Hi!

This is Pregnancy #3 for me... I have two Girls age 7 (Shayna) and almost 2 1/2(Jorja).My Husband has 3 other kids in their 20's some are starting their own families this year! This is a little bit of a surprise for us as we had never made a decsion one way or the other but had both kinda reconciled to not having any more due to not being able to!

It is a long Story but to get my First child my husband had to have a reversal with less than 30% chance of it working.

My second Daughter we needed another reversal as the previous one was no longer working!

Gladly no pain was suffered to gain another pregnancy! But we had been trying for a long time and then gave up thinking it was not longer possible again which we were happy with!

However we are overjoyed to meet another little person in the fall! I Will have to have another c-section due to the other two so I am very nervous about that as neither were particularly good! But It is All in God's Hands so I shall leave it to him to sort out!

March 8th

Morning Sickness is All day and all night and I have already lost 3 lbs! This happened in my second pregnancy too but the morning Sickness lasted all pregnancy that time so I am hoping for it to end soon this time around! I am not getting excited about this one yet! I think it is from the suprise of it and I am SOOOOO Tired all the time and feel crap so when the snow disappears and I feel better hopefully I can get some good excitement going! I have Just moved my 23month old into a Toddler bed in preparation for her allow the baby in her old Crib! Also So I can deal with anything before I grow too large! I am looking forward to a scan on March 18th to make sure there is only one!!!!! Hoping for a Boy but mainly a healthy Babe!

March 12th

We may have a Boys name in the bag! No Sign of a Girls Name yet! Naming is harder the more you have! (Of the same sex!)

March 15th

Today I have some pains but feel like poop pains! Though I am going regular so that is wierd... Getting wierd crazy preggo dreams and sleeping not too good but the ms has lightened for a few days this week which was nice for spring break. I am not looking forward to the early start again on Monday! I have to get the Kids up at 6:30am as Shayna's School bus leaves the top of the road at 7:30am! That is hard especially in these cold snowy winters we have here but hopefully the spring will hit here soon and I can enjoy the stroll up the road!

Looking forward to my U/S on Tuesday will be hoping they move the date on a bit!!!! LOL... better that way than reducing it!

Here is the babe! 18/March/08

10 weeks old... very wriggly and fun to see so clearly this time around! 166 beats a minute.

March 28th 2008

Well I still feel so sick I cannot do anything or want to do anything from about 2pm to bed time...It is a killer!!!!! LOL I have Children that need me at that time! I really hate Dinner time and the thought of it makes me cringe and then making it is worse and then having to eat it...It is a force down! HA!!!

Well I am really anxious to find out the sex of this one...we have never been lucky enough with the others so Hopefully this one will co-operate! All hoping for a Boy and yes I would be a little disappointed if it is a girl just because I have always wanted a boy and this is for sure my last :) !!!

I am still finding it hard to adjust to accepting we got pregnant again! I think if the sickness wears off It will get better but I am thinking it is here to stay like my last pregnancy! :(

April 10th 2008

Well Have not seen or heard the baby since Last wrote but Morning Sickness is alot better these days though not totally gone yet. I am getting a little more excited about it than before but still testing my age!!!!

Still desperatly hoping it will be a boy this time I should be able to try and find out sometime in May. Next Appointment Is May 13th with the OB

April 27th 2008... 15 weeks and 4 days

Well I saw my OB earlier than expected as they gave me a cancellation on April 15th so that was nice to meet the guy who is going to do the c-section... older than I had expected but they are often the best!

I have had bloodwork for fifth's disease this week as I was exposed to it this past week I think I am ok though as I have heard nothing back from it.

I am so wanting to find out the sex of this baby I have decided if the ultrasound in a few weeks does not reveal all I will go for a 3d/4d ultrasound as there is one close by me. I have never had one before but I wanted to with the last pregnancy but decided not to!

I am Glad the good weather is here finally and we can enjoy outdoors more.

I haven't got a preggie belly as fast as I thought I would being #3 but I can see it! I am still able to wear my regular clothes though so that is wierd!

Well names have not been easy and we thought we had them sorted a while ago but no! Still rethinking them! I think it will be easier once we know what it is!

I am glad I didn't know the sex of the other two before they were born the suprise of that was great... but we shall have to see... if we are meant to we will!

May 31st 2008

Today sucks!

No Gender could be determined I am devastated!

Well At least the tech was fantastic chatty showed me alot of baby parts including its toes which was awesome and she saud it was healthy. I had a good cry when I got home Sorry there is no news, am having a 3d on July 14th so I will know eventually!!!

Saturday June 14th

If it is a boy His Name will be GORDIE VG

If it is a girl Her name will be Brylee VG

I am glad we have the name sorted, well the first names. The boy will not have middle names, but the girls middle name might have another name in there somewhere it is still in debate!!! However the hardest part seems to have been accomplished already!

I am having less cravings now and have a problem of not knowing what I want to eat so i can't!!!

I think I will probably have a small baby like the others have been but I guess we shall see what the next 4 months do for me!

I am having alot more stronger kicks this pregnancy that in the past two but I guess there is more room to do that after the other two! I have no NEW stretch marks yet and hope I will not get any more!

I am still tired but more because of the heat of the summer which sprung upon us all kind of suddenly! I am ok though as we bought some air conditioners for our bedrooms so at least I can sleep comfortably!

June 26th

Got first swellings this week (23) in my left ankle and it was very painful!

My current cravings are now KFC!!! I just want to eat it all the time which I don't of course but I am shocked at what a take out junkie this baby is!!!!

I have craved swiss chalet chicken sandwiches and cheetos and also big into the coffee from tim Hortons and their bagels with cream cheese and It is a costly craving!!!!! I still think if I had to guess I would guess a boy but will find out in 2 weeks for sure. I am better with the thought of it being a girl than I was. I just will be happy when I know for sure!

July 15th 2008

Well very happy to say we will be a 3 girl family though a boy will be missed but God Knows best!

I am in love with her name Brylee but still working on the rest of it!

I am about to go to the Uk for a holiday to see my Mum who has not been at all well in the past few weeks and dad who is probably tired from doing all the caring stuff!

I am excited that I can finally start getting a little prepared for our little girl. My other girls are very happy and excited and even my 2 year old seems to have a full grasp of it all which is amazing.

Well on return from the holiday I will be searching for what remains of the baby things That I haven't already given away! Seems the pattern in this little family! But at least there are a few things that I saved that I loved the most!

August 21st 2008

Well since my last update we have had quite a change of things!

We went to scotland to visit my Parents and she has Cancer. I am devastated as she is close to me even though we are far away in Kilometers. She will not be able to come here for the birth of Brylee and she and i will find that particularly hard. I am not sure how I am going to manage the rest of the girls and school and everything straight out of hospital and c-section I am anxious about that. My hubbie is around while I am in hospital but has to go back to work straight after thanksgiving :( I know that will be a tough week for me.

I have been toilet training Jorja this week and she is doing well but it is killing me to get her on the toilet as she has to be forced sometimes and so I forget and lift her and then I die of belly pain!

However it will be good before thebaby gets here so I am glad I have done it.

My Oldest turned 7 today! I cannot believe She is going into Grade two in a couple of weeks...where does the time go?

Well Brylee is still very active and SO SO low I cannot believe she is not falling out!

Well that is all from me for now!

c-section booked Oct 9th 2:30pm
