Get your bags packed early just in case you need them. Make sure your partner has a phone available when he's away because this baby just might come early. We predict your baby will come 2-3 weeks early. Your baby will most likely be born in the morning. Justmommies predicts that your baby will weigh approximately 7.3 pounds and that your labor will be about 14 hours long.

Let's hope so!!!

I figured I should start a journal on here. Keep track of what has happened so far in these past 9 weeks! Maybe it will help some people.. or maybe it will make me feel better. HAHA SO...
The first symptom I noticed, my boobs hurt SO BAD. Before I even knew I was pregnant I was complaining about my boobs feeling like bowling balls. It was pretty normal for me to get soreness and tenderness as PMS so I didn't think about it too much. Yadda yadda.. I tested and it was positive (5 times positive Thank you Clear Blue Easy!) WOW!!! We tried to get pregnant for almost 8 months! Fast forward... over the past 8 weeks I have had to pee like a racehorse as soon as I wake up! I have grown a cup size already! Unforntunately, I graduated to maternity clothes already.. the bloating was too much for me to squeeeeeeeeze into my fat jeans. HAHA, I haven't really craved anything.. but beef makes me feel like crap. And no puking (YAY) but I am pretty much nauseous about 80% of the day. Now, surprisingly since I hit 9 weeks, its like a lightswitch. My boobs don't hurt, I am not really peeing all the time.. just in the mornings! I am not getting nauseous that much anymore Maybe at night, but that's it. But beef is still making me feel bad. The only new thing that sprung up.. I have acne.. UGH. BEAUTIFUL. And, I keep having dreams that are REALLY vivd. From sexual and non sexual dreams.. they are SO real.. its kinda weird. HAHA more to come!!!

I had my doctor appt. yesterday. Got to hear baby's heartbeat for the first time! I cried.. of course. I am so emotional lately. Poor hubby! Nurse said everything sounded great though. Baby was up at my hip when she found the heartbeat, and she went to turn up the volume for me to hear and ZOOM baby took off! haha Had to find all over again. It was great to hear though. My nausea is getting better, thankfully. Seems now I have about 1-2 bad days out of the week instead of everyday. And I am SO glad just to have that. Apparently even though I feel like I am getting fatter by the day, I have lost a pound and a half. Good I suppose! I am really wanting mac n cheese, bagels with cream cheese, apparently foods loaded with carbs. I am giving in now, just because if I dont eat those foods, then I don't want to eat anything. Pregnancy is so weird! But I love it :)

OUT of the first trimester, thankfully!! I am feeling SO much better than I was just 7 weeks ago! Nausea is almost completely gone (although I am wincing as I type.. I don't want to curse myself!) I still get little waves of it everyonce in a while. I have eaten red meat!! YAY!! But I can't do anything hamburger. No caseroles, hamburgers nothing with ground beef. So strange! The biggest thing.. about 2 days ago I GOT MY FIRST MOVEMENT!!! Little flutters in my belly as I was bending over. So I sat up waited a bit and then I bent over again and got it. HAHA I guess baby didn't like me mashing its home. HAHA felt like popcorn in belly! I love it!!

I am feeling so much better now. My belly is pooching out. Although to me, I feel like I look like I have a beer belly!! HAHA I have a sinus infection I am getting over right now.. which has kept me in bed for the past 3 days miserable. But I am on antibiotics which are helping greatly and I think I will be 100% soon. No real updates.. my BIG ultrasound is scheduled for the 18th of December.. but we are going to put it in a envelope and open it on Christmas morning.. we are cheesy like that!! haha

******************************************************************
December 19, 2007 (20wk 2d)
We had our 20wk ultrasound yesterday. It was amazing! The last time I had seen the baby was at 7 weeks and it was a little bean! Baby was sitting facing out, breech, and hyper as hell!! I guess the chocolate milk I drank before hand made baby spaz out. HAHA. Everything looked wonderful. They didn't get a good picture of the heart because baby was moving too much. But they did get a picture of the sex, and of course hubby and I were too excited to wait a week to open it...
ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Madeline Elizabeth... we will call her Maddie for short! I am so in love!!! James is going to be wrapped around her finger in no time...
******************************************************************
January 15th 24wks1d
I just got back from the doctor. We had to get another ultrasound since she was moving too much the first time to get pictures of her heart. She is looking GREAT! She is 1lb and 9oz now! She has long legs, and looks like she is getting chubby cheeks! Her heart rate was 158bpm! I am so in loooooove! She hasn't made me feel sick in a while. So far, I have gained 8lbs. I think thats ok... I never put on any weight until I was about 20 weeks.. now it seems I am gaining a pound a week! I dont like that.. but I guess its good since she is getting bigger faster now! I am getting a belly. You can def. tell I am pregnant now. I have lovely stretchmarks... its hot. HA, but its a small price to pay for my baby girl!
*******************************************************************
February 8th 27wks5d
I thought I would do a bit of updating. So Madeline is a kicking machine!! I can tell she is getting bigger. I can feel movement low and up higher, like she is kicking and punching at the same time. She is funny though, any time James puts his hands on my belly to feel her, she stops. Like she knows its her daddy. She is a daddy's girl already!! I love laying in bed watching my tummy move. I think its funny when I can see it moving in little ways that I can't even feel. Its like an alien! I have my GD test next week. Oh joy!! I hope that all goes ok. I have been having some Braxton Hicks contractions more lately. Very low pressure when I stand and walk around. I am REALLY hormonal too. Sometimes I feel like I can't keep them undercontrol, but I try! I think I am ballooning up in weight. I don't have a scale.. but I will have to add that when I get back from the doc's office next week!
*******************************************************************
March 9,2008 32 Weeks

I haven't updated in a while! So the GD test went fine. Doc did see that I was a bit anemic, so he prescriped some Iron pills.. oh those are WONDERFUL.. (blech) Hmm.. not much is going on as of late really.. my ankles have started swelling pretty bad if I don't sit with my feet up. So far total weight gain as of last Monday was (eek) 22lbs!!! It just packed on fast!! I was told I have a bladder infection last week so I am on antibiotics for that. Other than that.. not much. James really hasn't felt her move that much. She has kicked at his hand only about 2 times. My mom hasnt felt her at all!! My shower is on the 30th of this month. I can't wait!! I am excited and trying NOT to peek at the registry and see what I am getting. HAHA Other than the usual things.. things are going pretty well. I have wicked heartburn, and getting up in the middle of the night to pee is getting really old. But I suppose I will be getting up in the middle of the night to tend to Madeline when she is here, so not much different. We are painting her room this month.. so I will def I have to put up pics from that when I get it done!!
********************************************************************
March 24, 2008 34 weeks

Nothing really has changed.. but this morning.. lost a big chunk of mucus plug (ohh.. it was hott haha) We are 90% done with the nursery. Got the paint on the walls.. and the doors. Still want to stencil in some things on the walls. And my shower is in a week!! YAY!!!
********************************************************************
April 4th, 2008 35w5d

So I woke up this morning with BAAAAD pains. In the front where my normal period cramps are. I got up to take a shower, maybe that would make me feel better.. but then I was dizzy and nauseous. Fun times.. My blood pressure was up a little bit. I called the doc and went and got checked. Madeline has dropped down (THANK GOD) and my cervix is thinning. He didn't move my due date.. or say anything about me going into labor early. He did say I need to watch my contractions because she is getting ready to come. So now.. we are on our toes.. just waiting.. I am so done...
********************************************************************

April 20,2008 38w

I was having contractions this morning. Back pain since Friday and I was worried about it. I decided to make a trip to L&D since contractions were coming 7 minutes apart, and my BP was rising. They monitored me for high blood pressure and stuff for 3 hours. Nothing.. Not even dialated to ONE. :( So that was kinda disappointing. Back to where I was 3 weeks ago. I am miserable and ready to meet her. Everyone else is being induced or having their babies that are due around me.. and I am just depressed.. but Madeline is healthy.. good HR and stuff. So I guess I will just wait.. story of my life..
********************************************************************

April 26 39w

Nothing new really this week. Doc said I was dialated 1.5CM at my 38w appt. Contractions come on.. and then just stop. Enough to frustrate me.. I am miserable. Completely. I think worse of all.. is when all people are having their babies.. and here I sit. As selfish as that sounds.. I just get more upset. I am totally happy for them.. most are due before me.. lol But.. when I have been having contractions, and started to dialate and all this.. and I get NOTHING.. I just pout.. it doesn't seem fair. haha
Sorry to whine.. nothing else I have to do lately.. cept wait. And I am not the patient one.. obviously.

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to tell you guys about McKenzie! She's doing great, she's saying dada, calls me dama, and baba. She had her first fireworks display last night and she loved every second of it because we where right by where Pittsburgh sets them off, except a few gangbangers decided to have a major fight in the middle of the display. She's official 16lb5oz and 26.5in long. She's crawling like a maniac, trying to stand on her own, which is funny because she's not trying to use any help. She's trying to walk also. She ate a lot yesterday, she had 2 fillets of mallot fish, a banana popsicle, string cheese, and pineapple none of it was baby food either. She was just a eating machine. Talk to you guys later and good luck with your kids, babies to be or making the little ones!
