Hello Ladies!! Well, let's see....I have been with my fiance for over 5 years, we have an angel baby boy (delivered him December 27, 2008) and we have a beautiful new daughter Izabella born on January 9th 2009. The journey that has brought me to motherhood has been life changing. This site has been invaluable during my journey. I love the ladies on here, the support and information they give and I love to read and share experiences with others-it is not only valuable for gaining knowledge but I also feel that it is good for the soul. I always have the parents of angel babies in my prayers for their healing as well as parents-to-be for healthy and happy pregnancies, and new parents on their journies with their new babies! ..

I also have a myspace page so feel free to add me!!! www.myspace.com/shoops68

Just got my test results back and they are negative, yay! That means the risks of anything happening the next 2-3 weeks are very minimal. I am contemplating whether or not to basically go on bed rest though, since my cervix is still shortening. My own doctor is not a fan of bed rest, but so many sites say it may prevent early labor when you have incompetent cervix. After all the baby is pushing less down on the cervix when you are off your feet. My mom arrived yesterday and is here for 7 weeks, so that is good. It means that either way I can take it easier. I am also waiting to hear back from my doctor about whether or not we can do progesterone injections which is known to help prevent preterm labor. I can't thank everyone enough for the kind and encouraging comments you sent me after my last post. I was so touched by the friendships I have here and so thankful for the prayers. Much love, Karin

Dear friends, please pray for me and baby. I had an extra ultrasound today that I personally requested because is has been 8 weeks since they checked my cervix. I am funneling - meaning my cervix is getting shorter. It is now about 2.7 whereas it was 3.5 8 weeks ago. Studies have shown that women with a cervix shorter than 2.5 has a 50% chance of going into early labor. My doctor took a swap to test for Fetal Fibronectin, a protein that is produced when the body is preparing for labor. I should have the test results by the end of the day. If they are positive there is a 15% chance I will go into labor the next 2 weeks. Please pray it will be negative!! Either way they will be keeping a close eye on me and I will have another ultrasound in two weeks. I am so glad I followed my heart and requested this extra scan, even if I don't have any labor symptoms. Of course I am anxiously waiting for these results - it will be a long afternoon. Please pray for me. xox Karin

Thank you for sympathizing!! Daizy getting up so much is why we started bringing her to bed with us....... and she sleeps through most of the night now (with us). We just can't seem to get her to go to sleep sooner than 11pm -- can you believe it!?! My baby is a PARTIER already!!
