Nov. 6th, 2007~ 19 weeks 4 days~

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!

Abbygail ElizabethAnne

due March 29th, 2008

We still can't believe it! We prayed for her and are so thrilled! She's a healthy 10 ozs. and 5 inches from head to hiney and her heartbeat was 144! Mommy has gained 18 pounds so far, blood pressure was 122/77-awesome! She was sucking her thumb and opening her little mouth! I am in love! Abbygail has no idea how much love and excitment is awaiting her arrival! Big brother Keith is at school, so he'll has a nice surprise when he gets home today! I'm going to walk to the end of the driveway and tie pink ribbons on the handlebars of his bike! We all thought "she" was a "he" for 2 months. On our sonogram at 11 weeks we all saw "alittle something", but the Technician said she would save her opinion until next time-today-SURE GLAD SHE DID! All of those "predictor" tests and tales about the heartbeat rates were wrong! They all said it was a boy!

What to do with the beautiful quilt I just made?

Oh, Abbygail, my Abbygail! Mommy loves you!

Friday Nov. 9th~ Abbygail has been kicking quite a bit. Felt her squirming around (more like pops) about 3 weeks ago, but it wasn't every day. This week shes been moving more, well not really, it's just that shes getting bigger and stronger. Last night my hubby and I were laying in bed and I had my hands on my belly (which is all the time) and she started cheerleading. Tim felt her kick a couple times~He was soo excited and kept his hand on my belly for a long time just waiting for her to perform again. I'll be sending back the HB doppler I rented soon, cuz I'll be feeling her more often. I just wish this would be over soon, turn up the clocks. I'm feeling F-A-T!!(might be cuz I am!) Today my hands feel swollen, oh lordy, its too soon to start this. I didn't swell up with fluid until about the 7 month with my son~*SIGH* I'm also getting bored with food. I'm hungry, but nothing is striking my fancy-just blah blah. I kind of feel like I'm eating to survive some days-wonder if anyone else feels like that. I know I have to eat, and I'm hungry, but nothing looks good or tempting. I've gained 18 pounds as of Tuesday, so who knows how much I've gained now.....

WELL~I'm back from my doc appt. I'm 23 wks 4 days, BUT I am measuring (or should I say Abbygail is) almost 27 weeks - from pubic bone to top of uterus, should be 1 centimeter per week....well-Abbygail is a BIG baby so far. *lovely* Her heartbeat was 158, which is fine. I have NOT gained 25 pounds as I thought - I HAVE GAINED 30 - YES-no typo there ladies-30-T-H-I-R-T-Y POUNDS!I will soon out weigh my husband. My doc isn't concerned, as I gained 55 with my son and no problems with him, just that he came 5 1/2 wks early. He also said that's just more for me to lose. He recommeded I go get a flu shot, so I will. I asked his opinion on Listeria from deli meats-buy the pre-packaged Oscar Mayer stuff, NOT sliced at the counter. I asked about Aspartame-I read alot of controversy on that subject-he said not to worry-drink up that Crystal Light. I go back in 4 weeks, but right before I go back I get to have that yummy glucose test. YUCK! I do so remember that-I drank this orange very heavy sugary syrup and had blood drawn an hour later-I was gagging!!!. After that my appts go to every 2 WEEKS-NOW I KNOW I'M GETTING CLOSE!!!! Oh-It's all coming back to me now! I'm excited and I really can't wait to be NOT PREGNANT anymore! That just might be one of the first things I say.

MARCH 10th - 6:30 pm

7 lbs 3 ozs 21 inches

head: 13 inches chest: 13 1/2 inches

ABBYGAIL ARRIVES~~~~birth story to be posted at a later date when Mommy can handle to re-live the natural birth she had no choice but to have........

Hey my sweet Laura,
I totally miss you. How is Abby? Keith? Tim? and most importantly, how are YOU? I know you've been online 'cause it says so on your page. So if you're not up for posting/responding/commenting whatever, just know that I am thinking of you lots. Kisses XXXXOOOO


Jo-Mama - Monday, 23 June
Hey Laura! I miss you! I hope everything is going well in Maryland. Kisses to Abbygail!


BabyHelton - Saturday, 14 June
I will never lose that loving feeling for you!!!!!!!!! Things are going pretty well. Sleep is the issue. He will sleep and only get up once at night, but there's a catch. He has to be with me or the hubby. I am trying to train him to sleep in the crib by hisself. Other than that, though, things are going well. He smiles, laughs, and he's potty trained. Haha j/k. How are YOU and miss Abigail?

That sounds like fun, I wish I could do more summer stuff with Jamison...Next year!


momoffive - Wednesday, 11 June
I know companies like Gap and Parents magazine have beautiful babie contests all the time. You should seriously look into in. That picture is priceless! Winners can win things like college scholarships and stuff. A friend of mine entered her toddler and won a baby store gift certificate of some sort. I can't remember exactly what it was.


flgrl - Tuesday, 10 June
 Awwww, I remember you from the chat room. amazing how time flies doesnt it? i remember being so jealous of you b/c you had her earlier than us lol... shes so pretty :) i


merseyloo1 - Tuesday, 10 June
She is so cute! Those sunglasses! Love them.


Binkybobo - Tuesday, 10 June
 omg! to cute!


momoffive - Tuesday, 10 June
 oh my gosh, this picure is adorable! You should enter it into a beautiful baby contest for sure! What a cutie pie she is!!!


mom2boy - Tuesday, 10 June
 I love this one! Do you put sun screen on her? I am just curious because I would love to do more out door stuff with Jamison but I am afraid to put sun screen on him so I just keep him covered.


Jo-Mama - Tuesday, 10 June
Jeez, 150. I haven't weighed that since Drew and I were first dating. I used to smoke then. But I quit over 4 years ago and haven't been below 160 since. Oh well. Whatever.
Malone is a superstar. She has been so good lately - lots of good sleep, lots of funny smiles. It's so great.
I'm so glad I went to prenatal aquafit because I get together with those new moms every two weeks now. It's so nice to be with people in the same situation. I'm thinking of signing up for a Salsa Babies class. I think it would be fun.
I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better. And I love those pics of Abby in her swimsuit - so cute!
Gotta grab Malone out of her swing. Later!


roxapit - Sunday, 8 June
Good to see you back!!!!! Abbygail is beautiful, of course!!!


mom2boy - Friday, 6 June
Good to hear from you! I am doing good. I have been a little sad as my maternity leave is almost over and the idea of leaving him is much much harder than I thought but other than that me, Jamison and dad are doing great. Jamison usually sleeps 5 to 7 hours a night nurses and goes back to sleep for a few more.

I posted new professional pictures on my page of Kayla. They were taken at 5 weeks old


Jo-Mama - Wednesday, 28 May
I've said it before and I'll say it again - you can tell me all your problems and I'm totally happy to listen! Get it all out! I want to hear it all, even the bad stuff.

I can't believe all the trouble you've had postpartum - it's so unfair. It certainly doesn't make caring for a newborn any easier, I imagine. I'm not surprised that you are standing strong and pulling through. Little Abbygail probably gets the very best of you, and then there's not much left to give yourself. I hope the doctors sort it all out and get you on the proper meds. I send you good vibes al the time and I am thinking about you tons.

Malone is just awesome. She's 8 weeks (already?) and she's a good little girl. She's gotten over her gassy phase and now she's sleeping well and smiling lots. This morning we slept together in my bed and it was just so wonderful. I just want to eat her up.

I have to start taking Rebif (a drug for my MS) on Monday which means no more breastfeeding. I've been giving Malone a few bottles a day to get her used to them and to get my milk production to slow down. I'll use my frozen milk bank and then will switch to formula. I plan on using PC formula (I think it's only in Canada). So you use powder or liquid? I bought both to try them out. I think Drew is looking forward to feeding her.

I've been feeling OK - having a few MS moments. Sometimes my finers go numb and my vision gets blurry. But nothing major. I'm glad to be starting back on my drugs.

Well, I have laundry to fold (ooooh, exciting). Take care Laura!

pokerprincess - Tuesday, 13 May
Hey I entered Kyle in a local radio station Baby Idol contest. If you get a chance do you mind voting for him?! I hope all is well. It's at http://www.hot995.com/pages/babyidolvote_kh-ky.html

He is under Kyle-Alexandria

Thank you so much! Hope all is well with you and yours!


pokerprincess - Saturday, 10 May
