Amani Kaluwevah Martinez was born on July 3, 2008 @ 1912 weighing in at 7lbs 11oz and 20 inches long! I love him sooo much!

08/25/2008

I can't believe how fast he is growing, he smiled at me for the first time last thursday :) I never knew what my life was missing before I had him, I feel so complete now! He is the sunshine in my life! I just hate worrying all the time, I am so afraid of SIDS and feel like I am doing everything wrong :( I just keep praying that God will keep him safe, I love him so much, he is my little miracle!

Hi, I am currently 8 weeks and 5 days pregnant. This is my first pregnancy and I am very nervous and excited. I got married on July 21, 2007 to the man of my dreams. I have been kinda miserable lately due to morning sickness and feeling fat but I am looking forward to my next ultrasound tomorrow! I am so excited! I am hoping that I will be able to hear the heartbeat. I am just praying that everything is still okay :)

12/20/07

I have my doctors appt. today! I am really excited and nervous. I am hoping everything is still okay. The only good thing about getting morning sickness is it makes me feel like the baby is still okay. If I didn't have any symptoms I would freak out! I am kinda sad because my husband can't make it to the appointment :( I knew that he wouldn't be able to make it to all of them but I can tell he really wants to be there. I feel bad because I have been talking about it all the time and I think I am making it worse. I really didn't realize how bad he wanted to be there until yesterday. My poor hubby :( He is such a sweetheart, I love him so much :)

12/21/07

Well I had my appt. yesterday, everything looks great! I wasn't able to hear the heart beat but I was able to see it again! I had an ultasound three weeks ago and it was so small. My doctor showed me the current one compared to the last one...wow what a difference, it has grown so much! I am so excited! I can't wait until the next time I get to see it. I have an appointment on Jan. 14 so I am hoping I get to see the little one then or at least hear the heart beat! Oh, they weighed me and I have gained 4 lbs in three weeks! That is scary I need to watch it! I still ahve a long way to go and I should only be gaining 15 lbs total...I guess that picture of the girl on the scale sums it up!

12/30/07

Hi everyone! I am so excited to be in my 10th week! I can't wait until I am in my second trimester! My tailbone has been hurting lately whenever I sit on hard surfaces. I don't really know why but it sucks. I am feeling better with the morning sickness but I have not had to get up early because I am off work until Jan. 2, I am not looking forward to going back : ( It is crazy because during the first few weeks I had cramping then that stopped and I got morning sickness and now I am feeling okay except for the tailbone thing. It seems that the symptoms just trade off. As long as my baby is doing well that is all that matters : )

01/08/08

I am feeling kinda sad lately. I feel like everwhere I go people are looking at me. I know that I have gained alot of weight, way too much for how far along I am. I am hard enough on myself as it is the last thing I need is someone judging me. I have always been very sensitive about my weight and now I am at my heaviest and it is really getting to me. I don't understand people and why they are so mean. I have my own family telling that I am fat! Why would someone say that to a pregnant, hormonal women. I know that I should not let that get to me but I am already uncomfortable around people and the only ones I felt comfortable around was family and know I don't even have that comfort. It just really sucks cause I don't want to go out in public I just want to stay home because I am embarrased. :(

01/09/08

So now my husband has a hard time figuring out which jeans are his! He is 6'3" and I am 5'3", oh well i guess... maybe we could save money and just share jeans! :) By the way today is day two of no puking! :)

01/14/08

I had my first ob appointment today! It was so cool. I was able to see the baby move! I think that I reaaly needed that, I feel so much better now! They should do ultrasounds just to keep expectant mothers spirits high. My husband was there which made me really happy... I love it when he can come! I also think that it makes it more real to him. I LOVE MY BABY!

Okay I am getting so excited about being pregnant now! I feel better and I am enjoying having a belly...everythings better now! Last night I was asking my husband if he was nervous about having a baby. He said No and that although it is going to be really hard at first we really need to enjoy it because this will be the ONLY time that this baby is a baby and it will go by so fast and we will never be able to have that experience with THIS child! I thought that that was a good way to look at it. It just really makes me happy to know that my is going to have the most wonderful father!!! :)

Well I found out that I am having a healthy baby boy...I really had a feeling it was a boy..it just makes sense that he would be a boy. I am excited about doing his room we picked out paint and I think that we are going to do a jungle theme or something.

04/03/08

I am so excited about my baby boy! I can't wait to meet him. I am having a really hard time believing that there is a little baby inside of me. I mean I feel him move alot, mostly down low, but I am having a hard time grasping that there is a 13in long 1.5lb baby inside of me!...CRAZY! I am trying my best to keep a positive attitude through the whole pregnancy thing, it is just really hard when I have some many emotions and they can change on the drop of a dime. I am feeling really alone. I know that people have gone through the same things and feel the way that I do but they are not going through it NOW. I miss my body being my own. I feel like total crap about myself and everyone pointing out the fact that I am FAT doesn't help. My husband doesn't want to be around me much anymore so that hurts my feelings but I am trying to control my hormones......I feel like I am doing better but who knows. I am having a hard time staying positive so I have been counting down the days.....I don't know how much that helps but when I really think about it when I started I had like way over 200 days and now I am at 109 :) I just want him to be here and be healthy and I am looking forward to being able to be home with him for a few months, that is the only thing that keeps me going. It is funny because when I really start feeling negative he always seems to kick me almost like he is saying "listen up lady this is not about you it is about ME! " It makes me smile :) I love him so much!

04/16/08

I am counting down the days until I have my son. I think that it will take alot of convincing to get me pregnant again. I know that he is worth every stretch mark, every pound, every emotional break down and all of the other unpleasentries of pregnancy. I am sure that once he is here all of that stuff won't matter anymore but for now I am having a hard time with it. I didn't think that pregancy would be this hard, I knew that things were going to change (stretch marks, weight gain,...) but I didn't think that it would bother me as much as it does. I guess when you figure I have probably gained like 40lbs already it makes sense. That is a major factor in the way that I feel. I don't really feel like I have been going crazy and eating everything is sight but the scale shows differently. I am working on being better and really limiting how much I eat so we will see if that makes a difference.

05/16/2008

I am finally in week 30! I am no waddling(so they tell me), my feet are swollen, I am peeing ALL the time, my back hurts when I do dishes or walk to fast and I am still getting fatter and even more stretch marks :( but I will tell you that all of that is worth it to feel my baby move! I love when he moves, even when it is uncomfortable, I like to see my stomach move...it is weird for a part of your body to be moving and not have control over it. I live how anytime I eat anything he moves around, almost like he gets excited when I eat! (I have a feeling that he is going to be a little fat ass like his momma :)) He makes me so happy already! I am ready to meet him and see what he looks like. I don't want him to come early or anything I just want time to hurry up until I have him and then slow down after he is here....is that too much to ask?

well thats good that your shop found you something. im ok in tr1 the gals are nice and i get to see a lot of people that i havent seen in a while. every morning i wake up hoping today will be the big day. i hope im not late even tho they say with your first baby will be late i certainly hope not. i have a dr's appt tomorrow maybe i'll get lucky and he'll want to induce me or something. actually the last time i visited the dr he said im 2cm dilated and 50% effaced. i scrolled thru your page but i cant tell, have you found out the sex of your baby yet? or are you not going to find out? my guess is a girl.

bvalley1982 - Saturday, 23 Feb

megcantwaitforherfirst - Thursday, 21 Feb
hey i just read your comment about people who dont mind their business about what you eat and i totally agree i'm on the younger side and all my friends seem to think that they know what i should or should not eat what i should or should not do if it were up to them id be inside a box until i had this baby i stopped taking peoples advice on food because i think i know what is not good for me

heather518 - Thursday, 21 Feb
I'm right there with you when you said people tell you you shouldnt eat something because its not healthy for your baby. I've told people flat out to just mind their own business haha because it's not any of their business! I eat healthy most of the time, but the times that I slip up or I'm dying for some salt and vinegar chips, someone has to run their mouth about it! What about all the good stuff I eat! haha I just wanted to let you know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE because that really irritates me too. =)

newmommie25 - Thursday, 21 Feb
i read your comment about being told what to and what not to eat and i feel ya there. people need to mind there business for sure!!!!! hope all is well

Hi, I know, I get the whole 'Im the worst in the world' thing to when Im ready to go, and he makes a big deal about it in front of everyone and then I feel like when we leave, they will talk about me making him leave. The other day we were at an antinatal thing from 9:30am till 3pm, then we went straight to his brothers house for a BBQ, I told him before that that I didn't want to have a big night, cause I had been out all day and had a crap sleep the night before but as soon as he started drinking he was impossible to get through to, so at 7:30pm, I told him that me and my stepson were going, and he told me to give him to 8:30 and he would come, so I did, but when 8:30 came around, he was like give me another hour, I said, no, Im going, just stay here the night, but his brother ended up sayin that they were going to bed soon, so he came home with me.

Hello,

I haven't felt one single movement yet and have actually lost 1 pound. It worries me all the time but I have actually 3 ultrasounds in the past 3 weeks and everything is totally fine. I can see the baby jumping around on the screen during the ultrasound but even then, I can't feel her. I read somewhere on the web that most people don't feel the baby until sometime between 18-22 weeks, so don't worry

aubreya - Saturday, 16 Feb
about gaining weight, just try to walk everyday, or walk a little bit twice a day. i am 5'2 and started out at 150 so i understand about not wanting to gain a lot of weight, i try to workout at least 4 times a week, jogging or some type of kick boxing or something, even walking is better than nothing. hope i helped, if you want to talk im hear to listen. oh by the way CONGRATS!!!

nay143 - Thursday, 14 Feb
Nicole!!! Im getting married tommrow!! YAY!!!!

nay143 - Thursday, 14 Feb
I totally forgot to ask you with everything that has been going on. How was your appointment??? I can't wait to meet the little bundle of joy! Im going to love on that baby soooo much!

Hey sweetheart, don't you worry, I know all about the woes of eating healthily - especially fruit and veg, between money and the fact that I just don't like them... I just make sure that if I make myself a sandwich it has tomato and lettuce on it, I buy fruit juice (mostly cheap bulk orange, but NOT from concentrate - 2litres for about €4) and a good tip if you're really not into getting your fruit and veg is to buy cheap supermarket brand smoothies - pure fruit and and fruit juice, and 250ml makes up for one or two of the 5 a day... I always have a glass before dinner, because it's good for me and baby, and stops me from eating too much rubbish at dinner...

I totally sympathise with you, and any time you want to vent, I'm here!

nancy26 - Tuesday, 12 Feb
hey sweetie, don't you worry about it - I was 30 pounds overweight when this PG started, in fact I was on a diet and exercise at the time, had just managed to lose the first 10 pounds... and found out we were PG. DOH!! since then I checked at 17 weeks and have gained another 20 pounds. I haven't checked since.

I know how you feel! demotivated, exercise is a chore... depressed with each pound gained... I also get sore hips, butt and back...

Anyhoo if you need anyone to talk to, gimme a shout! Congrats though, and rememberit's all for a reason! I've also got stretchmarks etc, but I know that we'llbe able to get back down to size after this! Start with light walking if you can throughout PG, and I'm sure you're eating healthily, so that's a good habit to keep for after!

I have been told I am havig a girl all the time by people so I have had a dream that I am having a girl but I am kinda wanting a boy. I will be happy with either though as long as they are healthy.

nicole-noelle - Monday, 11 Feb
I HAD A DREAM THAT I WAS HAVEING A GIRL AND I AM HAVEING A BOY!!

CHESHCAT82 - Monday, 11 Feb
I had been having boy dreams too, but I was crossing my fingers for a girl. But go figure, had a U/S done on Friday and it is a boy! This is my first child but I was a nanny for a baby girl for 3 years. Just like you said, I can't imagine what to do with a boy! I know it sounds bad, but I won't lie, I WAS disappointed. But after a couple of days, I am over it. I am happy to be having a baby no matter what the sex. I will still cross my fingers for a girl for you though =)

sarahj82 - Monday, 11 Feb
Hey how the the pregnacy going so far? Did you find out the sex yet? I don't until Feb 26th. Hope all is well

xo1stimemommyxo - Wednesday, 6 Feb
hey there. on the 'down there' issue...it's totally normal, not only is there more discharge period, we can smell reeeallly good so it seems more intense. i talked to my dr. about it and unless its thick and yellow/greenish, it's fine. i'm 26 weeks and let me tell you, the discharge (unofrtunately) only gets worse. hang in there. dont worry it almost seems like i don't smell things as strongly as in the begining though. hope this helps!

momaschatzy - Wednesday, 6 Feb
I have been having the same issues 'down there.' I didn't want to discuss it with anyone either because I was too embarressed. I am glad to hear that I am not alone. It is driving me so crazy! I shower morning and night and try to keep extra clean...still has a weird odor. Have you read Jenny McCarty's book called Belly Laughs? It is hillarious and has a whole chapter titled Niagara in My Pants. It talks about all the flow you have going on down there! Ahhh the things our bodies are going through!!!
