ETHAN GOT HERE AT 37 WEEKS 3 DAYS

I lost my baby I just found out today (10/16/07) so i am really depressed the babys heart was not pumping and still mesuring 12w 6 d so it was a couple of days after my last appt... so yeah I dont really know how to deal with the loss of a baby I cry everytime someone new comes around i just burst into tears like now im finally not crying but if someone new comes in i will... I cant bring myself to tell my kids that they wont be having a little baby in the house i just cant do it... I know i have to face reality but i dont want to...

Well I am pregnant with my 4th and last child right now I am Due April 11th 2008... at week 10 i woke up at night running to the bathroom where I started to bleed went straight to the ER and they told me i was having a miscarrige a week goes by I go into see my doctor and she told me i just have a subchorionic hemorrhage which was 6cc in the hospital and in a week had gone down to 4cc... I have not had any bleeding and my baby is still wiggling and all the fun stuff they do at this size since 10 wks... I am labled as a high risk pregnancy until the hemorrhage goes away and I see my doctor every 2 weeks for ultra sounds which can be cool since i get to see my baby more than I usually would just want to take this high risk thing out...

Jan 1st, 2008

well its now time to TTC once more honestly We have been trying and nothing yet kinda depressing so i sure hope I have a baby soon... I am still on anti depressents my doctor uped me to 30 mg now she said that being on 20 i should not have 3 bad days out of the week and i have been having bad days so i hope it works... she also told me to stop stressing about getting pregnant and thats when most end up pregnant so i dont know how i can not stress i want my baby so bad that i cant help but not stress about it... she also told me that the meds wont hurt me if i do end up getting prego so thats good news i suppose i have to go back to her in feb for a meds up date and I really hope that by then I will be prego and she can tell me that she has great news for me... that would be wonderfull... well hope all of you have a great new year and LOTS OF BABY DUST TO ALL...

Feb 21st,

Well I went to my 8 week scan today and everything was perfect the placenta was perfect and NO hem so that is great news my baby implanted perfect i know i keep saying that... but i am so happy I got to see my baby's heart beating on my next appt i will get to hear it... that on March 10th she said a month but thats not really a month away thats like 2 weeks lol... I have 2 pictures of my little one like i said so tiny like the size of a thumb but on the us you could see the head and little arms and legs so cool... I so thought we were gonna have twins but we only saw one which is fine with me 2 would be really cool but i will so be happy with just one more healthy baby after all i have 3 children and one stepson and one angel in heaven so thats a lot of children lol... ttyl thanks for reading this

March 10th,

I had my 2nd doctor appt today and it all went great lasted like 10 minutes but she found my baby's heartbeat she said it was 174bpm which was great... plus i gained a pound i already feel like a blimp and in a month i gained a pound... well everything is great this pregnancy that is so promising... good luck to all of you

April 10th,

I had my 3rd doctors appt today and everything was great the heartbeat was 120bpm which she said was normal she even said that the hb will change from each doctor apt and that the hb is not a sign of a girl or a boy that the myth is not true babies just have the same rate most of the time... i have only gained a pound and 1/2... but my next apt i will get an ultra sound to determine the sex... which is gonna be May 13th cant wait... I know i sould be happy as long as i have a healthy baby with 10 fingers and toes but I really hope that i am having a girl i know that sounds bad but i deep down really want a sister for my daughter i have 2 boys and one step son... oh and i told her that i think i feel flutters and she said that i very well could be feeling the baby which is cool when she heard the hb she also heard movement all this in like 10 mins lol...

Well we are having yet another boy his name will be Ethan James everything was perfect with him his hb was 150's and doing good... still due Set 30th... I also found out my brother is also having a boy due a few days later... I really wanted a girl that way my daughter would have a sister but i should be happy with what i have been given...

Well I went into Labor and Delivery at 7:30 am on Friday Sept 12th I was hooked up to the monitor and given the medication to start labor it was weird they said that i could walk around but make sure i came back every hour to get my blood pressure checked I didn't really want to walk heck they even said that i could go get some more food to eat that was news to me my other children they all told me not to eat any thing so yeah that was really weird... I was in the bed for 2 hours and daddy went off to the bank and when he came back around 9:30 I decided to go ahead and walk since Ethan was going back up like floating so I walked for an hour and did get some thing to eat...We did the walk 3 times i believe coming back every hour we decided to not walk after my doctor came back at 12:30 i was starting to have more and harder contractions it was getting too hard to walk so I laid back down and said i am not walking anymore lol... I was dilated to 4cm at this point and I just couldn't see walking anymore around an hour later 1 pm they checked me once more and i was only dilated to 4 still it was getting annoying lol and painful My mom your grandma was their at this point so i said no on the epi at this point the contractions were getting closer... well at 2:30 i decided to get the Epi since the contractions were 30 sec to 1 min apart yet i was still 4 cen dilated and not getting anywhere so i got the epi and still had pain im like this is not working I am still in tons of pain at 3:30 they got me another epi which they added the spinal tap medication into it that was great i didnt feel anything i could swear that my legs were gone lol well the nurse checked me 5-10 mins later and i was 10 cm im like already shes like yes let me go call your doc and dont push at all Im like i dont think i would know if i am pushing or not well my doc got their at 4:00pm and said looks like you ready im like yes and i cant feel anything and i def cant move my legs lol... she goes ok lets to a practice push im like ok they really fast she goes ok STOP im not ready and he is coming out... well 1 push his head was out 2nd push his body was out and i had my little man.... at 4:09 pm weighing 6lbs 9oz 19 1/4 inches long his apgar score was a 9-10 thats great... Well thats about it on that we went to our room like 2 hours later i still couldnt feel my legs lol but i was getting nausiated and i figured it out i was eatting unlike my other children and the medication for the epi you should not eat anything well I was sick feeling all night and everytime i would sit up i would throw up it was bad i hated it.... i started to feel better once they gave me some medication for nausia but other than that i was great....
