? wrong he's going on VACATION and I don't get to see him until the 16th!!! 1 freakin week before my due date??????? how is this at all ok? isn't he supposed to be checking my cervix and other things every week I know it's my first baby and I will probably be over- due but umm what if I go into labor? the dr i have been seeing for nine months won't be there???/ I guess it's my hormones but im so mad!!!!!
