23 WEEKS 4 DAYS- i had another doctors appointment yesterday, on the 7th. i have lost a total of 17 pounds this pregnancy, and within the past 4 weeks i have gained 0.2 lbs back, even though by this point i should have gained like 15 lbs. thats fine with me, because now i am the same weight that i was when i was pregnant with isabelle at this time!! the baby's heartrate was strong. my fundal height was measuring at 25 weeks instead of 23w3d. my next dr's appt is on feb. 4th (i will be about 28 weeks), and that day i will also have the glucose test to screen for gestational diabetes. after that, my ob appointments will be every 2 weeks until 36 weeks, and then they will be every week! my next u/s is around 28 weeks too, and then i will have an u/s every 2 weeks after that until 32 weeks, then after 32 weeks i will have an u/s every week until i deliver!

22 WEEKS 1 DAY- about ivey.. well shes obviously getting bigger, i still havent gained any weight and i think i might have lost an additional pound or few. i hope not, im really hoping i gained a little because ive tried REALLY hard not to get sick and ive been trying to eat really good lately. everything aches and is so sore, a lot more so this pregnancy with ivey than it was with isabelle. my sinus infection is clearing up slowly, and i will finally be off antibiotics in a week or so. i keep on getting a lot of contractions, or braxton hicks, and a lot of pelvic pressure, which i didnt have with issy bizzy until i was like 32 weeks. i go into the ob in another 2 weeks or so, and i have another sonogram in about a week and a half. anyways im going to bed, were getting up early and going to bmore tomorrow to visit with the family, nigggggght!!!!!!

20 WEEKS 4 DAYS- hi guys!!! another pregnancy update for ya =) i went to the doc on thursday and they gave me a new perscription for the sickness, but finally my sickness is getting a little better!!! thankfully i havent lost any more weight, but the baby is about a pound now and i am still the same weight i was 2 weeks ago, which is a total weight loss of 17 lbs. so anyways ive been craving some chipotle and jalapenos like nuts! every night when donovan comes home he makes a bubble bath (lights candles too!) for me so i can lay and relax and the water helps take the pressure off the pelvic area (preg/post moms, you know what im talking about!). im loving it, im finally starting to show, thankfully i still have a belly button so i can keep my belly ring in, the morning sickness is going away slowly, and this pregnancy, i can relax and we both know what to expect, we have time to read the baby books and really enjoy each other and the growing baby girl!! im going to run errands tomorow, so im going to finish up my baby shower registry at walmart. thankfully i have a lot of baby stuff, so theres only a couple new things that i really need (like a PINK stroller/car seat!!). i cant wait until christmas, the kids are going to love what santa got them, im sure. tomorrow we have isabelle and jaden so im going to sit them down and help them write christmas wish lists to mr. clause! if youve looked at the new pics, i made isabelle and jaden 'big sister' and 'big brother' shirts. sometime soon we're going to take them to their own toddler hospital tour, and they each get a stuffed animal and their picture taken. when the ivey comes, they get to hang their picture on the side of her bassinnett (sp?) thing at the hospital.. how cute!! anyways im going to go relax with the hubby (!!), since isabelle finally went to sleep at 9! (her bed time is 8, but shes got a bad cough!). goodnight everyone!

19 WEEKS 5 DAYS- Donovan and i went and got 20 week U/S today (click here to see all of the pics in my webshots album). My belly is definately getting bigger, but so far no weight gain at all. which i guess is good, because all the maternity pants are too big, even my pre pregnancy pants are too big. Ivey is almost a pound.. she's measuring a little big (20 weeks and 1-2 days, instead of 19 weeks 5 days)-- which is awesome!!! Getting the sonogram was awesome, everything is so perfect.. donovan and i were so proud of our little ivey! she was wiggling all over the sonogram and all our pictures are blurry because she wouldnt stop kicking. the poor U/S technician seemed a little annoyed, i feel bad because she sees a million expectant moms/ dads and theyre all like 'isnt our baby the cutest! look at that nose!'. fortunately for her, donovan and i didnt annoy her with those questions, because we all know ivey is gorgeous!! i'm joking, but not really!! anyways, we're going on the hosp tour tonight.. so im excited to go there!!! (then go home and relax!!!!)

13 WEEKS- my 1st trimester screening results came back abnormal, which means the baby is at a higher risk for having down syndrome. i was advised to go have a procedure called chronic villus sampling to look at the baby's 46 chromosones and also to go for genetic counseling. cvs is very similar to an amniocintesis. i was nervous =/ to learn more about it, go here, CVS. after the cvs, i also had to go take a shot of rhogam because my blood is rh neg.

10 WEEKS- instead of going to the OB&GYN center, i made my first prenatal appointment with obstetrician Dr. Kim. i went into the office at 9am, but the receptionist said they had made a mistake and my appt. was actually not until 12. donovan and i waited until 12, and we were finally seen by the doctor at 1pm. he gave me a pap smear, but would not check for the heart beat. he said that when they checked my urine, my HCG levels were a lot lower than normal. he made me leave and go take a blood test to measure HCG levels. he said he didnt even know if i had a viable pregnancy, and he wasnt going to see me until the pregnancy was confirmed. he said i could possibly be having a miscarriage or tubal pregnancy, but he didnt know for sure. i started freaking out, i was sick, cramping, and upset. after leaving dr. kim's office, donovan decided to take me to the er. while we waited to be seen in the er, i was so upset, i thought i was losing my baby =( donovan kept putting his hand on my tummy but i told him not to, because i didnt know if our little baby was even alive in there. it hurt so bad! at the er they checked my urine and my blood. they also performed an u/s. right when the u/s started, donovan and i saw the little baby dancing on the screen! the doctor said everything was okay. my blood and urine hcg levels were completely normal. i was just experiencing severe morning sickness, or hyperemesis. when they measured the baby during the u/s, he/she was measuring at exactly 10 weeks, for a due date of May 1st. he advised me not to go back to dr. kim and just make an appt. at the OB&GYN center instead. a week or so later, i had my first appt. with the OB&GYN center with Dr. Chen. Dr. Chen was very nice! we heard the heartbeat and everything looked normal. he then had me go take the first trimester screening.

5 WEEKS- morning sickness started right away! haha, almost right after i saw the + on the pregnancy test. i was so sick i couldnt keep anything down, and my ob couldnt see me for another 2 weeks, so i went into the er. the er did an u/s and the baby was so little all they saw was a little sack. the doc estimated me to be about 5 weeks pregnant, which made the health dept's due date of april 17th about 2 weeks off. a couple weeks after this, i went into the OB&GYN center and Dr. Acarenza gave me another perscription for the sickness.
