July 22/08
Can't believe haylen is already three months old on the 24th! Just listening to the playlist on this page, reminds me of being preggers!!
he is rolling over, and when i laugh he laughs its the cutest thing ever,,, i just cuddle him every second i can, i cant believe how fast he is growing,,,hes already 16 lbs!!!
He is really the perfect baby, sleeps till 10:30 am goes to bed at 7:30 ..( i know i know he is too perfect:) )
he is teething already, its painful, so i got him really good naturalpathic stuff called "Camilia" by a brand called boiron..it works well
His eyes are still blueish, wondering when they will turn brown....
Still breastfeeding, scared to know what my boobs are going to look like when im done, but i would do anything for my little hayler
God i am totally in love with m,y little sweetpea!
Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Had Haylen on april 24th, was the most tramatic labor I could imagine.
Was induced after being 11 days overdue, had the prosteglandin gel on the 23rd, and it started to dialte me and around 5 pm on the 23rd i was getting contractions, strong at 1 min apart, this continued for 24 hours!!! my h2o broke , and i was ready to start pushing, but the contractions were so bad, i had to through my all natural birth plan out the window, and got an epidural and pretty much everything eles,....
i was in sooo much pain, i was projectile vomitting, pushing, contracting for another 3 hours, my doctor pooked his head for my first push, and was like, ok call me when its crowing,...so three hours later, two doctors showed up and said i had to have an emergency c-section,...it took 2 hours to get me in, as the or was booked, i felt like i was dying, cause baby was right there, crowing, but was breached,, so as i was screaming down the halls to the or, they gave me another epiduarl, and threw some scrubs at my boyfriend and told him to hurry and put them on... on the operating table, they had about 6 ppl working on me, they actually had to get this little intern to come and help them, they were pushing my baby up back my vagina, through the birth cannal back to my stomach, the bed was like shifting back and forth, i was just looking at my boyfrined as the bed was moving back and forth, and i remember thinking, omg hes not going to make it....then i heard his darling little cry for the first time...
then they took me to the recovery room for 2 hours and i had only held him for 2 seconds...i had to stay in the hospital for 4 days, and my god, it was horrible,not at all like the natural way i had planned it......
BUT he is healthy, and almost 9 lbs and so sweet and beautiful and perfect...now if only he would sleep through the night!!!!!
Hello!
This is my first baby, and we are having a boy! we are going to call him Haylen. I have the most wonderful boyfriend the in the entire world, and I love that we are having a little piece of heaven together.
Haylen~ means hall of Light ....light means all that is good, pure, the very essence of life ....my little prince of light!!
Halen in french means breath....
~you are our breath of life~
When I think of heaven
When I close my eyes I can see you smile, and call out for daddy and I
When I see a little boy walking, I think its an angel showing me the precious gift that I'm going to have soon
When I look at daddy, I see you up on his shoulders, I can see you laughing together, off to build your first tree fort.
When I think of summer, I think of your first marshmellow, the first fire you and daddy make, the first hot dogs we will roast
When I see curls I think of your hair, that will be like daddys, your eyes from the ultrasound haunt me, they were mine. You looked at us and we knew you were really ours
When I need proof of miricles, of live going just right, I think of you
When I dream, i dream of us together forever, the three of us,
When I talk about love, its about the two loves of my life, thats you and daddy
When I think of heaven, I see you there, looking down at us and saying, thats them, thats my mommy and daddy.
love your mommy
daddy and I love you so much already! when we went to your first ultrasound, daddy was teary eyed all the way home, he is so proud of you. already..mommy loves her little roo and is working hard to get everything perfect and ready for you!!! Every time daddy comes home from work, he lovingly touches my tummy and askes how "his little boy is" ...when he tells me he loves to see my tummy grow, I want to cry becuase I am so happy to have you both...!!!We are so lucky that daddy goes out and works for us while we can just rest at home, I can't believe that I am going to get to be with my two favorite boys for the rest of our lives!!! Haylen Francious we love you and cant wait to hold you and look at you for the first time!!
To my little angel,
Daddy and I know you are comming soon, cause you have not much more room to grow!! I know that mommy says that she wants to come out soon, she wants you to be healthy and strong so take your time little one. Last night you were not moving for a few hours, and daddy and I were very scared...then daddy put his ear up to my tummy and heard your heart beat, and then we knew you were ok! Last night we went over to some of daddys friends house, and everyone is so excited to know everything about you, but the sweetest thing is when daddy looks at us from across the room, and even though he doesnt say anything, he is telling us that he loves us so much and will always be there for us. I can hardley wait untill daddy can hold you,cause its just been me and you for so long, and when you meet him, you will know what i know ...that we have been blessed with the best daddy to love in the whole world.
A baby asked God, 'They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?' God said, 'Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.' The child further inquired, 'But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.' God said, 'Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy.' Again the child asked, 'And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?' God said, 'Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.' 'And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?' God said, 'Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.' 'Who will protect me?' God said, 'Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.' 'But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.' God said, 'Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you.' At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, 'God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name.' God said, 'You will simply call her, 'Mom.'
I have been stressing out for weeks on how the visiting situation at the hospital and home is going to be like...i feel like i have to protect my little angel from germs, slobbery kisses, overbearing relatives and STRANGERS !!! i wasn't sure of how to go about telling ppl what would make me comfortable without being a bitch...so i decided to do it in a martha stewart type way!!:) im going to send out pre-invataions like below....
you are invited to see our new baby soon...
where: hospital, we will call you when...
or at our house a few days later...
we are so excided to share this day with you...here is just a few requests to keep new mommy and baby as happy as two peas in a pod..
Please try to just have a quick hold and stay...mommy and baby are still tired!
Please respect the quiet surrondings
Please wash hands immediatley before touching baby
Please, no smoking or stong perfums or body sprays
and i know its tempting but please no kissing our little angels face untill he is a bit more used to the germs in our world!
We look forward to having you spend this time with us, and thank you for respecting our wishes...

missjess - Tuesday, 15 April
i like haylen ryder francious
missjess - Tuesday, 15 April
well, i think i started leaking amniotic fluid this morning around 3am. It was jus a little gush of fluid, but it woke me up outta my sleep for some reason andi ran to the bathroom. Ive been having some kinda painful contractions since then, so i think it might be the real deal! I dont know though! I was sposed to have an appoint today at 10:30, but my doc said to just go to l&d. so wish me luck!
may - Tuesday, 15 April
I feel the same flu like achy but no contractions. I had my 'bloody show' Friday but nothing yet
edensmum - Tuesday, 15 April
hey, I have the same symptoms as you, pelvic pain (shooting and stabbing), backache, period like cramping (which I think are the BH contractions). I like your idea of sending out preinvitations that specify what you want! I know there are sooo many people that are excited about seeing my baby which is great. But I want to make sure they wash their hands first without offending them!! My EDB was 12/4 as well but still waiting. All the best!!
chantal07 - Monday, 14 April
No...no baby, but if he doesn't come tonight I will be induced 7:30 a.m.....I didn't want to get induced but at this point I just want to meet him so badly that I don't care anymore. My first was right on her due date and I went on my own...it was girl though....she wasn't being stubborn like her brother is...lol!
The 23rd...how far along would that make you? I have been having crazy cramping and big time pressure...so maybe I will go on my own.
Well I hope you go soon so u will not have to get induced too....best of luck...keep me posted!
may - Monday, 14 April
No baby for me this weekend? How about you any luck!?
chantal07 - Sunday, 13 April
Well another morning of waking up with no labour or baby:(
I feel like it is never going to happen either...and I really don't want to get induced on Tuesday, he has today and tomorrow to make his big appearance or I guess I will be getting induced!
So your baby hasn't dropped yet? That sucks..I really hope he engages for you!
I hear ya...if he doesn't get out.....I'm gonna lose it too!!!
I hope we both go into labour today!!!! So we can be holding our babies by tonight:)
chantal07 - Saturday, 12 April
I am feeling humongous and soooo frustrated! I am so tired of this waiting around in anticipation and waking up everyday wondering if today is the day or not, and yet again another day come and gone with no baby:( And the phone calls are getting even more severe!!! Lol!
People are totally getting on my nerves....the whole thing about being polite while pregnant....yah well that's gone! Lol!
I was dilated 3 cm last Thursday..this thurs down to 1.5!!! Contractions have stopped and all I get is cramping all the time. Dr is going to induce me tues if he doesn't come by then....I don't want to be induced:(
I have tried walking, raspberry leaf tea, eating pineapple(which I later found out u have to eat like 6-8 in a day to get any effect!!!), my cousin swears rocking in a rocking chair does it, so I have been rocking for hours, running up and down stairs....I really think none of these things are really going to work, he's just not ready i guess....but i so am!
How are you feeling? Anything going on with you....contractions etc???
halesss7410 - Friday, 11 April
OK ENOUGH ALREADY!!! my friend at work that was due yesterday jsut had her abby boy today!!! I am soooo beyond jealous!!! 10lbs 8oz (not jealous about that--haha ouch!) But gosh--enough is enogh it is time!!! I am ready for her to get here! Today is my last day at work and I dont want ot sit at home ALL week without a bundle in my arms!! I dont know what is better though-- will she come faster if i am sitting at home relaxing all week, or at work runnignaround like a crazy person?? Nothing is working and sex isnt an option when we are both pissy. I dont know what to do to make her come this weekend!! i def dont want to do anything like castrol oil--i want everything to happen on its own but i am so impatient. Johnny has all of the patients in the workd-- i think that he is so scared that he doesnt want her to come until last minute!! i guess i need to calm my nerves and wait until she is ready!!
Have you lost ur plug or anything????
I wish that we lived closer to eachother so that we could go walking together--everyone around me is lazy or too busy!! i need someone that will motivate me!!! i just need to see what my doc say on monday, hopefully he will press a button somewhere!!
Ooohhh--did i tell you that my boss asked me today if i was going to come to work on monday??? TODAY IS MY LAST DAY!!! how long do they expect me to work??? its not like they make it wasy on me or anything!! I really need the money so i left the option open--i guess the ball is in my court if i decide to but i am hoping that i will pop this weekend and be officially on mat leave. what do you think? i feel GREAT today and i dont understand why!1 i have been miserable and swollen for two weeks now and my BP has been high--today i am fine. i dont know if it is adrenaline cause i dont have to come back for a while--or maybe she will come soon....i feel like i drank a pot of coffee--- i am wired and this is NOT ME!! i am always tired and cranky and miserable. what is going on!!!! ok--i will let yoiu go while i take a lap around the hospital. LABOR DUST!!!!
!
halesss7410 - Friday, 11 April
That is exactly what my cervix is!! I have an appt on Monday so hopefully he will put that gel on there and stretch my cervix like he said--i guess he will also set a date to induce. They checked me upstairs and all was good. My urine didnt have an protien in it so i guess i am getting a bladder infection. they said that it is common when the baby is this far down cuz it is hard to empty ur bladder all of the way. she gave me a list of symptoms to worry about and if i get them to go upstairs.
Man...I feel like i am going backwards!! I was doing sooo good with the contractions all week and last night--nothing--the night b4 i barely had anything!! I am going for a LONG walk today when I get off work (my LAST day by the way--yipee!!) hold on my patients are showing up in a line--haha ttyl
halesss7410 - Thursday, 10 April
Thanks for the advice!! i called and left a message at the doc office and she hasnt returned my call. i work at the hospital so I think that I am going to head up there in a few and get them to check me out.
Did you see you doc yet?? Are you dilated??
halesss7410 - Thursday, 10 April
Let me know how your doc appt went!! I ony have one more day of work and that is it--sooo excited!! I checked my BP a couple of hrs ago and it is 133/80. That is high for me--i wonder if I should call the doc and tell him. ?? It didnt seem too concerned on Monday when it was higher than that and the nurse I work with said that he should have been. I dont know! All I know is that my legs are soooo swolled and I have NO ankles! Last night I had to put ice packs on my inside ankles to see if the swelling would go down and when I pressed down on my leg the imprint of my thumb stayed there for a good 2-3min. Not just the white part but you could actually run your finger across the imprint and feel the difference. Is this normal?? I know that i am retaining fluid but gosh--that doesnt sound normal!
Here is the link to the Bumbo chair http://www.bumbobabyseat.com/
They have them at Walmart, Babies R us as well... I have a ton of friends that use them and swear by them. It took me a while to find one--they were sold out everywhere.
I cant wait for this to be over!!! I couldnt sllep last night and even walked up and down the stairs at 11:30pm to see if I could get something going! I was pissed at my BF, well just pissy period! so I def didnt was to do 'anything' else. haha. I think that my BP was up last night-- they induce women early for blood pressure and swelling!! I dont understand why he isnt taking this a little more serious. I will see him Monday though and hopefully everything will go well!
Quick question: who are you having in the delivery room with you?? I planned on it just being Johnny and I only because I cant stand his mom right now and my mom hasnt really given her 100% in this pregnancy. I always figured that I would want her in there but in all reality--if she was in there--it would only be because I felt bad and didnt want to upset her, not because I really want to share the experience with her. As of right now I told everyone that it would be me and johnny only and I let my mom know that if i changed my mind during labor that i would go and get her. you think that is ok?? HIS mom is sooooo mad at me and wont even look at me because she feels that she should be in there becsuse she had 5 kids and we didnt take any birthing classes. she told my mom that and my mom was pissed. his mom always calls my mom when she is drunk and blabs bad about me. drama drama!! as far as i am concerned-- his mom has 3 daughters and having had any kids yet--share the experience with them!! right?? my mom has one daughter who is having her first child--she should (and i will probably break down and let her) share this experience with me. Sorry--i am blabbing. let me know how you are handling your delivery room arrangments--what should we do?
halesss7410 - Thursday, 10 April
It is the boppy pillow https://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2584005&fromRegistryNumber=67734585&product_skn=770253
It comes in handy when you are breast feeding...it also is good for the baby b4 he can sit up and all kinds of other things. Good investment!!
lenslik - Thursday, 10 April
thank you:))))))
chantal07 - Wednesday, 9 April
Actually yah I do find I can be more polite, because I don't say rude things when people say stuff like your huge(which i would normally tell someone off for saying!) But on the other hand I am more rude with people I know, like my mom...poor mom! Lol! I find it is really hard to tell people things like wash your hands before you pick up the baby etc, but it is something we have to do! I have this Aunt who thinks it is ridiculous to have to wash your hands before holding the baby, and she smokes, so that is just nasty like I want my baby smelling like smoke! I wonder what it is that makes people feel the need to stop and talk to pregnant women...it is strange! I have never felt the need to...lol! Hope your dr appointment went well and hopefully progress has been made for you!
may - Wednesday, 9 April
I am due on the 14th and went in today and my doc says that she thinks that it maybe this weekend but if not by wed. that we will make plans to induce me by the 21 or so. :) Coming down to the wire can not wait! I wish you a happy and healthy delievery!
halesss7410 - Wednesday, 9 April
Let me know what the doc says when you go--i think that I am going to take a couple of those EPO's orally, i think that it may be helping 'the other way'...I had the most horrible contractions last night, only two though--I was so tired i dont remember them--I just know I was almost in tears!! I am a little sore in my pelvis area today, when I walk and toward the end of the day it feels like it is bruised, maybe it is cause my body is not used to her being so low and heavy.
I did an ultrasound yesterday, a real fast on e at work just to get an est on how much she weighs and she was soooo chunky that we couldnt even get a good pic of her. There has to be fluid around her face and her chubby cheeks were scrunched down there and there and she just blended in. So cute!!! They est her at 7 something but wehen they get this big it is hard to get an accurate weight based on measurements... so it is always +or - ounces or lbs.
That stinks that your shower isnt til after!! What do you have now?? I have just about everything but we had a shower already...now as far as buying aditonal stuff--I am kinda going easy on spending actuall money- I received a ton of gift certificates and I went and bought the things that I was dying for-- Bumbo chair (MUST HAVE!!) and a Boppy pillow, a cute diaper bag, (the brown one on my page), and then things like burp clothes, nipples for her dr brown bottles, and the pac n play http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2508003&cp=2256079
check it out!!! it is soooo cute!!
Ok, so about dreams last night--i woke up a hundred times with a few contractions and full bladder and about 4:00 I woke up from a dream that JOhnny and I were riding in a truck (he drives a Honda lowered with gadgets on it) and he was talking to some girl on the radio (weird) and I was just sitting there. We were going to different hotel rooms and hekept saying that they were dark (like the light was turned off and no one was there)-- well he was talking to some chic named kristi or something and apparently talking about 'hooking up' right infornt of me...but it seemed like JOhnny and I were just friends or something, like i was sopposed to be ok with it. Then we were pulling away to go to the correct hotel room and when we got onto the main rd he looked at me and said tha he would probably be engaged tonight to that chic. I started crying and woke up all pissed wanting to yell at him!!! Talk about engagment rings. isnt that wierd that we both dreamt about that, at least you got yours!! Haha! The funny thing is that I trust him 100%...maybe that is why he is always cheating on me infront of me in my dreams!
Well let me get to work-- I only have 2 1/2 more days left, not like i am doing much anyways!! haha TTYL
chantal07 - Wednesday, 9 April
When I had my first I thought the stranger talk got even worse...because than they start touching the baby, and the baby's hands and stuff...why is it that everyone insists on touching a baby's hands?! I even had this old woman try to kiss Lily in the grocery store, she was 1.5 weeks old!!! I almost lost it on her!! Lol!
I just can't wait for him to be here, it's obviously all I and everyone else on this site can think of, and it makes me upset when people constantly keep reminding me he is not here! It is only 9 am and my mom has already called here 3 times!!!! I actually picked up the phone and hung it up because I am sad today cause I had this 'feeling' that I was going to go into labour last night....so much for that!
may - Wednesday, 9 April
when I go the bathroom it feels the same for me.. very uncomfortable! But getting the cramps that is a good sign that it is approaching! Good luck to you! I am going to try walking tonight after work to. :)
chantal07 - Wednesday, 9 April
I know I even hate going out shopping because I tend to run into a whack of people I know and they are like you still haven't had that baby! Thanks for reminding me...lol! I am not even due yet...why does everyone expect the baby to be born already!!! Honestly I thought he'd be here already too, cause my first was right on her due date and doc thought I would have had him by now! I can't wait, right now it seems like forever but I have decided to stop complaining and cherish these last few days of being pregnant because no matter what he will be here soon enough!
Good luck to you as well and I wish you a healthy, happy baby and an easy delivery!!!
lilmami8508 - Tuesday, 8 April
aww look at your little bump! its so cute! i hope everything goes good for you and your baby :) halesss7410 - Tuesday, 8 April
I am probably bugging you but here is the pac nplay that we are using for her bassinet--we figured that we would get better use out of our money this way!! it is cute--you will like it cause is could be for a boy as well. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2813888
it plays music and vibrates and as nature sounds and two night lights. it also has a wipes despenser etc--dont worry it is all set up and ready to go-- i dont think that i can clean the house or fold her clothes amy more than i have already. too bad i am not always this tidy. ttyl
halesss7410 - Tuesday, 8 April
this is the bouncer...it is way cuter in person--a lot brighter..i am glad that some ppl bought neutral things so that we can reuse them if we have a boy next-- not that i am ever thinking about doing this pregnant thing again-- haha!!
http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/601-4056546-3288904?ASIN=B00106CNXK&AFID=Froogle&LNM=B00106CNXK|FisherPrice_Soothe_n_Play_Bouncer&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=B00106CNXK&ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001
halesss7410 - Tuesday, 8 April
I am sooo glad to hear that you didnt leave me alone!! I ahve been talking to pregnantme and she had her little boy--he is sooo sweet. I am totally jealous!! The chair isnt winnie the pooh, it is more modern. i didnt buy it though, ill see if i can find it on the internet.
So i went to the drug store and bought those EPO things and have been putting them on my cervix--'easier said than done!!'-- but i havent been taking them orally-- i am too scared! Are you dialated at all??
I went to the doc yesterday and he did something 'down there' even if it wasnt intentional cause i have felt period cramps and lower back ache ALL DAY! I personally dont want to be induced only because i heard that it hurts more and if she isnt ready then it leads to c sections, but the way that my blood pressure and swelling is effecting things isnt good either. I dont think that he actually induce until almost 42 wks, but he did say that he would put some cream on me and stretch my cervix. ???who knows?? i really want to finish this week of work---3 more days-- even though my legs are HUGE--i need the money!! So i hope that she comes this weekend instead of today!! --Like it is my decision!!--
Oh-- i too walked last night--we dont have hills though so i had to go to the mall. It made her drop more, maybe that is why i am sooo uncomfortable. Well relax and get some rest, i have a feeling that when they do decide to show up --(at the same time)haha-- we are going to be zombies!! Let me know if anything happens!!
