Hello all! Excellent day today. Bunny Bun had a really great scan this morning and it's official- Bunny is a Girl! We're so happy. Honestly it didn't matter what we were having, only that the baby is healthy. Now it's time to start up the shopping and decorating the nursery. Love and hugs to all and I hope that you're having a good day today. We are!

xoxo

Hello all. Had a bit of a scare on Tuesday. Headaches, saw those little silvery stars and was light headed all day. I thought I may have been coming down with this flu that's been sweeping the lands-After work I came home to try and lay down, to only become restless and worrisome. I went to triage and found out that I was dehydrated and my blood pressure was up. I felt bad because all day long, I tried to wait it out thinking that my "off" feeling would pass. Eventually it did, however there could have been something more serious happening to us and I didn't heed the warnings. I'm grateful that this was a minor issue and can be avoided in the future by monitoring my salt intake...no protein in the urine and I'm not pre-eclamptic as of this point.

On a more pleasant note, we find out what we are having this Tuesday- can't wait. I think we are having a boy- Daddy wants another little girl. I'm happy either way. We have a couple names picked out. Dante Lee and Nya Belle... I'll post again soon! thanks for taking the time to read my blog!

NT Scan went well today...Bunny Bun is doing well. Wasn't as active as we would have liked to see and that's ok. Melted my heart today, that's for sure.

Will post again later. Take care all.

3/7- WHAT on earth is it with me and mustard? I want it on everything. I `ve never really been a fan, but that `s changed...oh well-I `m sure I `ll get over it.

ahhhh deep breath here. Tuesday during a cervical length measurement ultrasound it was discovered that my cervix was starting to funnel from the inside out. I was consulted on getting a cerclage- which this exact happening was what we were hoping to catch with the biweekly scans- and I elected to have one. We did the works- spinal block-cut away and pushed up part of my bladder to get the stitch up higher and we made it out ok with minimal discomfort. I will tell you this, I knew for a long time that my cervix wasn `t `normal ` and that I was going to have issues with this pregnancy- however my dr `s really didn `t seem to understand what I was trying to tell them. An incompetent cervix/soft mushy cervix like mine doesn `t `look ` incompetent on an ultra sound. It wasn `t until I was on the operating table and they manually examined my cervix were they able to determine that the fibers of my cervix were to flexible they could have put a finger through it right to the baby. This catch in the changes of my body were meant to happen. I believe that angels were watching over us on Tuesday. I pray daily and thank God that this opportunity was given and allowed to be taken. We `re on modified bedrest and will find out this afternoon after my follow up scan if I can return to work on Monday. I `m hoping that I am able to go back. At the very least this baby needs to stay in for 7 more weeks according to the surgeon. I `m not so good at the layng around thing. I will update later on this afternoon.

follow up scan went well. We are able to return to work Monday with very limited activity. The cerclage is in a good position and Bunny Bun is doing well too. Her h/r was 166 this afternoon. To all of those that have shared their cerclage stories and experiences, thank you so much for your input. It helped me become a better health advocate for myself and I appreciate it- we appreciate it so much. Thank you for being around for us. xoxo

babytauri - Friday, 1 August
LMAO! Knowded it! LOL!!!!! I'd like to see that word in the dictionary! Now that we are sure it's a girl, we are thinking even harder for a name. We like Trinty, but we aren't falling all over it anymore :( So we have to think on it some more. And when the hell are you gonna pop!? Geez! Nyah is just taking her time isn't she!? I know you said they'd induce you by Monday but I hope she comes this weekend!!!! :)

babytauri - Thursday, 31 July
Still no Nyah yet????


adriennella - Wednesday, 30 July
Oh, I"m definitely dropping. I can feel her head from the inside.

Oh my, you're nesting! I did so much a month ago that there's really not much to do! I went out of my mind making the nursery and cleaning in July!

Your baby will be here so soon...how exciting!!!


adriennella - Wednesday, 30 July
I read that 2nd babies drop later (even during labor sometimes). Rose dropped at 34 weeks, so I'm just overanalyzing again! Haha. I'll ask my doc today what to expect.


adriennella - Wednesday, 30 July
I have a 36 week appointment today. I'm excited to see how I've progressed. I'm not going to get my hopes up, though. I figure I'm probably the same as last week.

When did your first baby engage?


adriennella - Wednesday, 30 July
oh man...I hope you have your baby by the weekend

I told my husband this morning how exciting it was talking do you during your contractions. Thanks for answering my questions and giving me an inside peek.


adriennella - Wednesday, 30 July
Yup, I live in San Jose now. I was born on the East Coast, moved to Europe and spent most of my life in the south. I love being in California and won't be leaving any time soon.

My first love was from Appleton, Wisconisin.

I'm just so so so excited to be talking to someone that's actually in labor. I know you must think I'm crazy!


Britney8328 - Tuesday, 29 July

***MDelly*** - Monday, 28 July
No problem. You may have to email them your pack n play model number to get the changing top to match your pack n play. I had to do that. Good Luck. Have a good day!


***MDelly*** - Monday, 28 July
Hi,

I noticed your question about buying the pack n play changing thing separately. You can go to www.gracobaby.com and buy them separate there. Hope all is well. Take Care. ttyl.


frogsnack - Saturday, 26 July
Thank you so much for your response. I think I will enjoy a glass tonight, I'll try anything at this point.Best of luck to you too.


brownsugar - Saturday, 26 July

babytauri - Saturday, 26 July
Awww! I'm ready for you to have her!!! :( Ok, well take it easy! Actually, no, don't take it easy! You're suppose to have lots of sex, walk alot, eat lots of spicy foods, drink some raspberry tea (or whatever is in that book "What to Expect When You're Expecting")! LOL! I'm gonna be doin all of that when my time comes! I'll keep checking on you! And remember to shoot me a text when they admit you for labor!


babytauri - Friday, 25 July
I was enjoying the sleeping-til-noon but I've gotta get back on the hunt because I'm showing and I don't wanna turn off potential employers! SO......has Nyah made her debut?????
