Hello everyone !!! First, let me tell you a little about me. I'm a 23 yr old senior at South Carolina State University. I major in computer science and minor in digital media. Me and my baby's father are still together. We love each other so much and are so excited and me being pregnany (this is both of our first child).

I had my first OB appointment on February 1st. They did blood work and an ultrasound. I also got to listen to the heatbeat !!! It was so amazing cause i didnt expect to hear a heartbeat so soon. At first the doctor told me it looks like i should be 9wks. After she did the ultrasound, she pushed it back and said i was 8wks and a couple days (but hopefully when i go back the push it back up a little). My due date is set to Sep. 9th. I go back on Feb. 27th for my "first trimester screening (i just want to make sure the baby is going to be healthy). After that i go back to my OB on March 5th. Im so excited about going. I'm ready for another ultrasound. I think if i could, i would get one done everyday !! Plus this will be the first appt. that me boyfriend goes to. He missed the first one cause he just started a new job, and they wouldnt let him miss any of his training time.I think he's more excited than i am.

Sunday February 10th, 2008 ( 9wks 4days)

Today i fell good. Didnt get sick or anything. Im so ready to go to my appointment on the 27th. I hope they do an ultrasound so i can see my little baby again. I should be exactly 12 wks when i go there. Time seems like its going by so slow !! I guess thats cause im counting every day, i just cant wait untill Sept. gets here !!

I kinda had trouble knowing what month is was in, so i thought this might be useful to some of you :

First Month of pregnancy is 1-5 weeks,
Second Month is 6-9 weeks
Third Month is 10-13 weeks
Fourth Month is 14-18 weeks
Fifth Month is 19-22 weeks
Sixth Month is 23-27 weeks
Seventh Month is 28-31 weeks
Eighth Month is 32-36 weeks
Ninth Month is 37 -40 weeks

Tuesday February 12, 2008 (10wks 0days)

Im exactly 10 wks today ! I had school today and had to suffer threw all my classes. I guess today was just one of those days. I had that bad feeling in my throat the whole day up untill 8pm ! I brought some of the B6 vitmain, but it didnt really do nothing, or make i need to take it more than one time, i dont no. If im still having these feeling when i go back to the doctor (hopefully im not), im gonna see if there's something they can give me. Im thinking about getting me one of those heart dopplers, but im gonna wait till my appointment an ask them about it.

Saturday February 16, 2008 (10wks 4days)

Well i brought the morning sickness lolly-pop. It really does work. I've been feeling good the whole day ! Except for a little back/side pain. Is anyone else having this problem? Other than that, i'm fine, and hopefully (i pray) baby is fine to. Still waiting on the 27th for my appointment (will the 27th ever come !!!). I even called to try and schedule an earlier date, but they said because of my due date, that's when i need to come in. So i guess i have no choice but to wait. Well untill next time, god bless !

Tuesday February 19, 2008 (11wk 0d)

I'm 11wks !! The pass couple days have been pretty good. Wasnt sick or anything, just that little funny feeling in my throat. When am i gonna get my baby bump ?! I'm so ready for it.

Saturday February 23, 2008 (11wk 4d)

Today went pretty good. Didnt have any m/s, but still didnt really want to eat that much. Only 3 more days untill my 12wks appointment ! My boyfriend just told me last night that he will be able to come to this appointment after all, so im so happy !! He's real excited about hearing the heart beat, since he wasnt able to be there to hear it the first time. Well untill next time, god bless .

Sunday February 24, 2008 (11wk 5d)

Two more days untill my appointment ! Felt good today, even though i did bring-up one time this morning :(

Tuesday February 26, 2009 (12wk 0d)

Tomorrow is my big day (I go for my 12wk appointment) ! I'm so exicted, but at the same time scared. I'm just hoping and praying that everything is still fine with my baby. My back is killing me ! Is it suppose to be feeling like this? It hurts on the two sides everytime i move, or if i bend the wrong way. Also, tomorrow is the day that im suppose to tell my mother that im prego ! Wish me luck that i dont back out,ha.

My 1st trimester: December 04, 2007 to March 03, 2008. (0 - 12 weeks) My 2nd trimester: March 04, 2008 to June 16, 2008. (13 - 27 weeks)
My 3rd trimester: June 17, 2008 to September 09, 2008. (28 - 40 weeks)

Wednesday February 27, 2008 (12wk 1d)

I had my appointment this morning ! First let me tell u about the scare i had this morning. I got up to use the bathroom, and blood started to come out. There wasnt any on my panties or nothing, it just came when i pee. I was so scared, i didnt no what to do (Luckily i had my appointment in a couple hrs). So anyways, the appointment went good. The dr said the heart beat was 134 which was good for how far along i was. I really didnt get any good pictures printed out, but i saw some good one's on the screen. He/she was just moving all over the place, making it real hard to even get a measurement. I go back next week on the 5th, but its just for a normal check up, i just hope i at least i get to hear the heart beat again. Now, im just waiting for my 20wk appointment so i can find out what im having ! God bless.

Sunday March 2, 2008 (12wk 5d)

Hello all ! I'm almost 13wks. Yesterday i felt great, no sickness or anything. Today i felt a little bad when the day first started, but as time moved on, im getting better. The only thing that's bothering me is my back. It hurts if i dont sit up straight. Well, i got my next OB appointment on 3/5/8. I'm not sure what their going to do, i how at least they let me listen to the heart beat again. I'm just ready to get to 20wks so i can no what im having. Not sure yet if i was a boy or girl, I'll no by next month i guess. I still havent started to show yet ! What is my baby bump waiting on ! Well, untill next time, God bless and hope everyone is doing well !

Wednesday March 5th, 2008

I has my appointment today. I was only in there for like 10-15 minutes. They checked my weight and blood pressure. Then i went in the room to see my doctor. She first used the little hand held machine to try and find the heart beat. She couldnt find it (she only tried it for like 5 seconds), so she end up doing an ultra sound. I was happy to have one cause i wasnt expecting one untill my 20wks appointment. The ultra sound only last for 1 minute (i think she was kinda ready to go home cause i was the last person f the day). We still didnt get to hear the heart beat because of the position where the baby was sitting, she said it was under my pelvic bone or something like that. Even though the ultra sound didnt last long, we did get to see he/him kick it's legs up. This was my bf first time seeing the ultra sound in person, so he thought its was cool. My next appointment is April 2nd, 2008 and hopefully we will know the gender by then. Well untill later, God bless

Tuesday March 12th, 2008 (14wk 1d)

Hi everyone. Well for today and yesterday i felt great ! I wasnt sick or anything so hopefully this continues. It seems like im having a little extra leaking down below. Anyone else had something like that? I also got my fetal heart monitor today !! I tried it but i couldnt find a heart beat, i think the one i found was mine. The last time i was to the dr they couldnt hear the heart beat either because of the position of the baby. But im thinking it shouls have moved up a little now, but i dont no. If anyone has one and no how to use it, please leave me a comment on my page. Well, other that's about it for now. Just waiting on April 2nd to get hear for my next appointment. Talk to you guys later ! Bye

Monday March 17th, 2008 (14wk 6d)

Ok, I was so exicted last night. Remember i said i bought one of those fetal heart monitors and couldnt find/hear the heartbeat? Well last night at around 1am (in the morning), i found it !! I was so happy when i heard the fast little heartbeat. It was about 143-145. So i think thats a good/normal rate. So of course now, i wanna listen to it everyday ! Well, talk to you ladies later, Bye

Wednesday April 2nd, 2008 (17wk 1d)

I had my appointment today. Heartbeat was strong. Dr said my blood pressure was kinda high, so their going to watch it to make sure it dont go. She also said i need to drink more fluid. So i guess it's more water for me ! :( I do drink water, but its just a certain amount i can drink a day before it make my stamach feel like its about to bust. She set my Big appointment for April 23rd ! I was wishing they would say come back next next week, but i guess i was dreaming. They dont tell the gender till wk 20. Well....i guess it's not that far away, just 3 wks, and i'll know if it's a boy or gurl. Oh ya, i bought my first baby item yesterday !! It was a "My first bible book". I just had to buy something, my boyfriend said we can start buying stuff after we find out what it is.


Tuesday March 18th 2008 (15wk)

I'm 15 weeks !! I can't wait till i get to find out what im having, cause i'm gonna go shopping crazy ! I called my dr an they said they will have to schedule me for another ultasound when i come in. I go in on April 2nd, and i will be 17wks. I no they can tell me then, they just trying to make me loose my mind with this waiting !! I think i felt my baby move today ! I was trying to listen to the heartbeat, then i felt this little flutter feeling everyone talks about. I dont no if that really was the baby, or me imagining it. You no ur mind can play tricks on you sometime. Well, hope everyone is doing great. Bye

Sunday March 30th, 2008 (16wk 5d)

Havent been feeling all that well this weekend. Got that funny feeling back in my throat, which i havent had in a good lil while. Got my appoint next this coming Wend. !! Hope the schedule me for an ultrasound the following week so i can no if im having a boy or gurl !! Like i said, i think it is a boy cause i used one of those ovulation calendar and the day that i think i got pregnant on, it shows a boy, but we'll see. I check the heartbeat every night an it's almost always in the 130's. Other then that, everything is good. After i find out what it is, im going shopping !! Cant wait, cant wait, cant wait !! Untill next time, good bye :)


pregnancy

April 15th, 2008 (19wk)

So Im 19wks today and one more week untill my big ulrasound (20wks and half the way there) !! Can't wait, i think im kinda figuring out what the flutters feel like now. Cause everytime i lay on my stomach, i feel a butterfly feeling. So i think i got it now, but im gonna ask my dr just to make sure.

Wed. April 16th 2008 (19wk 1d)

Only 7 more days till my big appointment !! I'm so excited, i no this week is going to go by slow as ever! Yesterday i was in the mirror for a while, standing up fixin my hair. Bad, bad idea ! My heal, leg, and back was hurting last night like crazy ! I didnt sleep well at all last night, kept having to move around. It also seems like im not able to really sleep on my stomach anymore. Feels kinda weird, not comfortable at all some nights.

Sunday April 20th, 2008 (19wks 5d)

I was checking for my baby's heartbeat and all of a sudden i felt, KICK ! That was the strongest i ever felt it (maybe because i was pressing down with the doppler). At frist i jumped, but then i realize what it was. I also kinda had a hard time finding the heartbeat. Usually i just go to the same spot and find it right away. Today it took me about 5 mintues to even find it, and when i did, it still wasnt to clear. I guess he/she's moving to a different location in there. As long as he/she act right on Wed. so they can look and see the gender, everything will be fine. I only have 2 more days to be 20 wks and to know if it's a boy or girl !!!!

Wed April 23rd 2008 (20wks 1d)

So i had my appointment today and.....it's a GIRL !! I'm so excited and suprise. From most people having a boy that was in this week, i thought i would to. But the dr said she was 100% sure that it was a girl. We couldnt get a good look at the face because of the postion she was in. Her face was turned to my back. They made me drink orange juice and walk around to see if we could get her to move around, but that didnt work. They even made me use the bathroom (empty my bladder) so the baby could have more room to move around. Nothing worked so we only got to see a side profile. The heartbeat was 145 and the weight was 12oz. I was 20wk 1day but she said i was measuring 20wk 3day. Two days up, not a big differnce but i'll take it. The due date is still the same though.

May 2nd 2008 (21wks 3dys)

Since week 20, i've been feeling my little girl move much more, It starts after 5pm and gets stronger at night. At my last appointment they told me that the 20wk ultrasound would be the last one that i'll have. So i really think im going to get a 3D ultrasound done at around 30wks. I just got to see my baby at least one more time before she's born. I also just bought her first outfits ! I got three little outfit and some hello kitty socks, She's not going to be able to wear them untill she's about 6-7 months, but i just had to buy it. I'm gonna look for her home coming outfit this month. I no already no what i want her to be in for the first time ! It's gonna be the little hello kitty socks with a hello kitty outfit (if i can find one for newborns). That's about all for today.

Sunday May 4, 2008 (21wks 5d)

Also in week 22! Time seems to be going kinda fast, but not fast enought. I cant wait till August get here, then i want had but a month left (plus thats my birthday)! This week wasnt really that good for me. Baby is fine and everything, kicking alot, letting me know everythings ok with her inside there. Just a little stuff between me and my bf. Anyways, all that matters is my lil girl is healthy and doing well ! I find comfort in going shopping for her, that seems to help me feel better, lol.

Monday May 5th 2008 (21wk 6dys)

Last day in week 21 and off to week 22 ! I'm feeling my little girl move as i'm writing this. Im wondering if the time i feel her kick is the time that she's up and is it going to be her awake time when she's born? Cause if so im good to go. She has a good sleep time going for now.

Saturday May 10th 2008 (22wk 4dy)

I think my lil girl is going to be stuborn! I feel her move all the time, but soon as i put my hands on my stomach to see if i can feel it from the outside, she stop moving completely. My boyfriend also tried to see if he could feel anything, but she didnt move at all. I'm planning to get a 3D ultrasound done maybe at 30wks. I called the place that does it and she said they like to do it around 26-28wks, just cause the baby still has room to move around.

Sunday May 18th 2008 (23wks 5dys)

I had the worst back pain ever 2 nights ago. It was so bad i was crying. It seemed like if i walk to hard it would hurt. It was just the right side of my body. I called the after hours like for the office i go to and told them what was going on. They said they would have a doctor call me back and no one ever called. I wanted to no if it was ok for me to take tylenol. I went to walk-mart at 1:30am to get some, got back home and was to scared to take it cause i didnt no if it was ok to do so. I took a hot shower and a bath to see if that would make me feel a little better. It did while i was in there, but when i got out i felt the pain again. Well, that's all about my back ach episode. Last night was the first time my boyfriend felt the baby move !! We where laying in bed and she was just kickin away, so i told my boyfriend to put his hand on my stomach to see if he could feel it. An sure enough, he could. At first i was telling him everytime she moved and he said he didnt feel anything, then next thing you no, he said "was that it". And i was like ya !! So that was pretty exciting.

Thursday May 22nd (24wks 2dys)

I'm having a little pain in my back and my leg this morning. I dont like pain at all so it's very uncomfortable for me. I scheduled my 3D ultrasound for June 19 but i dont no if im still gonna get it. My boyfriend and my moma says its justy a waist of money (it's $200) an we could use that on the baby room or something. So no i dont no if im going to get it or not. I really want to since my last ultrasound was at 20wks and im not getting anymore.

Thursday May 29th (25wks 3dys)

Had an appointment today. Said the reason why my back hurt might be because i have a bladder infection. Dr gave me some meds, an said that should stop it. I asked her about me reallly not showing and she said thats normal since this is my first and that i might not really show untill 28wks

Saturday June 7th (26wks 4dys)

Almost in week 27. Cant wait till im saying im in week 37 !! Everything is going good, instead of kicks now, seems like im feeling acual movement. Like something is just gliding along in me. I had my 3D ulrasound schedule for when i turned 28weeks but dont no if im still getting it. Boyfriend dont really want it Says it ruins the suprise of how the baby look. (whatever !!)

Friday June 13th (27wks 3dys)

So everything is going great. Yesterday i went crabbing and i think she likes the outdoors. She was active the whole day and right in the front of my stomach was really hard. I have my 3D ultrasound on the 19th of this month. So only 6 more days before i get to see my little girl again !!

Wednesday June 18th 2008 (28wks 1dys)

I go for my 3D ultrasound tomorrow ! I'm so excited and no i'm not gonna be about to sleep tonight. Tomorrow will be the last time i get to see she before she's born.

Thur. June 19th 2008 (28wk 2dys)

I had my 3d ultrasound this morning, and it was so amazing ! At first she had her hands and feet in her face (for the first 15 mintues), but after that she was good to go. She did alot of mixing up so i was having to turn from side to side. She even opened her eyese one time and was drinking(you could see the lil mouth moving up and down). They also told me that if i wanted to come back for another session later on it would only be $50 for the same 3d/4d package ! I was happy to her that so you no implanning to go back sometme in August ! That's all for now. I'm gonna look at these pic all day long !

Wednesday June 25th (29wks 1dy)

I have my glucose test in the morning. Lets hope everything comming back good. Nothing much else to say so i guess i'll be back tomorrow to say how my appointment went.

Thur June 26th (29wks 2dys)

Went to my appointment this morning and did the glucose test. I went in thinking i was going to pass out when i tasted the drink or something. Everyone made it seem so horrible. But it really wasnt that bad at all. At first it taste like orange soda, but after a while i noticed the difference. lol. Anyways, everything else went fine. I start going every two weeks now !! Woopppeee, guess im almost to the end of this preganacy!

Tuesday July 1st (30 wks)

I'm finally 30wks. Only 10 more weeks to go, only 7 more week till im full term, only 69 more days till my due date !!!

Sunday July 13th (31wks 5dys)

My weight is now 180.4. Guess im finally about to start gaining some weight. Hope i dont grain to much these last couple months cause i gained 4 lbs in two week ! Other than that, dr said baby is measuring on time. They will give me an estimated weight when i get a little farther along (i wanna no it now !!). Anyways, untill next time, good bye

Friday July 18th (32wks 3dys)

This weeks went by really slow, i hope the rest go faster than this. Guess i'll be working up untill the time i go in (or a week before).

Monday July 21 (32wks 6dys)

Almost to week 33. I bought (well my grandmomma did) my baby's crib this weekend ! Its not set up the right way yet, but i plan on going that later today. I also got a dresser this weekend to and just finished putting it together. So excited to finally get everything started.

Friday August 8th (35wks 3dys)

Had an appointment yesterday. I start going every week now. Can't get dr to give me weight of baby for nothing ! Everytime i ask her she dont do it. I even ask if she could write a note so when i go get my 3D/4D ultrasond, they can tell me. She said no they cant do that. She did check my cervix and baby is still sitting up very high. So i guess that means that i wouldnt be going in early :( I'm seeing a different dr next week cause my regular one isnt going to be there. So im gonna ask him/her and hopefully they give me a weight estimate ! Also my weight now is 188.6 lb

Tues. August 12th (36wks)

4 more days till my birthday, so excited

Monday August 25th (37wks 6dys)

My birthday was wonderful ! My mom gave me a suprise babyshower/birthday party. I also got another 3D done that morning. We got to see her smile and open her eyes. But im kinda worried cause it looks like the cord is around her neck. So im gonna take the photos to my appointment this week and show them to my dr and see what she says. Weight at last appt. was 190.4 !

summerisis - Friday, 20 June
Buenos Dias Mamacitas! This is my first update. Exciting! Sierra is officially in her 4th month as of yesterday. She's done some crazy stuff in the past couple of weeks -- rolled over; held her bottle; gone to the movie theater; and sucked her thumb. She went to the doctor's office today for her Polio and Hib vaccinations. No, she didn't cry. Not a peep. I keep telling the doctor that's she not in tune with her body (lol). Unfortunately, she's been very fussy since we got home though. If she's not eating or sleeping, she's crying and needs to be cuddled to relaxed. It's not a fun experience, that's for sure. Well, that's all. I'll post some pictures soon. I took 1200 yesterday so I'm still sorting through them! Take care and rub your bellies and hug your babies for us. Jeni and Sierra


upchurchmomma - Thursday, 19 June
You are kidding?! That is crazy! Well i am gonna ask anyway, maybe they will tell me here. I'm gonna be upset if they don't! thanks for lettin me know!! :)


upchurchmomma - Thursday, 19 June
p.s. did they tell you weight and length while you were there? If they did will you go to my page and let me know, i am dying to know if these estimates on here are close to the real thing! Thanks!


upchurchmomma - Thursday, 19 June
OMG, love the pix, what a gorgeous baby!! I cannot wait until we go to ours on july 2nd.....that is so cool!!! Congrats again...gonna be a knockout!! :)


jancfromsf - Tuesday, 17 June
I went for my 3d ultrasound on Sat. I just wanted to confirm the sex and it was cool knowin the weight! Drink juice 30 mins before, b/c the baby will be active and u could probably get great facial pix!


MKsAngel - Monday, 16 June
Good luck with your 3D. I hope she's positioned perfectly so you get to really see her and what she's up to inside lol. Only expect the best. Have you seen my photos? I look forward to my 3D sessions just because I see the changes so clearly. Wishing you the best sweetie.

Mine goes crazy if I drink cranberry juice, lol. Every time I drink it she's all over the place. I think it's funny because my hubby HATES IT! With mine if the baby isn't cooperating they will reschedule me to come back in but it will only be for a 15 min. session. So I want to make SURE she is moving around! I'll let you know if I hear anything else though! I can't wait til next Wed.!!! Who do you have going with you? My mom and best friend are going with me.


cmmbear - Friday, 13 June
Hey! You're 4D is the day after mine . They didn't tell me to do anything different for this one. But for my 20 week I drank a Coke before I went in to make sure she would move around and not be sleeping so we could see "the goods" so we'd know what we were having. I think I'll try to do that again just to make sure that she moves around enough for us to get some good shots ! I'm so excited as I'm sure you are also!
