More....

Adam & I have been together for 7 years, married for 4. We had just decided to start trying this summer when I found out I was pregnant. Christmas Eve baby. I have endometriosis so we figured we were in for a long battle, but before it even began I threw up while brushing my teeth. After 5 positive home pregnancy tests I finally admitted I needed to go to the Dr. My hubby, on the other hand, was sure after the first test. I only had 6 weeks of morning sickness that was indeed confined to the morning when I was brushing my teeth.

We went in for 4 U/S before they could finally tell me we were having a girl. Dailyn Shea Morgan! I have had no complications thus far & on the last U/S she was measuring 3 weeks ahead of schedule. I am 5' 10" & Adam is 6' so she is really long. I have another one scheduled for July 3rd to measure her growth. I was worried I was going to have GD, considering how large she was, but luckily it came back fine, just a little supermodel in there. It is almost like I read way too much crap about being pregnant that I think it is all happening to me. So far nothing short of gaining way too much weight, back pain & the inability to tie my shoes is going on. I am ok with holding on to the weight for 3 more months, then it's on.....or off!

See how my baby is doing

June 15th - 2 Days ago I went in b/c I hadn't felt her move as often or as hard. I figured she had flipped & was kicking up high, I am 5' 10" so she has a way to go before she reaches my ribs or anything I can really feel like when she was kicking down low....ouch. I had felt her move daily & told them that & what I figured was going on. Luckily I have a fantastic Dr. & she made me go to the hospital. She was doing GREAT & I got to see her again =) Fetal monitors, stress tests, a BPP U/S & 3 hours later I got to go home.

My best friend just had her baby yesterday & now that my partner in pregnancy is out of pocket I wanted some additional support & decided to sign up here. I've been getting on every once in a while just to see if some of you were progressing the same as I was.

pregnancy week by week

July 3rd - Went for another U/S today & she is still a big girl. 3 lb 12 oz & I am only 29.5 weeks. She measures 31.5 weeks. I kinda hope they are off due to her being tall, but I bet they know what they are doing. I have a spell for 2 weeks where I didn't feel her move much, but not anymore!! She is also in position, head down & facing my back, thats why it is hard to feel her kick from the outside. I thought it had to do with me being so overweight, but it is her position. I have gained sooooo much weight & it is really starting to slow me down. I was the largest I have ever been when I got preggo & now, 40 lbs later, I am just plain huge. Oh well......2 more months & it is off!! I just can't wait to hold her.
We are doing the border in the nursery this weekend. His mom is coming in so I figure I'll get her to help. Then sterilizing & washing, defensive driving course, childbirth class & pack for the hospital. Those are all of my weekends planned out & on a spreadsheet on the fridge. I am a dork.
