BACKGROUND STORY

-- I figured I should give a little background, for those that just poke in and out of profiles :P I'm Mallory, and currently 20 yrs old. I'm married to the most amazing man, Kamil, and he's 22 yrs old. He was born in Poland so our baby will be half polish. I first found out I was pregnant July 4th, 2007, but was constantly having really bad lower abdomen pains. July 12th, I was taken by ambulance from work, and ended up miscarrying. I was a little disappointed, but not much because I had known for only a few days that I was carrying a baby, and I hadn't gone to the doctor yet. So I wasn't very attached. That night was the worst pain I've ever dealt with in my life, I think. But Kamil was by my side, trying to feed me a little, so if I puked, I'd have something to puke up, and so I wouldn't pass out. He bought me lots of popsicles and a few pastries from Panera Bread (like I said, the most amazing man :D). September 21st. 2007, I found out I was pregnant again :) Exactly 2 days after our 1 year wedding anniversary. (We were married September 19th, 2006). I immediately got a doctor, and we ended up moving back up to Michigan to live with my parents, from Illinois where we lived with Kamil's parents. We're still living with my mom, but we're really trying to find our own place. I can't wait until I can finally be alone with my husband, and soon, our baby :) We're having a GIRL! I couldn't be more happier. A lot of people have commented on the fact that I was married at 18 and am having a baby at 20, and I haven't even completed college and I have no degree. (I'm actually taking 2 classes right now, trying to get them out of the way.) I really don't care what others say. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else in my life right now. Sure, we've got problems, but I'm soooo unbelievably happy to be married and starting a family. Starting this young just gives me more time to have more kids at a younger age :P We're expecting our baby girl May 26th, 2008. I'm convinced she'll be here a couple weeks early. I wouldn't mind her coming on Mother's Day :) (May 11th) We've picked out a name, but have only shared it with a few family members. The rest will have to wait until she makes her way into this world. Kamil and I are enjoying every minute as soon to be parents, and we couldn't be happier. Read my updates. Laugh, get angry, and weep with me. We're all in this together as soon to be mommies! If you need to vent, feel free! I love talking to new people, and will do everything in my power to bring a smile to your face! We all have our days. And I'm sure I've had more than enough! May, HERE I COME!!

^^ My baby girl!!! ^^

WE'RE MOVING!! FINALLY!!! WE FINALLY GET OUR OWN PLACE!!! I'M SOOO FREAKING EXCITED!!! We move, at the latest, the 2nd week of April :D AHHHH!!! I'll finally have a place to put my baby girl's stuff (once I get it from my shower). Oh gosh, I'm probably the happiest girl in the world right now!! I've got 10 weeks left of this pregnancy basically. And now that I'm going to the OB every 2 weeks, it feels like time is starting to slip by me. But I'm fine with that! It only means I'll get to hold my baby girl sooner :) Kamil is really starting to get excited now, too. He keeps rubbing my belly, and talking to her, and telling her how close she is to seeing us and the world :) He's even going into baby aisles, and getting excited about all of the stuff he sees lol. My baby shower is this Sunday (the 16th), too. So I'm super excited about that! My mom stepped in, so now it'll be a lot more elegant than what my friend had planned. Fine with me! I kind of regret letting my friend throw it for me now. I wish I had told my mom and sister to do it LOL! Horrible, I know. But I can't help it! It's my baby shower! Not some sunday bbq! Ahh well. It'll still be really awesome, and huge, and I'll have fun :) I really hope we can get everything we need. My mom still plans on buying the crib. So if we do get everything we need and more, we'll be able to spend some money on getting actual furniture for our townhome, and we won't have to use plastic crates for furniture :P My husband has been on me since my last appointment, about how much junk foods and sweets I'm eating haha. Last night I came home from class with some Oreo cookies and Skittles. He's like "You need to quit eating that stuff! You always complain about how you're gaining all this weight, and yet you won't quit eating it!" ahah. I got mad and almost threw the skittles at him, but he really is right. Stupid man lmao. I still lovers him though :)

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Dunno why people make such a big hype about it. I guess the weekend before is just another excuse to get drunker than a skunk. Ahh well. My baby shower was yesterday :D WOOO! It was sooo amazing! We had more than 60 people show up! It was coed, but there were only a few guys that were there, two of whom were my dad and Kamil. The gifts we received completely overwhelmed me. I had to have Kamil help me open them, there were so many and it was taking so long! We had 3 games we were gonna play (poopy diaper, baby/gift bingo, & measure baby bump), but we never got to the last game cuz we ran out of prizes for the guests!! A TON of people won the poopy diaper game! Holy crap. We had to take their names and just draw three, cuz almost all of the prizes would have been gone! I think we had about 17 prizes total, including the 2 doorprizes for the diapers they brought.

Baby/gift bingo finished off the prizes. I felt super bad, but we just had sooo many people! And to think that before everybody got there, while we were setting up, my friend that hosted and her mom were actually COMPLAINING that we had too many prizes. I'm sorry, but the things my friend had for a few prizes were given to her by her sister that she's had for like.. TWO YEARS! So my mom went and spent about $80 in Bath & Body Works. I love my mom :o) But overall, it was an awesome turnout. I as just soo exhausted by the time everybody left. I was tired when we started opening the gifts! I didn't get to sleep til 3 am cuz I was too excited, and I was up baking cupcakes and cookies :) And then I had to wake up at 8 and get right to work! Needless to say, I really ran myself ragged yesterday lol. My mom didn't get to sleep until 7am the day OF the shower! She was up finishing frosting, and was making some other stuff. So she was super tired! We got over 30 packages of diapers. TONS of clothing! The only bad thing, a lot of the clothing is for spring, and even though not all of it is 0-3 months, by the time she's 3 months old, it'll start to get cooler, and she won't be able to get out in the spring stuff.

So we'll have to spend a little money to get her some clothing for cooler weather, but man. It's just so awesome that everybody blessed us in the ways they did. We even got TWO travel sets! (carseat + stroller). So we have to take one back and hopefully we'll get cash back for it, and we can go get the things we still need with that, the money we received as gifts, and the money Kamil's family is sending us. Here's a couple pictures, and I'll put the rest in the photo album. I didn't, however, get a picture of my cake with my digi camera. But my mom got a couple, so when I get copies from her, I'll see if I can put them up here. THANK GOD FOR BABY SHOWERS!

^^ Gifts you see x 5 = What we got! ^^ The favors that took me 3 hours to do!

Happy Easter ya'll! (A day late :P) I hope all of you mommies and mommy-to-bes had awesome Easters, and I hope the Easter bunny brought you something special :) I can't really say that I had a good Easter. It ended alright, but man, it sure started out crappy! I'll start at Friday. My older sister came down for the weekend, and had wanted to take me shopping since she wasn't able to come to my baby shower. So she picked me up Friday afternoon from Kamil's work, and we went out to my dad's house real quick to drop her 4 yr old daughter off, so her and I could come back into town and shop around. We get there, and I'm very civil to my step-mother (I don't exactly get along with her right now), and I was saying hi and talking to my dad and stuff. Well, Kara (older sister), and I are getting ready to leave, and I'm standing there with my dad, and my step-mom comes into the kitchen and sits down, at just out of the blue, she starts nagging me about my bunnies. Telling me that I need to do something with them, otherwise she's gonna take them down to the animal shelter. Blah blah blah. Told me that I need to come clean them, ect.

Now, Kamil & I do not live with my dad. We live with my mom right now, and it takes about 25 minutes to get from my mom's to my dad's, and we don't have the money or the gas to go out there EVERY SINGLE DAY and take care of them. My dad even told me he doesn't mind taking care of them until we move. Mind you, we move in TWO weeks. I tell her they would have had litter had SOMEBODY not gone out there and dumped almost a ful bag into an already half full litter box. Right over top of the wet and poo poo litter. She started arguing with me, and I just turned away and ignored her. So that was my issue friday. On to Sunday, Easter. My husband and I were up and getting ready to go over to my dad's house, so we could hang with Kara before she went back home. Well, I turn my phone on around 9:30 am, and there's this really nasty message from my step-mom; telling me to come get my bunnies, or I'll find them on my mom's doorstep later in the afternoon, & I'm totally taking advantage of my dad and little sister, because they've been feeding and watering them. Well sheesh. That got me bawling like a baby. I'm already hormonal, and completely attached to my rabbits. I went and found Kamil in the kitchen, tears streaming down my face, and he just wraps me in his arms, not knowing why I'm even crying. I had him listen to the voice mail, and it pisses him off. We go and buy litter (we went to go get some the night before, but it was late, and the store we went to didn't have any litter. So we actually planned on going over there to take care of them before she even called and left the message.), and then head out to my dad's to clean them, and pack them up. I didn't know where we were gonna take them. My mom wouldn't let us keep them IN her house, cuz she has no room, and I didn't want to put them outside at her house, cuz she lives out in the country, and we've got cats.

We got there, and find that they actually have my rabbits INSIDE the house. I go into the family room where they are all sitting, and tell my little sister that I need the rabbits, I'm taking them with me. She cleans up the mess, and puts them in the box she carried them in, and handed them to me. We get the keys and head out to clean up their area. Kamil sent me back inside for some garbage bags, and I had my dad find some, and he asked me what was going on, what was wrong with me. I tried not crying again, but I couldn't help it. I told him I was really upset. Apparently, he had no idea that Charlene even called me. I started to tell him, and I think she was listening to us talking, cuz she pops out of nowhere and says in a real bitchy, snotty voice "YES, I called. I told her to come get them otherwise I'd leave them on her mother's doorstep later today." Nag nag nag, bitch bitch bitch. I seriously could have knocked her silly. She makes me so sick! And then she just STANDS THERE as my dad and I keep talking. I looked at her and told her that I'm sorry that I'm not the richest person, and I can't freakin come out everyday to take care of them, or that I don't have the money to always get the things we need for them when we need it (all the while, I've got tears streaming down my face), and that my dad told me he didn't mind take care of them until we moved. And yes, Charlene, WE MOVE IN TWO FREAKING WEEKS. And then I just ignored her. I ended up just walking out, cuz I couldn't keep myself calm, and I had to keep shutting my eyes tight and telling myself to calm down cuz I don't need to stress myself out, and end up ultimately stressing my baby out. Kamil and I finished the bunnies and got them all packed up, and my dad told me I could take them to his shop/warehouse, and keep them there, as long as they're clean, until we move (we still have to call the apartment and see if they'll let us keep very clean, domesticated dwarf bunnies that weigh no more than 2 lbs each). So that's how we spent most of our Easter. Setting my bunnies up at my dad's shop.

My Easter dinner? Taco Bell, and later, when Kamil went on lunch for work, he took me to The Parlour, and we had grilled cheese, french fries, salad, and the best icecream ever. So to make this ever so long story short, my Easter sucked, and I really wouldn't care if I ever see my step-mom again. She treats me and my husband like shit, and doesn't respect either of us, but watch. The baby will get here, and Charlene will want to have her all the time, and come over all the time to see her. Nuh uh, I DON'T THINK SO. You're not gonna treat my family like shit right now, and then expect me to let you see/have my daughter when she's here. You're crazy. I'll pull the "grandma" card. I'm not playing her games.

On a lighter note, I had fun with Kara! She took me shopping Friday, and paid for me to get my nails done :D I felt awesome that day. I had so much fun, and she pampered me. I really needed that attention. I felt like a little princess :) She took me to Target and bought a package of receiving blankets, some nursing pads, and bought the crib bedding! Along with the matching mobile. So she saved me quite a bit of money! I had wanted a certain one from Target.com, but just the crib sheet, comforter, and bumper pad would have cost $150, plus everything else I had wanted. So yay!! Now I've got extra money to spend on a matching dresser to the crib my mom is gonna buy once we move out. Then I got my nails done. They're acrylic, and I love them :)

My OB appt went well Friday morning, too. I dunno how much weight I've gained total so far. I'd rather not know! I spent like.. 2 minutes with the OB. She said my belly was measuring perfect, the baby's heartbeat is perfect, and I'm still skinny!! HAHA YES! :D

KAMIL & I ARE FINALLY MOVING INTO OUR OWN PLACE.. THIS WEEKEND!!! I'M SO EXCITED, I THINK I COULD PEE MYSELF! This weekend, if the lady wasn't joking around and she does the paperwork like she's supposed to! OH MY GOSH!!!

=============================================

[March 28th, 2008]

Poop today. Just poop! I had an OB appointment this morning. It started out fine, until the nurse left. I waited almost a half hour for the OB to come in. My back started hurting this morning, and as I sat there, it got a lot worse, and the pain started to radiate around to my lower abdomen. I was in worse pain by the time the OB got in there. I told her what was going on, after she asked me about my back (I told the nurse about my back when she asked me how I felt today), and the OB got a little worried and said that she'd measure my belly and get the baby's heartbeat, but then she wanted to do this.. spec test (like a pap smear. can't remember what she called it), wanted to get a swab of something or other, and wanted to check my cervix to make sure it was still closed. My belly measures great, the baby's heartbeat is perfect, but I HATE CERVIX CHECKS! They are seriously THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE THING IN THE UNIVERSE!!!!!! I never want to have one again. And it hurts even more, cuz I'm freaking 8 months pregnant. AHH! I seriously think the OB was trying to get her entire arm up there. I was trying to push away from her hand, it hurt real bad. There ain't no way I'm gonna let a nurse do that once I actually am in labor and up at the hospital! They'll have to strap me down!!

Anyway. They then sent me up to L&D with the test swabby thing, and I had to lay there for an hour to be monitored. The test came back negative, and I wasn't having any other contractions (according to the monitor thing). So they let me go home. Everything checked out just fine. They must have been braxton hicks I was feeling, just a lot more intense than what I've had before. I'm still kind of achy, and I feel like I'm gonna REALLY start my period. Bleh. The joys of pregnancy, aye?

Our townhome is amazing though :) We've been there a week as of today, and I love it. We still have a mess to clean up and organize, and our neighbors are loud and inconsiderate, but I'm out on my own! It's actually a little weird.. I like it, but then I'm used to having my mom or dad there! I'm such a baby. I cried like a baby the first night, cuz I thought of how alone my bunnies were in my dad's warehouse, and how scared they must be, and they're so little, and must hate me cuz I left them there, and then it escalated into my mom being home alone with just the dog, and how alone she must feel (my brother and step-dad are in FL. Lucky shits.), and poor Kamil.. Lol!! He was snuggled behind me, rubbing my back, rubbing my belly, holding me as close to him as my belly would let him, trying to console me. He kept telling me my bunnies were just fine, they were happy there cuz they see me a lot more, and my mom is fine, and the dog will protect her (He's a mutt. Half shitzu half something else, and he's tiny and retarted. I'm not stupid haha). Poor Kamil! I don't think I'd be able to handle being a married man and having a pregnant wife! Holy crap. The agony!!!

I love being pregnant :)

Hello beautiful mommies! I'm here, on the internet.. AT MY HOUSE!! haha, I'm so excited!! The guy came this morning and hooked it up, along with cable tv :D So I'll no longer be bored on days that I sit home alone! Woooo!! Anyway. My last OB appointment went well I guess. I've lost a pound. They didn't seem alarmed though, so tis good. I told them about my legs and feet swelling, and about how I get really sick to my stomach all of a sudden, and then I get super dizzy - all for no reason. The ob said that my blood pressure was great, so I don't need to worry about that. But she wanted me to get some blood drawn so they could run a couple tests. I guess one was to see if I'm anemic (I am, and I've got iron pills, but I guess that don't matter to them), wanted to check my blood count, and they wanted to run the same test this time, as they did when I went into the hospital for my MVA, when they found that some of the baby's blood had mixed in with mine. I'm not sure why they wanted to do that test again, but oh well I guess. I'm not worried about it! My next appointment is this coming friday, the 25th. So I guess I'm going every week now!! Wooo! I'm getting sooo close to holding my baby girl.. I can't wait!! This may sound kind of bad, but I'm hoping she comes in 2-3 weeks. That's either my 37 or 38 week mark. She just feels so heavy to me. She's measured bigger than average every time I've had an u/s, so I know if I go all the way to week 40, she'll be ginormous!! Ahh! We have her room all done :) Just waiting to get the crib mattress, and I'm trying to get my husband to take me up to Babies 'R' Us so I can get the swing I want. But other than that, everything is pretty much in order! I don't think we're painting, but oh well. I think I may get some wall appliques that match her bedding. Or maybe just some pictures to hang up, to give the walls a little life, and to distract attention away from the ugly creamy color the walls have been painted. I'll get a picture up when I can. I hope all of you are having an awesome pregnancy! And for those of you lucky ones that already have your little babies, I hope it's everything you imagined and more!

[April 27th, 2008]

Good afternoon :) Had my OB appointment this past Friday. Had to get the Strep B tests done, and they wanted to test for Gonoreeah and Clymedia (haha, definitely don't know how to spell.) I don't have it, but it's routine to check for them, just to be safe. The Strep-B test wasn't bad at all. I thought it was gonna be horrible, but it really wasn't. I had the only male OB doctor this time - Dr. Williams. I really do hope he's the one that ends up delivering our daughter. He's so... gentle. And he's very personable - extremely easy to like. I'm sure Kamil would like him as much as I do if he ends up meeting him. He asked me if there was any problems, like all the OBs do. I said no, just that I felt like I was falling apart! He laughed and said that is a very common comment in this stage of pregnancy. He asked if I was working outside of the home, and I said nope. He was trying to find a way to make me more comfortable. I'm assuming he would have sent me to work with a note telling them it's time for me to take maternity leave. When I laid back so he could check my belly and listen to her heartbeat, just by looking at my belly, he told me that she's growing very well, and that he thinks she'll probably be in the 7 lb range when she's born! I wanted to hug him! I'm so terrified that I'll be giving birth to a 10 lb cabbage head! Although I do think that if she's gonna be around 7 lbs, she needs to be born now! I really want to get an u/s, just so they can give me an estimate of her weight right now. I'm wondering if he thinks I won't make it to week 40. That'd be amazing lol :) I really want to go within the next 2 and a half weeks. I wake up every morning feeling as if I've been run over by a steam roller, and then thrown around a bit. I'm constantly tossing and turning during the night, because my hips become so uncomfortable and start to hurt if I lay on one for too long. Once I'm situated on one hip, I'm comfortable, of course until it starts hurting. But even when I try to turn over, the pain is horrible. And it's not even my hips then! It's like my muscles in my belly are being torn apart. Ahhh! I keep telling my body "ok, you can break my water any time now!" I think this is/will be the longest month of my life!!

=====================================

[May 1st, 2008]
[36w3d]

Hello! My appointment went well this morning. They didn't do anything special. Just measured my belly, listened to my daughter's heartbeat, and the OB talked to me about sleep. I swear, they sometimes act like you're STUPID. Bleh. My husband went with me this time, and sat in the room with me. I was gonna ask if she could check me, but I chickened out, and would have felt weird cuz Kamil was there.. lol. I go back again next Thursday morning. Basically, we're just waiting for my body to start labor!

Kamil and I put her highchair together last night, and after I went to bed, he put together her changing table. I think we've got all the big stuff, now. There's just some odds and ends that need to be picked up. Once I get the motivation, I'm gonna be in her room putting everything how I want it, and hanging up all the clothes that we just got a few days ago. Our daughter really won't need any clothes until she's 2 years old! Well ok.. maybe not 2 lol. But she's got a lot to last her a while, anyway. Although we will need to get some clothing for her this year once it starts to get a little cooler outside.

We bought her coming home outfit :)

========================================

[37w3d]

My OB appointment this morning made me cry :( I went in, hoping they'd check me, and hoping they'd take pity on me for the horrible pain I have in my hips and groin. Needless to say, neither happened! I didn't even get the OB I asked for last time. I had asked for the only male OB, and got the one that doesn't deliver babies, instead. I complained about my pain, and she says "Oh. Just take tylenol." ...?! Ugh! And when I asked about getting an internal done, she says "Nope, we don't do those here unless it's absolutely necessary. Besides, they're uncomfortable. We stick to that judiciously." UGH AGAIN! I hate the fact that I came out and asked, and she refused. I just want to know if I've progressed, to get a little encouragement. Evidentally that's too much to ask for! *sighs* I've gained about 2 lbs since last week, too. Has to be those cookies I've been eating - mint chocolate chip.. SO YUMMY! I can't get enough of them. But if I want any kind of chance of getting this baby weight off once my daughter is born, I really need to watch it! I've been walking these past few days in hopes it'll do something for me. Nothing so far. I'll keep at it though. I'll probably let my husband have his way and give in to sex, too. I'm starting to think sex works better than walking! Ehhh who knows. The least I can do is try!

We're still not entirely ready for the arrival of our little one. I've packed her bag, and we got the base of the carseat installed, but we still need to get the bassinet from my mom's house. I've gotta pack my hospital bags; I want to pick up some glass bottles, cuz I'm tired of hearing about all this BPA crap; Gotta go get a bunch of wipes, and possibly diapers; I still want to get that swing from BRU; and there's just some odds and ends I need to get for both her and I. I feel like I have forever until I go into labor, but then I feel like I haven't got much time to get everything we still need! I hate this waiting game. It really sucks!!

My 25 hour headache finally went away earlier today. It took yet another 3 hour nap for it to disappear. But I'm glad it did! I felt sooo much better after I woke up. I even went for a walk and got myself a slurpee! I've been cleaning for the past 2 hours or so, and I still feel great. I think the headache is from a lack of sleep. I honestly sleep better during the day, when I can have the windows open, and am sleeping on the couch. I keep the bedroom window open at night, but Kamil always complains that it's too cold, and that I'll get sick, and then get the baby sick. Bleh. Having the window open is the only way I can partially breath at night! I'm hoping the stuffy noses and the inferno temps I feel will go away once I give birth. Alright, I need to find something else to eat (2 pieces of pizza didn't quite do it for me!) and then I want to finish cleaning before Kamil gets home from work. Maybe I can get a massage out of him tonight... =]

[37w6d]

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!! Kamil claims that I'm not yet a mommy, that I have to wait until next year to get something from him.. HAH! I told him I became a mother the day I got pregnant. I feel more like a mommy every day.. Especially as my princess's due date gets closer and closer! I told Kamil all day yesterday, to prepare to get "the call" from me today, while he's at work =] I just have this "feeling" that it'll happen this week, if not today. I'd love for it to happen today, though. What an amazing Mother's Day gift! I'm hoping Kamil will come home with something for me.. lol. Even if it's only a card! He'll be getting something for me and his baby girl on Father's Day.. even though he'll be the one that has to eventually pay for it.. LOL ;] I hope all of you mommies and mommy-to-bes have an amazing Mother's Day, and I hope you get something, even if your little one isn't here quite yet!

So I thought I'd give a little update on my Mother's Day =] Kamil came home for lunch, and gave me a really big bear hug and told me Happy Mother's Day, kissed me, and then my belly. That made my day, only because I didn't think he'd even tell me! We had lunch, and as he was leaving, he asked me what I wanted for MD. I told him nothing, that the hug and telling me were enough =] He left for work, and got out a few hours later at 7. We live like.. 8 mins away from where he works. When he wasn't home by 7:30, I called to see what was going on - he was just parking the car out front. I was sitting on the couch working on the baby's blanket when he came in. He had a bag with him, but I didn't ask about it, just said Hi babe. He came up behind me and handed me a card and an african violet plant =D On the envelope of the card it said "Mallory - Mommy to be". The card is hilarious! It's got a mommy cat soaking in the bath tub and says "Pamper yourself on Mother's Day... Run a bubble bath, light some candles, play soft music..." On the inside, it says "... and hang this on the doorknob." The back of the card is actually a doorhanger that says "GO AWAY! ALL OF YOU!! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" LOL!! I laughed so hard. I'll have to hang it up tonight.. bahahah. And then later that night, he took me out to Applebees, and then we watched a movie when we got home. He ended the night with a "Happy Mother's Day!" again =] I feel so special... I know moms all over are treated on their day, but this is my first one, even though my daughter isn't quite here yet, and it just amazed me that he did all this for me! I knew I loved my husband for some reason... =] Ok, I've gotta quit procrastinating and put the rest of the groceries away. Hopefully his love for me will stop him from freaking out when he sees that I spent almost $200 on groceries earlier.. LOL!
