My profile
April 29, 2008 (6 weeks) :::: I am a 28 year-old first time mommy-to-be. Me and daddy are soooo excited. So much that we are worried that something will go wrong :( I found out I was pregnant April 24, 2008! The doctor put me at 5 weeks then, but I think she was going by the start of my last mp which was March 15th. Anyway, I was thrilled at the news. She did an ultrasound and we saw a little flicker of a heartbeat! :) She also tested my progesterone levels and said they were drifting so she put me on natural progesterone suppositories, once a day at bedtime. I have been spotting since the time I was suppose to come on period- not heavy or red, just brown and it comes and goes. No cramping or backache either. I was told that the spotting is ok and unless it becomes heavy and red and I start cramping then I should be ok. But because I am spotting a little, my doctor is taking precautionary measures. I am really hoping these suppositiories will help sustain my pregnancy. I've never been pregnant before and now I read all these stories on here about m/c's after 9 and 16 weeks and even further, and it's terrifying! I mean, to get to know the baby for all that time and share your joy with everyone, then lose it?...I just can't imagine....I know nothing can be done to really prevent a m/c, but I have put all of my faith and hope in GOD for the health of this baby and myself. I pray for the baby every night and thank God for him every morning. I talk to him, telling him to hang in there cuz people want to meet him. I love this baby so much already, I just can't bare the thought of losing it. So regardless of what the doctors say, I am faithful and I believe that God can work MIRACLES and this baby will be completely fine, so I look forward to seeing him (or her ;) in December; healthy and happy and beautiful!
May 6, 2008 (7 weeks) :::: I feel pregnant- all day sickness, moodswings, itchy nipples, tender, heavy breasts, and my pelvis is killing me! But I welcome all of it because I know that's a good sign! Since I've been on the progesterone, my levels have gone up and the spotting has stopped significantly. My doc's plan is to keep me on it until 10 weeks but I think I wanna go further than that. I still see spotting ocassionally, maybe once or twice every few days, but it's nothing like it was and I was told that was normal and as long as it's not heavy, red and accompanied by cramping, I should be fine, especially since my levels have gone up. I go back for my duedate and another checkup May 15th, but based on the start of my last mp, i-am-pregnant.com gave me a duedate of December 20th!
May 15, 2008 (8 weeks) :::: I'm sooooo happy to say that my appointment went well! That was thee LONGEST appointment ever! I felt like I was at an interview! LOL! At first she did the ultrasound where she tried to hear the baby's heartbeat (just by putting the little thingamajiggy on top of my stomach), but she couldn't hear anything. So I got nervous! She said it was normal not to hear anything this soon, but you know us moms-to-be- we worry about EVERY LITTLE THING, especially when I know there was a heartbeat at 5 weeks. So for my own peace of mind, I talked her into letting me get another vaginal ultrasound and she said ok (whewww!!!!) The US tech didn't even have to do it vaginally; we both were able to see the heartbeat and the baby and he (or she ;) is waaay bigger than they were at 5 weeks! I could even make out the head and body this time! She said I'm measuring at 8.5. weeks and my duedate is right where I thought- December 20th! I feel soooo much better knowing that everything is ok. My 12-week appointment is June 12th and I'm feeling much better knowing that baby is still in there, growing and floating around!
May 31, 2008 (11 weeks) :::: Well, thankfully, morning sickness has eased up alot. My breasts are still a little tender, mostly in the morning, and my nipples will start to itch if I slightly brush them against something, but for the most part, things are ok. I think I'm starting to ease out of the obsession of losing the baby and I'm happy that I'm a little more calm. I'm never completely worry free because it's only the start of week 11, but I've gotten a lot of reassurance from mommies-to-be on here and just continuing to have faith is making me stronger. I pray for the baby everyday and I'm sure they'll pull through JUST FINE! I have one more appt with my OB here in Milwaukee, then I'll be moving to Arlington to be with daddy :). That appt is on June 12 (just shy of 13 weeks) and I pray that all goes well and things are right where they should be. Oh, I stop taking the progesterone this week (Tuesday is the last day for it) and while I'm a little nervous about that, just hoping it doesn't interfere with the baby/placenta's development, I still have the same faith that I've always had. God bless!
JUNE 4, 2008 (11 weeks) :::: I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!! I HAVE TO GET ONE OF THOSE BABY HEART MONITOR THINGS SO I CAN HAVE PEACE OF MIND IN BETWEEN DOCTOR VISITS!!! SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME IT'S WORTH IT!!!!!
JUNE 12, 2008 (12 weeks) :::: Today was my 12-week appointment! Baby's heartbeat was 162 and all is well! I didn't get to do an ultrasound, I guess because there were no concerns; no bleeding or cramping for me. Doc did tell me that I need to drink more fluids and I lost 3 pounds! I can believe it because I really didn't have an appetite much, but I've noticed it picking up quite a bit lately so hopefully I'll gain back what I lost and add more as the pregnancy progresses. I invested in a heart doppler because I move to Texas next week which means I won't be able to see a doctor probably til next month, so the doppler will keep me in tune with the baby until I can get another appointment. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to successfully ending my 1st trimester and moving into the 2nd! I'll be 13 weeks Saturday! Woo hoo!!!
JULY 2, 2008 (15 weeks) :::: Well, I am officially a TEXAN! I am down here loving every bit of it! Daddy is taking good care of me and baby and I'm soaking up all of his AC! I will be 16 weeks (well, 4 months) on Saturday and this time seems to be going sooo fast! I keep complaining about not really showing or feeling the baby kick yet, but I know when it happens, it's gonna go by so quick so I'm just trying to savor every day of the pregnancy! Everytime I listen for the heartbeat, I hear the baby just moving around in there! All I can do is smile. Life is sooo good right now; GOD is so wonderful and everything that I have I am so thankful for. It's amazing what God can do for you if you just have a little faith! As for other baby news, I see a new doctor July 23rd and hopefully they'll give me an ultrasound so we can see what we're having. At almost 19 weeks, I'm sure you can tell by then. But for the most part, all is well! I'll be back soon!
July 23, 2008 (18 weeks) :::: I had my first appointment today with my doctor since relocating. A male OBGYN. Never had one and was very nervous but his nurse was nice and he was extremely nice and understanding. I was comfortable so I'm gonna stay with him. I declined all those screeings they offer; I hear too much about how what they say is 'possible' could or could not really happen and it just seems to add additional worry to the pregnancy. So I've decided to trust God the way I have all this time. At 5 weeks, I didn't even think my baby would make it this far, now here I am almost 5 months and God is still taking care of my little one, so I believe that my faith will continue to keep this baby safe and healthy. I find out what I'm having July 31st! At this point, a boy or girl doesn't matter, I just want them to tell me everything looks healthy and normal. Also, I felt movement! Well, I think I may have been feeling it for a while, but I never paid attention until I listened with the doppler- the same time I heard the baby moving, I felt it! From that point on I was able to tell when the baby was moving! I can't wait to feel more kicks!
July 31, 2008 (19 weeks) :::: THE BABY IS HEALTHY AND..........IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!! We were hoping for a boy, but just to know she's healthy is good enough for us! We have NO names picked out for a girl, so any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Oh, the initials will be T.L.W. so keep that in mind! I'm so excited! I can finally start saying "she" instead of "it" or "baby". It was funny because the ultrasound tech said "it's a girl" and I said "no it's not" and then she opened her legs!!! LOL! It was kinda like she was saying "since you don't believe him, see for yourself!" LOL! She's got character ALREADY! :)
August 17, 2008 (22 weeks) ::: I finally can say that I really feel true kicks and punches! It seems that at the start of 20 weeks, I started to feel more than just a flutter. It's AMAZING in every sense of the word! Sometimes, I can just look at my stomach and see her kick or punch! It kinda tickles! I LOVE IT! She seems to move more in the morning and at night, around 10pm, but then sleep allll day long....she's probably giving me a taste of what it's gonna be like when she gets here! Anyway, everything is going great with the pregnancy! I go to the doc for my monthly appointment on Wednesday. Hopefully he'll have all good news for me and baby girl! And no, we still don't have a name in mind! :( But we are hard at work thinking!
September 6, 2008 (25 weeks) :::: I am now 6 months! This time is flying so fast! Babygirl moves around alot in there! Sometimes her kicks pack a powerful punch, and sometimes she tickles me! I love it! We only have 3 months left before she arrives and we don't even have a name! PLEASE give suggestions! We want it to start with a T, middle initial with an L...any ideas would be greatly appreciated! We have NO baby clothes or other items, but his mom is sending us our first batch of gifts this week! We're so excited!
September 10, 2008 (25 weeks) :::: Her name will be Tori, but we will spell it Tauri!!! I am sooooo excited to finally call her by her name! It is an English name and it means "Conqueror/Victorious". We like the meaning because she has come so far; we thought we were going to lose her in the beginning; she kept scaring me with all the bleeding, but she has definitely proved herself worthy of her name! :)
September 25, 2008 (27 weeks) :::: I just read a story about a lady who had her baby already- she was born at 29 weeks; 2 pounds and 6 ounces. I'm only 27 weeks....BUT the fact that this little girl made it reassures me that even if Tauri were to come now, she would be just fine. Of course I want her to stay in there and fatten up as much as possible and not show up until December, but if God says so, she will arrive sooner which only means I'll have to trust him even harder and I CAN DO THAT! :) But for now, I'm fine...I'm VERY relieved that her baby is doing well....... and Tauri is ok too....she still moves alot, some days more than others but atleast she still moves! :) And if she's not moving enough to MY satisfaction, I pull out the heart monitor just to make sure she's ok! :)
October 2, 2008 (28 weeks) :::: Today was my doctor's appointment. I am almost 29 weeks! I want to go home to Milwaukee for my babyshower and he advises against me leaving after 32 weeks. The appointment went well! I get an ultrasound around 32 weeks to see how big she is; my uterus is measuring perfect and Tauri is moving quite a bit. I only do kickcounts if she hasn't moved in a while and it seems that at the start of week 28, she KNEW the kickcount started and she was moving EVERY HOUR! LOL! She seems to roll around or ball up more than anything. He also said that my slight anemia won't affect her as long as I keep taking the iron pills; she was breech at 21 weeks, but doc said even now she has plenty of time to turn so he wouldn't worry. I guess we'll see where she is at the ultrasound. Let's see, what else....oh! Her granny Myra (dad's mom) has already bought her stroller and carseat. I tried to put up a pic of the stroller and it was taking forever to download, but to give you an idea, the carseat snaps right into it! It's just like a base with wheels! She has sent her clothes and just ordered her basinet lastnight! I'm soooo excited and clearly she is too! Tauri will be the first grandbaby on both sides (as well as me and her father's first child) so she's gonna be truly blessed! My mom plans to get all the things granny Myra doesn't so at some point, I might have to tell her to stop buying stuff so that other people can have a turn! LOL! Soooo............in short, me and Tauri are doing great!!!!!! :) (Oh, and I'm thinking about not posting in those chat rooms anymore. People NEVER reply to my responses so there's really no point. If I have questions, I'll probably just go directly to someone's page from now on...)
October 8, 2008 (29 weeks) :::: Hooray!!! My babyshower will be back home November 2nd. I'll be 33 weeks then. It's a week beyond doctors orders, but still alot less closer to 40 so I pray that she stays put, atleast until I get back home. Her granny sent ANOTHER batch of gifts the other day and the basinet will arrive shortly. Once I get that, I'll take more pics. As for me, I feel great! Tauri loves to play these days and from what I read, for the next few weeks, she should be alot more active during the day so that's a good thing! Sure, those kicks and rolls hurt sometimes, but I wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING! She moves most of the day and whenever she hasn't moved for a while, I pull out the doppler to check on her. I'm suppose to return it in November, but I think I'll keep it until she arrives.
October 16, 2008 (30 weeks) :::: Another doctor's appointment today and all went well! He said as long as there aren't any concerns, I won't get another ultrasound until 37 weeks :( I wanted to see how big my baby girl has gotten! :( But I guess it's a good thing since there are no concerns. He wrote me an excuse so that I can fly for my babyshower so that the airport won't give me any problems. Flying on Midwest, I'm good to go as long as I'm not in my 9th month; they said it'd be a good idea to bring proof though. Also, he said not to worry about a stillbirth and all that stuff that had me TERRIFIED the last few days. I LOVE reading about pregnancy stuff on this site, but sometimes I get TOO curious and read into all the negative stuff, then I panic and scare myself! He said it was possible but very rare at this point and everything is fine with my pregnancy so enjoy it! He suggested I look more into cord blood banking and he also told me that I am ok to work all the way up until delivery as long as everything progresses normally and I'm not too fatigued or tired; which in that case, he'd allow me to take off work sooner. I was kinda hoping he'd give me a definite cut-off date so I could say "PEACE OUT!" to that job but I guess not. Besides, with me not working for atleast 6 weeks, I guess I need to work as much as I can now so I can save some money to hold me over til I go back to work again. Daddy's helping, but we have a mortgage and house bills; I don't want to burden him with MY carnote, cellphone, insurance and student loan- that stuff is just in MY name so I don't want that to fall on him. Anyway, all is well with me and Tauri and I just wanted to give an update!
October 28, 2008 (32 weeks) :::: I was wondering if I would ever get to this point....I'm getting scared....the whole baby thing is starting to feel VERY real now and soon, I'll be solely responsible for someone else's LIFE. That's deep....how will I know what she wants/needs and when to give it to her? How will I know what to do if she gets sick? What about time management? She'll come before EVERYTHING I do and how do I take care of her and still make sure I'm ok- eating, sleeping, etc? Alot of people I talk to said they had moments when they broke down after getting home with the baby cuz they felt overwhelmed. Does everyone go through that? I'm scared of failing or not being a good mother. I've been praying to God EVERYDAY for her and that he gives me what I need to be the mother I should be for her but I'm still nervous/scared....how will I know what to do for her? This isn't like I'm just babysitting for a night or 2 and I can give her back...she's mine, 100%...I haven't taken any parenting classes either. Do I need to do that? I AM SOOOO SCARED.....
November 4, 2008 (33 weeks) :::: I'm back from my visit home to Milwaukee! It was wonderful and not nearly as cold as it usually is this time of year! I am sooo blessed to have such loving family and friends! Tauri got a TON of gifts and my mom is shipping it all to me this weekend! I was able to shove some of the keepsakes into my luggage so I could share them with daddy. I guess now it's just a waiting game! So far, 2 women I know have gone into labor or started to dilate at 37 weeks...I hope to go closer to her duedate so that my mom can be here when she arrives (she's not planning on arriving until 12/19- Tauri is due on the 20th)! The only things she still needs is a baby monitor, tub, diaper bag (I know, of all the people at the shower, not 1 diaper bag! LOL), pacifiers, and playtex bottles and drop-ins. I need to get a breast-pump and all things associated with nursing. Other than those things, Tauri is ready for her arrival! :) I will post pics soon! (Also, Tauri didn't have a theme before the shower but she seemed to get ALOT of Carebear items so that's her theme now! "The Carebears"! And it's sooo cute! :)
November 6, 2008 (33 weeks) :::: I had a doctor's appointment today and he said I was measuring big and he thinks Tauri will be a pretty big baby...I go for an ultrasound next week so I guess I get that freebie I've been wanting! But I hope everything is ok with her and she doesn't try to come too soon before her time. I'll be 37 weeks November 29th, so hopefully she'll hold out atleast til then. Oh and I'm still gonna post some pics of the shower but it'll only be few. It takes FOREVER for me to download pics to this site! I'll let everyone know how the ultrasound goes!
November 13, 2008 (34 weeks) :::: I just got back from my ultrasound appointment! Tauri is 5.9 pounds! The sonographer said everything looks great! Her heartbeat was 149 (120-160 is normal) and I got a view of the umbilical cord and the placenta as well and everything is right where it should be. It was funny because as he was trying to get a view of her face, she covered it with her hand and wouldn't move it! When she did, she stuck her thumb in her mouth! All I could do was laugh! I'm glad to know she's ok in there! Also, I experienced my first episode of Braxton Hicks contractions last night! My stomach tightened and it felt like bad, trapped gas and menstrual cramps at the same time! HORRIBLE! I had to stop walking when it happened. It happened like 4 times in 30 minutes, and lasted about 10 seconds each time. After that, I didn't feel it anymore. People say they'll get stronger and last longer as I get further along....I know it's gonna hurt, but seeing my baby on that screen today makes me anxious to experience all the things that will come with her birth; as long as she arrives healthy, beautiful and happy, I'm sure the pain will be well worth it! :)
November 20, 2008 (35 weeks) :::: Today's doc appointment showed me how close I am to seeing my baby! :) I'll be 9 months on Saturday so I start seeing him weekly now. Today, he did the strep B test (or whatever it's called to check for a bacteria that can harm the baby when she's born) and he checked my cervix. I thought it was a little soon to do that, but I guess for his office, 9 months is when they start checking weekly. NO dilation which means Tauri won't be here anytime soon and I kinda figured that cuz she still sticks her foot up in my ribs! LOL! Anyway...I get another ultrasound Monday cuz I've gained another pound (which makes a total of 17 for the whole pregnancy) and he wants to see if it's me or the baby. She was 5.9 pounds last week! I don't think she's put on a whole pound in a week, but we'll see! So I get ANOTHER freebie! :) Let's see, what else...oh, I haven't had many braxton hicks; a few today that I noticed but that's it. The body pillow seems to be working for my pelvis and groin at night so that's good; and I had a migraine the other day that had lasted about 3 days. The doctor had me come in on Tuesday so he could check my urine and blood pressure for something called Toxemia. When we ruled that out, he gave me a magical prescription that took the migraine away!!! I just LOVE my doc! Anyway...just wanted to give an update! Me and Tauri are doing great and I'll continue to post weekly updates here so feel free to drop by! I hope everyone is doing well!
November 26, 2008 (36 weeks) :::: Doc appointment today- my results came back as me being a carrier for that Group B Strep or whatever it's called. He said not to be alarmed; they'll just give me antibiotics when I go into labor. I'm a little concerned, but hey, I know who my God is and I've trusted him all this time for the health of this baby...no reason to start doubting him now! I haven't dilated AT ALL and Tauri is still pretty far up; she was in my ribs last night so I didn't think I would've dilated any. I haven't had anymore Braxton Hicks or ANY pressure down there. I wondered if I should be feeling more uncomfortable by now, but I guess I should count my blessings! Lots of women are miserable by now! I'm just anxious to see "mama's pooh pooh" (I don't know why I call her that, but whenever I talk to her, that's what I say! LOL!) Anyway, so she's not coming anytime soon which means I can enjoy my 5-day vacation from work, finish washing her clothes and putting away her things, and me and my fiance' can just enjoy the last few weeks of freedom! LOL! Oh yeah, they gave him a babyshower at work today! Cake and all! I can't wait to see what else she got! Be back next week!
November 28, 2008 :::: FINALLY 37 WEEKS!!!!! YOU CAN COME OUT NOW TAURI!!!!! :):):) WE'RE ALL READY TO MEET YOU!!!!!!
December 3, 2008 (37 weeks) :::: I DILATED 2CM! Tauri is finally making some progress and I am soooo excited! My doctor is going out of town for Christmas, so if Tauri doesn't come on her own by the 16th, he's going to induce me by my duedate (the 20th)! So the good thing is that I won't be OVER due! Next week, I get yet another ultrasound to see how big she is- that will determine the day I get induced! I'm sooo excited and it's really starting to settle in! My baby girl will be here in about 2 weeks! I hope she comes on her own before the 16th, so that I'll know she's REALLY ready, but whenever she makes her appearance, I'll be thrilled! I can't wait to meet her! Will update again next week!
December 6, 2008 (38 weeks) :::: I JUST LOST MY MUCOUS PLUG! Still no action though. Doc said not to panic; if I start contracting closely, bleeding or my water breaks, then I need to come in, but for now, it could be anywhere from a few days to another week before anything happens. So....I guess it's just a waiting game now! I haven't had any contractions or anything, but she does seem to be pushing down quite a bit. Will keep you all updated! :)
December 10, 2008 (38 weeks) :::: I'M BEING INDUCED TUESDAY 12/16!!! That's the good news! The bad news is that, even though I lost my mucous plug Saturday and was already 2cm dilated, I haven't dilated anymore...but atleast I'll have my baby here next week! I'm soooo excited! Oh, and I'm not getting induced for medical reasons at all. My doctor is going out of town for Christmas (leaving right before my duedate which is 12/20) and I've gotten spoiled to his care so I don't want any other doctor delivering Tauri, which is what will happen if she doesn't come on her own before he leaves. So I agreed to the induction and he's inducing me 4 days before my duedate. I can't believe this time came so quick! I was reading back in my profile at some of the old dates and I remember feeling all that fear and worry. Now I'm just sooo excited to see her and I feel like God has really carried me through this pregnancy; he has watched over my little angel, protecting and keeping her safe in my womb; allowing her to grow and thrive; preparing her for her entrance into this world...he is AWESOME and I am so overjoyed and thankful that I get to have this experience, especially when a doctor once told me I never would...GOD IS TRULY AMAZING and I hope NONE of you ever forget that it's GOD that keeps your babies healthy and safe so that they arrive here in good health...even if you all you do is a quick 3-second "thank you Jesus" when they come out the womb, please acknowledge him for your healthy babies because there are so many women that will not be as fortunate as we are. Please keep me and Tauri in your prayers as we prepare for one of the most amazing journeys God has ever created for woman....Love and blessings to all for beautiful, happy and healthy babies and I will be back next week with Tauri's birth story! :) (oh, and thanks to those of you that ARE excited for me, but I have decided to stay out of those forums. I'll keep my conversation and good news between the people in my network. After I made the induction announcement in week 38, people were sending me private messages saying that I first-time moms who get induced end up needing c-sections and I shouldn't do it because it's not natural. Really, I don't need to hear that crap. As a first-time mom, I have enough worries and if you're not gonna support me or be excited WITH me or encourage me that everything will be fine and NOT to worry or believe everything you read will happen to you, then please just keep it to yourself. I got myself through 9 months of worry and now I have a whole new set of worries after the baby comes...please don't make it worse for me. I'm sure if my doctor was really concerned that inducing me 4 days before my duedate would harm me or the baby, then he wouldn't do it. I trust his judgement because I have trusted God to put me in his care...I'll be back sometime next week with a successful birth story! May God bless you all to have a safe, healthy and happy labor, delivery and baby! :)
December 21, 2008 (40 weeks):::: SHE'S HERE!!! First of all, my thanks goes to God for giving me a healthy baby. without him, the birth of my baby would not have happened. Regardless of how she arrived, I'm glad she came, healthy and happy...Well, I arrived at the hospital for induction at 7am on December 16th. At 8am, the doctor broke my waterbag and adminstered pitocin. I didn`t want the pitocin at first, but then he explained to me why it was needed so I didn`t argue with him. I was still 2cm when I got to the hospital, but by noon I had got to 4cm and decided on an epidural. To all of those who do an all natural childbirth with NO drugs...I tip my hats off to you! I wanted to do it, but it just didn`t work. By the time I got to 4cm, the contractions were every 2 minutes and coming really close and hard so I told my mom to call the anesthesiologist. After that, labor was a breeze; I was dilating 1 cm per hour. Around 7pm, the doc came to check me and I had got to 7cm. I thought I was doing good but he said I should have progressed more by then. Tauri just was not moving down like she should`ve been. He said he`d check again at 9pm and if I hadn`t dilated more or she hadn`t moved down, he was gonna do a c-section. I cried, mama prayed and Terry was just like `I just want my baby here`. So at 9pm, just my luck, I was STILL only 7cm and Tauri was NOT budging. We all said a prayer (me, mom, Terry and brother) and they wheeled me off surgery. About 30 minutes of tugging and she was out. Tauri Lyniah Warren was born at 10:00pm; 6lbs, 11 oz, 19.5 inches. Beautiful dark brown hair and looks just like her father. The total labor was 14 hours and even though I`m in pain from that funky c-section, I would do it all over again just for her. God bless the rest of your pregnancies!
