So i havent written on here in a super long time so i figure i will drop a little update. So far everything is running smoothly. I had a few minor contractions at 29 weeks, but nothing serious. I am aiming to have the baby the 4th of july. I will be 37 weeks then and thats the safe zone for having my home birth.

I plan on video taping the whole birth and will post pictures as well. Call me crazy but i feel as thou it is a very natural thing to go thorough labour and i know that I am ready and can do it with out the use of any drugs. We were made to do this and i will embrace that. I believe i have a very powerful mind, and when you put mind over matter you can get through anything, labour doesnt last forever. In the end i will be happy, and proud that i did it the way i wanted to!

I know that with my family there to support me that this is going to be an amazing experiance.

Well we just got home from our ultrasound and ITS A BOY!!!

We are so excited for boy number 2 to come! His big brother is so excited for him to be here! Only 22 more weeks to go!

Well, here i am going for number 2!! The first one was very very difficult as i went into preterm labour at 29 weeks. That was soo scary, I was in the hospital for 2 days and we got the labour to stop. I had injections in my legs of surfactant to help mature the babies lungs. Good thing they did that as 3.5 weeks later i began having pains in my tummy, they were normal, but different, i didnt think anything was wrong, slept on it. The next day i had them still and called the midwife and went to the office. She checked me and when she did there was a lot of blood that was trapt in the uterus as the babies head was blocking it from coming out. We went stright to the hospital, and i had my baby 2 hrs later. Talk about terrifying... I had a natural birth with no drugs. Thats how i wanted it.

Now with my second i am hoping to go on bedrest early so that i can avoid any bad things from happening this time. I am planning on having my baby at home as long as i make it to 37 weeks then i should be able to do so.

I have an amazing family and am so excited to be adding this new member!

Hey everyone, just a quicky update. Olivia has an appt yesterday with the Physio Dept at the hospital. we got a new brace or her that we can take on and off as we please which is great. her feet will be normal soon. we had the option of leaving well alone but i didnt want to take the risk of her not being able to walk properly, there would be a chance that she would walk on the side of her foot instead of flat footed. as mothers, we dont want there to be any reason for them to be picked on so we chose to use the brace. i havent uploaded a pic of the new one yet as i havent been feeling well. depression is setting in along with the anxiety. somedays it all seems too much!! Anyhow, we go back to the Physio on the 21st and to teh Audiology for more hearing tests on the 24th. wish us lucky. take care all!! love amanda

Well my internet has been playing up i havent been able to update you all on Olivias situation. Its finally working so i will update you all now. her hearing test has to be redone on the 24th july but so far we know that she has low-moderate loss in her left ear and moderate loss of hearing in her right ear, also her left ear drum isnt working. they said there seems to be a problem in her middle ear. will let you all know how the next test goes.
As for her feet, she got fitted with this awful brace thing..will upload a pic... to straighten out her feet, although last night she was crying uncontrollably that brad and i decided to take it off. it was heartbreaking...we were both in tears. we go back to the physio dept next monday to get another brace that just goes on at night. so there you have it friends.... we are going through a bit of a rough patch at the moment, hopefully will be smooth sailing soon...Amanda xoxoxo

Thanks for getting back to me!!!! Glad your little one decided to turn for you. I've been going on all fours and doing other things to try and get her to move for about 6 weeks now but none of it seems to be helping

, i've even told her if she doesn't move her butt she will be grounded till shes 50 but that hasn't worked either!!!! I'm still undecided on trying ECV i guess i'll just have to see what the consultant says on Tuesday!!!!! Take care and good luck with the rest of your pregnancy

Just wondering if your baby is still breech? I had a scan yesterday and my baby is still breech i will be in week 36 tomorrow. I'm going to discuss a possible ECV on tuesday with a consultant at the hospital! It would be good to hear your experience, thanks
