...............

Congratulations to all the mommies who are pregnant and for all of those who are trying. My page got wiped out so I am starting fresh. I found out I was pregnant unexpectedly. I was on the pill for 7 years and took it normally. I had missed my period the month before but really figured it was due to stress! I had just bought a new house (all on my own) and When i went to the doctors for my normal pap she told me I was preggo! I couldn't believe what I had just heard. Pregnant? Oh my. At first i am not going to lie. I cried and cried trying to figure out what I was going to do. I had a long talk with my boyfriend of 12 years (yes we started dating in 8th grade) and we both decided to keep and raise this baby. Now we are both extremley excited and nervous considering this is our first time.

My Boyfriend and me

15 WEEKS

Well went in for O/B appointment today and everything seems great. All my tests came back negative....and the baby is VERY healthy. I got to hear the heart beat for the very first time, and boy was that amazing to hear!! I have been having sharp pains in my belly button and today she felt the area and concluded I do have a hernia...I don;t know what it is but when she was oushing on my belly button (which is an outtie) I felt l;ike I was going to pass out, she said it will not harm or effect the baby at all so that's great! Oh and my due date is now 4/19/08....the baby is measuring large. I am so excited I also can find out the sex of the little one in 3 weeks! I can't wait... I am so anxious :)

17 Weeks

I am so mad that I can't figure out how to upload my ultra sound picture of the baby on here. Every picture I have on my PC will upload but the one picture I would like to show off.... Oh well. I am feeling a little dizzy at times. I get out of breath easily, but other than that doing well. My heartburn has subsided some so thank god for that!! My belly has finally popped and it seems high to me. It's really hard around my belly button area. I am huge! I have gained 11 pounds and I am always hungry. Latley I have had cravings for strawberry yogurt and cheese. Not together eww.... just two things I have been craving. I try and eat a lot of fruit (which I love) and have een eating cucumbers everyday :) In two weeks I go for a Fetal Survey. a 2 hour scan and hopefully I will be able to detect the sex of this baby.....I really hope so I just am too impatient to wonder and wait :)

It's a GIRL..........


19 Weeks

11/26/07 So I went for my 19 week AFP testing and and obviously found out we are having a healthy baby girl. We are so thrilled. She was very polite and crossed her legs the whole time, untill the very end! Thank goodness she showed herself. She is just darling!

Finally I figured out how to add the picture!Yay!

21 weeks

12/12/2007 Well it's 21 weeks for me...22 on saturday. Time is a flying by!!!! I am finally starting to feel my little princess stirring. It's an odd feeling-sometimes I feel almost like I might me sick, but then it's o.k. I am just happy to know she's doing well. I have gained 17 pounds! OMG sickening. I need to start getting rid of the horrible food and replae it with veggie's fruit's and whole grains. I have been letting my cravings over take me. Craving juice-apple-orange-pinapple-grapefruit....all of it I could drink it all day! Same with sweets especially chocolate, and around the holidays it's hard to deny! Little Miss Addalynn must like it too! ;) I have been tired and emotional-but for the most part I have felt good. I am starting to get nervous about daycare-gosh it's sooooooo expensive!

So here is the bedding I have chosen, I am painting my walls a buttery yellow. I just thought this was so bright and vibrant! I love the animals too!

25 Weeks

12/5/2007- Here I am 25 weeks pregnant. I feel like it's flying by. My appetite had increased sooooo much! I am always hungry. i wake up 3 or 4 times in the middle of the night starving and with full bladder. Not good. In this stage I feel good, but I am gaining so much weight. I just bought pregnancy pilates. I am going to start it this weekend and see how that works. I still have really bad heart burn, and my brain is in lala land, but other than that I feel good. Miss Addalynn is moving around quite a bit, she is kicking me aweful low, near my cervix.... and bladder...aaaahhh the bathroom :) I am longing for the moment I can hold this little girl in my arms and see who she looks like, the person she will become, it's wayyyy too exciting. Finaces are starting to scare me. I barley get by right now, and I budget my money...I don't know how I am going to do it once she gets here. Oh well, we'll figure it out! Daycare is soooo expensive, I just can't believe it.

She's Here!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adalynn`s birthstory

I woke up that morning soaked and thought I had peed the bed. I changed the sheets and layed back down for about 2 hours, finally at about 6:00 a.m. I woke up wet again! I was like...oh no I think my water broke. Not sure I took a shower and called my mom, seeking her advice...she told me to go to the hospital anyway and just make sure.i didn`t think it was possible because I was 2 months early....I woke my boyfriend up again (1st time because I changed the sheets) He told me to go back to bed, not believeing this was real. On our hour drive to the hospital i started feeling cramps...sooner found out they were contractions. I had nothing ready....no bag packed... nothing. i really thought it was a false alarm. We arrived at the hospital around 8:30, I told my boyfriend to go to work, because I wasn`t sure what was ahppening. My cramps were getting more painful and closer together. I walked into the main enterence alone asking where labor and delivery was. I got there and there was no room for me so they placed me in the admission room. After like an hour finally someone came and checked me out. I was 6cm dialted and contractions were 2min apart. They told me I was having this baby today! 3/3/08...Oh my I wasn`t even due until 4/19/08, I just prayed she would be o.k, she was only 33 weeks. Well shortly after I was checked the labor pains were getting worse, I called my boyfriend and told him to come to the hospital. i think he was in a state of shock. nothing ever works how you plan it. I decidfed I wanted an epidural, after that I couldn`t even feel my contractions. I would descrivbe contractions as really bad menstral cramps, but all over. Finally around 2:45 I was fully dialated. I felt a lot of pressure and told them I fell her down there low, can I push...can I push???? Waiting for the doctor I started pushing, It was amazing! 14 minutes later beautiful Adalynn arrived in this world really early and was 5 pounds... bigger than expected! But she still had some lung issues. After 2 weeks of being in the NICU I finally go to take my beautiful girl home. She is perfect. I was told preemies develop slower and her developmental age doesn`t start unitll her due date. I love her more than life itself!

6 month's -

Adalynn is doing great. She is at a very helathy weight and her height is beyond the average. It is so hard to believe this little girl was a preemie once on oxygen and a feeding tube in her nose, so little and hairy (because of the lanugo) (lol) She is a beautiful little spirit, already she has so much personality. She brightens up my world, my life! Addy is now sitting up on her own and rolling over! her teeth have not come through uyet but she is definatly teething. She Loves animals, i have found whenever my dogs walk near her she smiles in delight. Her smile is contagious. It is just a big toothless gummy grin! She says a lot with her eyes, right now she loves taking out her pacifier and figuring out how to plop it back in the "right" way! She like her jumper/excersaucer, but even more loves to be read to and tries to grab the pages of the book. I can tell she is going to be a very intuitive little girl. Everything interests her and she studies it with her baby blue's. I hope she is filled with happiness and comfort. She is starting to talk quite a bit...still no words, just a bunch of babbling! I love her so much and couldn't imagine my life without this little angel. Thanks Addy for being you!

I would see if you could get it for your daughter at another clinic...but if it is a shortage issue maybe there really is nothing you can do.


sarahjanesgirl - Friday, 12 September
I'm not sure if missing a month in the sequence will affect it. I know that it is a nationwide problem, try calling your cities health department. Your daughter is gorgeous!

Hi, I hope this isn't TMI... but we've just been pulling out lately. this is what we did for two years before I even got pregnant. i didn't want to start birth control b/c i knew it would be really hard to get pregnant when i wanted to again. but now i'm rethinking that. I'm going to wait a couple more days and hopefully i'm not then i'm going to get on it. i can't handle it again so soon!!


Baby-Beiler - Thursday, 4 September
