I am a sahm of 3 with one on the way! This is my 6th pregnancy with two first tri losses. My son was born with multiple congenital heart defects and he just had his open-heart surgery on Nov 14, 2007. I was on bedrest due to a large sub-chorionic hemmorage which resulted in the loss of a twin this pregnancy, but we still have one baby, her name is Zailee and she was born 5-21-08 at 35w gestation. I love music and love being pregnant, I am sad that this is the last time I get to experience this but I know it will be for the best, and I am happy with 4 kids, 4 beautiful kids!!

It has been almost one week since I last threw up!! Yay I hope this means that I am done with the ms!I got the most wonderful book for christmas, it is Sylvia Browne `s Phsycic Children, I love love Sylvia and this book that I got I have only read 2 chapters so far but she says all the things I already knew and she just validated them for me, now I don `t feel so crazy! I have known about these things since I was a child and got teased so much for it esspecially growing up around Utah with all the LDS members not believing a lot of the things I had to say, I just feel so happy that it is true and I am not alone in knowing these things. I feel very validated now!

my internet has been down and I have been having major withdrawls from it! :( I am feeling a little sick and have been for the past few days, I am so hungray but at the same time sick to my tummy. I can `t wait to go to the OB on Fri, I really want an u/s but know it `s not going to happen so I have to wait another 2 weeks. I am really hoping that we can find out and that the baby cooperates!

17w prego with baby #3!!

17.5 week OB appt. Current mood: cheerful I went to the OB today and all sounds well, baby `s hr was 156 and s/he was wiggly, but we didn `t get an u/s, we get to do that on Feb 1st and hopefuly if baby cooperates we get to find out what the gender is!!!!My bp was 108/53 so not too bad, somewhat normal for me, the top number is a little high but not too much. They are running tests on my blood for the AFP test and they are also testing my thyroid and Iron levels because I have been so tired and it `s not getting any better, I am down another few oz today from 5weeks ago but at least I am not loosing a pound every other day anymore!I talked to the nurse Hailey (she is so cute!) and I have seen her for almost 4 years now and I asked her what her guess would be as far as the gender of the baby is concerned and she said she would guess girl, so that is 2votes for boy and 9 votes for girl so far!!! I hate waiting for the u/s it seems so far away now!! I don `t get to see my OB that same day, I usualy get lucky and can schedule the appts the same day at the same time but this time he didn `t have an opening on any of the days that the u/s tech had an opening so I go see him on the 5th and then go up to Primary Childrens Hospital to see the cardiologist for a fetal Echocardiogram on the 6th. I am a little scared about that one, I just hope that all is ok with this baby and that s/he doesn `t have the same problems that Xander does.I also talked to the Ob about tying my tubes this time and he said that would be TWO major surgeries at the same time because I would have the c-section like I always to and that is one big openining and then he would have to cut another hole in my belly just under my belly button, find my tubes, pull them out, tie them, cut them, then burn them, shove them back in and sew up the second hole, so it would be a lot for me to deal with and more time down so I can heal from two major surgeries at the same time, so he suggested that Justin come in and he will talk to him about just getting a vasectomy, because it is a 10min surgery, not major and it is easy to reverse, so we are all going in on the 5th to talk to my Ob about what we want to do.

18w pregnant with baby #4!!

Well tomorrow is the big day! Well one of them anyways, I get my big u/s!!! I can `t wait to find out what the gender is, my gut says girl but that only means that it is probably a boy because I have never been right LOL! I just hope that no matter what the gender the baby is healthy! I really want a girl though but would be happy with a boy too so it doesn `t really matter either way for me as long as it `s healthy! Only 14 more hours until my appt! Wish us luck that all things go well and that baby is healthy and cooperates so we can see gender without a doubt!!

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!

Well I am finally 24w and have my Ob appt today, I am feeling big but know that I `m really not as big as I feel right now. I am worried about my weight, I hope I didn `t gain too much in the past 4 weeks since my last visit and I hope that they measure my fundal height so I know just how big I really am. We are finally home from the hospital with Xander but I am so tired because of the tight schedule he is on, feeding every 3hr day and night, 3meds 3/day, 2meds 2/day, 1med every 8hr, and 1med 1/day. I hardly sleep anymore with his schedule but it is worth it to have him home and doing better than before. I really need to get on here and load in some new pictures! I have a lot of catching up to do!!!

Ok so it has been a long time since I have been able to update but here goes, just the past few weeks. At almost 32w I got kidney stones and was peeing blood and had to go on heavy meds to break up the stones and pass them, then a few days later at 32w 2d I had an OB appt where everything looked really well and my dr changed my EDD from the 25th of June to the 18th of June, so I get to deliver on the 12th of June, my dr already called and had the OR put on hold for me sometime that day, they will let me know what time they have open the day before the c-section. So now I am 34w2d but so ready to deliver my baby girl, who's name BTW is Zailee Avylon Lillyann, we did get to confirm that she is in fact a she at my 28w u/s where she measured 29w 6d, that is part of the reason that my OB changed my EDD because she is measuring 10 days big and I am measuring 2w ahead of my old EDD, too bad he wouldn't just move my EDD up more, I would love to deliver on June 7!! Xander is doing much better since being out of the hospital and is on a better schedule now wich includes sleeping through the night, no more night time feedings for us!!! I am HUGE, Avy is in my cervix and up under my sternum and it makes it hard to breath, walk, or move at all, I am so ready to have her right NOW!!!!
