I'm doing good. Waiting for my next appointment it is Nov 5th at 11:00. I'm still having problems with nausea on and off but I feel good today. Stephanie is insisting the baby is a Boy actually to be specific it's " My Brother". Hopefully it is or she'll be mad at me. We don't have a sonogram date yet but it will be the end of Nov. begining of Dec. When I get a date I'll post it. I'm at week 16 if you want check the top tab pregnancy by week it's got some good info. Well thats all for today.

Nov. 5th

I'm doing great today. I had my appointment today everything is great. The baby's heart beat sounds great. I should have my sono appointment date soon. Dr. Huston said if they don't call me by the end of this week to call him and he'll take care of it. I love my doctor he gets thing done. So hopefully I will have a sono app. posted by next week latest. My next regular appointment is Dec 3rd. I'm at 147 lb my prepregnancy weight is 135 lb. so I've already gained 12 lb so a little over normal "haha" try twice whats recomended. I'm running the same as my last two pregnancies and I lost that weight so I'm not too worried about it. Well I'll post again when I get my sono date. bye all.

Nov. 6th

Nov. 11th

It's our Anniversary today!!! It wasn't a normal anniversary, but there was some up points. I've been having some problems lately ( long story won't get into it) So today I had to go get my oxygen levels checked because I've been out of breath. So for our Anniversary we got to go to the hospital. They did the whole work up EKG test ,oxygen, blood pressure, pee test. On the up side though Gary got to hear the heart beat for the first time today. That was a great anniversary present from the baby. Oh and Heart beat was great 151. My mom left a silly Anniversary song on our voice mail first thing this morning then called back to tell us Happy Anniversary again. Then my dad was razen me about buying me a pink cell phone, ya just gotta love them. So like I said not normal, but it was good. Well I guess I'll talk with you all later.

Nov. 26th

My sono is friday!! I can't wait, this week is going to go by so slow. I'm having a relaxing day just cleaning everything up around the house, and later I'm running into town to grab a few things. Baby is constantly moving now. At first I thought He/she was going to be a calmer baby then the girls, but in the last week my belly has once again turned into party central. Well hopefully when I post again I'll know if it's a boy or girl. I can't wait. : )

Nov. 30th

The sono went great our little girl is at 15 oz. Everything checks out great her heart beat was 146, and she is right on for her growth. Me on the other hand has gained 18 lb so far. I'm up to 153 lb. I am over half way done. My goal is not to gain more then 47 lb (what I gained my two previous pregnancies) I know I can loss that much because I have twice already. I'll post again soon. Talk with you all later.

Dec. 14th

I'm 23 weeks today, and I'm doing great. Danielle is kicking up a storm. She kicks so hard sometimes that it hurts. She is going to be strong and active just like her sisters. The girls can't wait to meet her. Ashleigh goes nuts when she sees a baby. I'm over half way there and time seem to be moving right along I don't think the wait will be that bad ( though I may have a differant opinion at the end when I'm so big i can't get out of a chair with out help). Not to much going on here I'm planning on next weekend cleaning out the babies room and setting everything up. It'll be fun getting out all those little outfits and buying a few new ones!! Well I think thats all for now hope everyone else is doing well.

Jan. 5th

I've been so busy lately. I have the baby's room all done except I want to buy a new dresser, but I still have lots of time left to do that. I'm showing more and more everyone thinks I'm farther along then I am! I have my next apointment monday I'm kinda afraid of what my weight will be. On the up side as far as I can tell almost all my weight is in my stomach. Everyone has been telling me how cute I look so I guess I'm not doing to bad. The baby is kicking up a storm all the time. She is already keeping me up at night. Well I think thats all for now I'll try to post again soon.

Feb. 4th

I have been so busy the kids have been sick. I have finally been able to surface this weekend it is so nice to get back to normal. I never updated after my last appointment and my next one is wensday. Everything was good at my last appointment I had a big weight gain of 14 POUNDS. so hopefully I'll get better news wensday so that brings my total gain so far to 32lb. that was around week 26 I think. I am now 30 weeks (does happy dance) we will see if i get one more 4 week appointment or if I'll get switched to 2 weeks I'll try to update sooner this time. Danielle has been moving all over the place but I've already noticed she isn't rolling as much now it's punches, kicking, and stretching. When she streches look out it really hurts this little girl already has some good strength. If she is as active when she comes out as she is now she is going to give everyone a run for their money.

Feb. 6th

Well my appointment went good. NO weight gain so I'm still 167lb with a total weight gain of 32lb so far. I measured perfect so that was good news. Danielle was moving allover the place and kicking the doppler. My next appoinment is feb. 20th. So I am now going every two weeks then at 36 weeks I'll be going weekly. Not to much going on I'll update again after my next appointment if not sooner.

Feb. 21st

My appointment was yesterday and everything checked out I'm at 171 lb now so a total weight gain so far of 36 lb. Danielle is head down, and the dr. said she could still move but it would be unlikely so that is one more step closer to birth. I've had a couple of braxton hicks contractions though nothing to shout about, but I'm sure I'll have more in the weeks to come. My next appoinment is March 6th it's in the afternoon, and that could be bad because Ashleigh will probably be ready for a nap right in the middle of my appointment. So I could have a real crabby kid on my hands, but we can always hope for the best. On a bright note we are doing belly pictures saturday I'll be 33 weeks. So I'm looking forward to that. Then sunday we are going down to highland for a friends daughters baby shower. My hubby is looking forward to that, because when I'm at the shower with our girls he will be at his friends house hanging out and playing pool and who knows what else. Well I'll let you know how my next appointment goes with it being in the afternoon, and if they put me on weekly visits then or give me one more bi-weekly visit.

March 6th.

I had my appointment today. It went real good both the girls were well behaved. When they called my name for labs Stephanie jumped up and said "thats us" the ladies in the office got a real kick out of that. My weight only went up 1 lb. so it puts me at 172 total weight gain of 37 lb. not to bad. Danielle's heartbeat was good it was cute she had the hickups so we kept getting rythmic little thumps trying to listen to the heartbeat. Stephanie was insisting we call the baby by her name. So when we left and Dr. Huston was saying good bye to us all he said bye Danielle. He is so good with the kids when I bring them with me (pretty much every appointment). Today was my step b test (ick), but at least I'm done with it. I have one more bi-weekly appointment March 18th. Then I'll go to weekly. I'm closing in I have 5 weeks 2 days left. I'll update again soon. Bye for now.

March 19th

I had my appointment yesterday. Everything was great Danielle finally held relatively still so Dr. Huston could get her heart beat with out chasing her around. My weight was 173 so total weight gain of 38 lb. I only have 3 & 1/2 weeks left. Next week I get to see one of the partners because mine is going to be on vacation. then i'm back with my Dr. April 4th. I don't know when my appointment will be next week they are suppost to call me when they find a spot. I'm starting to get to the real uncomfortable stage of pregnancy it's getting harder to get up from sitting and Gary laughs at me getting in and out of the van. The other day I said I felt like I had a bowling ball under my shirt, and my smartalic husband said my stomach was bigger then a bowling ball. : ) I've had a few more BH contractions a couple have actually been real uncomfortable, but not to the pain point yet. I'll update next week after my appointment when ever that will be.

March 24th.

I had my appointment today. The Dr. was nice but I'll be glad when my regular Dr. is back. I'm doing good having more and more BH contractions. Danielle's heart beat was nice and steady. I've gained 3 more pounds 176 lb so total weight gain 41 lb. I have somethings to due still but after april 1st I'll have everything done I keep telling Danielle feel free to come out anytime after that. Well not to much going on I'm just plugging away one day at a time. I'll update after April 4th if I'm still pregnant thats when my next appointment is. I'll have an internal then so hopefully I'll have some news of thing progressing.

April 6th

I had my appointment April 4th and everything checked out great as usual. He said I'm dialated 1 almost a 2, but I'm still pretty thick. On a good note he did conferm that Danielle has dropped. I only gained one pound so 177 lb with total weight gain of 42. So I still have a five pound window before I hit my previous pregnancy weight gains. Gary thinks my stomach is bigger this time so I may not reach the weight gain but I think Danielle will be bigger then her sisters. We will see I bought 0-3 mo outfits for her to wear and not NB so hopefully I guessed right. I did alot of yard work yesterday hoping to bring on labor, but I'm still here. I hope I don't go over my due date. I have 6 days left. My next appointment is Friday April 11th the day before I'm due so we will see if I make it or not.

April 11th

Well I'm still here, and on top of that no progress everything was the same as last week. Well except my weight gain I gained 3 more pounds so now I'm at 180 with a total gain of 45 lb so only two pounds to go until I hit my normal pregnancy gain. I told my dr. I was just going to go home and pig out and gain those last two pounds so she would come out already. I have another appointment for tuesday the 15th I'll be three days overdue by then so we will see what is up then if she doesn't suprise me and come out before that.

April 15th

Well here I am 3 days over due. No real progress instead of 1.5- 2 cm I am a solid 2 cm now still 50% effaced Danielle did drop down alittle more. He won't induce me until I am at 3 cm or my sono shows a need. On that note I have a sono schedualed for Monday the 21st along with seeing my dr. hopefully I won't make it to then. On a really great note though I lost 2 pounds. I am now at 178 lb total gain is down to 43. We will see what happens I just went on a two mile walk to see if anything would happen keep your fingers crossed for me.
