SUNDAY 26TH AUGUST 2007

Our wedding day! We got married at 4.30pm on Butterfly Beach, Montecito, California. Alex's brother, Eddy and new wife, Giselle and my sister, Rachel and nephew Brandon, were in attendance. Eddy and Rachel were the witnesses to our wedding.

We had a lovely dinner at the Four Seasons Biltmore, Santa Barbara afterwards! A perfect day!

SATURDAY 27TH OCTOBER 2007

First day of last menstrual period!

MONDAY 5TH NOVEMBER- SUNDAY 11TH NOVEMBER

Took off on a road trip to Yosemite National Park and San Fransisco! Had an amazing time, think we conceived on this trip!

SUNDAY 25TH NOVEMBER 2007

Left Santa Barbara, for a new temporary adventure in Costa Rica! Here until 17th January.

FRIDAY 30TH NOVEMBER 2007

Period 5 days late by my calculations! Finished with birth control 2 months previous so not too concerned! Did test anyway!!! POSITIVE!! OMG, complete shock and excitement! My husband returned from work to find me in a crying mess! he gave me a huge hug and kiss!

Called my sister in England the next day, crying! She told me to calm down and I would be fine! Did another test on Monday 3rd December. POSITIVE!!! Went to see the local doctorin Coco beach, who did some blood tests and referred me to a gynogoligist! All very head spinning stuff!

THURSDAY 6TH DECEMBER 2007

First appointment with gyno! He speaks no English! All blood tests good!My blood type is o neg and my husbands is A positive, so will maybe need an injection in future to avoid complications. had an ultra sound, around 5 weeks. Doc concerned about my progesterone levels , so had more blood tests but everything seems good. Got my prenatal vits, so ready to go! Need to come back in 2 weeks.

THURSDAY 18TH DECEMBER 2007

Second visit! Had extreme nausea since last visit! Worried about throwing up in Taxi! Heat of Costa Rica is not helping at all! I see the snow in Nevada on T.V and dream of being there!

Had another ultra sound and heard the heartbeat. It was so amazing! Bit further on than 1st thought.The embryo is 1.16cm and the heart rate is 143 bpm! I am 7 wks 2 days and due date is August 3rd 2008. The doc said I also have 2 small fibroids that will need to be removed at a later date but will not affect the pregnancy.

TUESDAY 25TH DECEMBER 2007

Merry Christmas! Told my immediate family!!! They are overjoyed! What a great surprise!

FRIDAY 28TH DECEMBER 2007

Tracked Alex's family down in Ixtapa, Mexico and told them! More excited people! Feel so great. Now counting down the days until we leave Costa Rica!

Took a picture of myself but dont think I show yet? Been eating all the wrong food but a lot of stuff makes me feel nauseas! Struggling with water but trying my best! Its not just me to think about now!

Our pregnancy calender!

Wednesday 15th January 2008

Had my first appointment of the new year today! It was awesome! Had an ultrasound and the baby was sleeping but I am sure it waved at us and kicked its leg! Heartbeat was strong 174bpm and it measures 4.99cm crl.

Now it all seems real, before you know your pregnant but cant really see anything but now, you can see something and it moves it makes it real!!! My husband is as excited as me , which is lovely!!

I have gained 2kg so far so not too bad!!! Feels like 10 though!!!

FRIDAY 7TH MARCH 2008

Just spent 2 weeks at home with my family in England and flew back to Mexico City on Wednesday. Jet lag has hit me really bad and i threw up yesterday for the first time in about 4 weeks! Old habits die hard! hahaha

I loved being at home around my friends and family and it was great to introduce them to my growing bump! I never realised how much I missed English food til now! The crumpet, cheddar cheese, marmite on toast (a yeast dark spread which you love or hate!), scones ,jam and cream! Up until week 16 I had only gained around 4lbs and in the 2 weeks in the uk I gained around another 10!!!!!!!! I can definately feel it now!

Have an appointment with my gyno today, so I hope he doesnt tell me off too much!!!???!! :-(

Hope everyone out there is doing great. xxxxxxxxx

I am very tired! My baby does not sleep at nite. I think she is very gassy. Shes wide awake and screaming from like 11pm-5am. Hows ur little one sleeping? Im healing really good for the c section. I couldnt walk for the first couple days then slowly started walking again and now 3 weeks later you would never know I had one! I can see my scar though I hope it will eventually fade. Did you get any baby blues?

my birth story of my daughters is alot like yours. I ended up being 10 days late. and with 2 bags of patocin I only dialated to 1 cm. they couldnt believe it. but later when i saw my dr again. he said i had a very narrow pelvic bone and wouldnt be able to pass a baby through there. well not babys as big as my girl was. she was 9 lbs! im glad to have a c-section this time around. at least everyone will know when its coming.

mommad - Monday, 11 August
Congrats! Such a beautiful family! How are things going now tha you are home? My baby is 2 weeks. We're doing great. Breastfeeeding is going great, although I got mastitis the first week. She sleeps through the night, with an occasional feeding in the night.

Well cervix is stubborn as an ox! He scheduled the induction for Tuesday. I can't wait ;) This is my last weekend by myself, from here on out I will be a plus one!!

waiting08 - Wednesday, 6 August
You are so very right about that. I too was marking everything on the calendar! Oh well, they are just being stubborn I guess! Labor dust to you ;)

waiting08 - Wednesday, 6 August
Gosh, you did try everything. I surely heard of all of those things and wondered if any of them worked! But thanks for the reassurance! Cute profile pic!!
Ya know I was gonna ask you if you were sure about all of your dates, like your LMP, possible conception date and the one they gave you, things like that. All of my ultrasounds and my LMP are all on point for the 8th, just seems like its not the right time? lol

u look lovely!!! Ur ass looks great!! lol... and ur tummy still looks really high up like it hasnt dropped... stunning!!

mumofsix - Monday, 4 August
Because you are probably ready for your body to go into labour then induction is nothing too bad. It does make it a bit more intense and the contractions will be stronger. I personally don't have a problem having a big baby but my first baby was only average so I can't really give advice about a first baby being big.
There is nothing wrong with being induced and to be honest if I had been offered it with my first when I was past my due date, I would have jumped at it. Just be prepared that induction can lead to the need for further intervention but not always. The other condsideration is that your baby will not get much bigger in a weeks time so the difference of weight will not be that significant.
Let me know what you decide. Take care.

Thinking of you, I realise this is your due date as it would have also bee mine. Keep me posted. I am still in recovery mode and will do a post soon about it all. All the very best.
