Hey, My name is Rikki, This is going to be my first baby...I am due on May 26, 2008. I love being pregnant but can't wait to meet our Baby.
May 21, 2008
Well had my doctors appointment today.. doctor says i am 100% effaced and 3cm dilated, he did a membrane sweep to see if that would get things going...later in the afternoon my contractions were getting to 2-3 mins apart for 4 hours.. finally went in to labour and delivery at 10:30 pm today and no progress.. still 3 cms..I can't even believe this is happening.. it is taking so long!! I am having so many contractions..I have to take gravol at night to make me sleep or else I throw up all night long..oh i just feel like this is never going to actually happen for me....
May 13, 2008
Well was in labour and delivery last night.. still only dialted 1 cm and 85% effaced...had a doc appointment today and now I am 2 cm and almost completely effaced..making progress just very slowly...having contractions all day today.. the doc said she thought I would either deliver today or tomorrow.. it's so not looking like that is happening though..ahhhh we will have to see....
May 3, 2008
Well my baby shower is tomorrow.. I am finally off bed rest and able to do what I want...had to go to the hospital yesterday cause I pulled the ligaments around my uterus.. ahh it hurt so bad..I am 75% effaced and 1 cm Dialated..also lost my plug yesterday...YUK.. so it could be a few days or a few weeks I guess we will have to wait and see... Baby Jaiden is doing great though.. strong heart beat and wiggling around still... can't wait to meet him.
April 24,2008
Got back from my doc appointment/ Ultrasound...Baby Jaiden is weighing in at 6 pounds 7 ounces.. my goodness he is a big boy.. I posted a new ultrasound pic.. I am so in love with my little man....I cannot wait to meet him..he is my world! I am moving in two days.. yay I can finally get some stuff done for my little miracle boy...
April 10,2008
I had to redo the glucose test today! They lost my results from the first time I did it...ahh I was not impressed.. thats my vent....on a good note baby Jaiden is weighing in at 5 pounds 1 ounce and doc says he is perfect for his dates and that 5 pounds is perfect for 33 weeks just incase anyone is wondering......I love my little man.. he is so worth every minute of everything i am going through right now
March 18,2008
Well I just got home from the hospital...i was in there for five days..i wemt into labour on thursday night... they stopped the labour and now i am home on in home care...a nurse comes to my place to check on me and the baby... Jaiden is doing great though..3 pounds 6 ounces...my cervix is funneling and i am 75% effaced but not dialating.. so i think he will hold on a little while longer....
March 2, 2008
Well I am back from my trip to Florida! Baby enjoyed the trip lots.. he was kicking and bouncing around the whole time...he kept me up all night!! LOL I am getting very big.. people were asking me if I was ready to deliver!!! Ahhh and i still have almost three months to go! LOL oh well...I am just very glad the baby was good and stayed put (I really didn't want to deliver in a far away place.. and pay..seeing as how I live in Canada and don't have to pay anything!!)
February 17, 2008
Well 26 weeks tomorrow...I had my ultrsasound on friday and I am very happy to say my amniotic fluid is just perfect and my cervix is still long and closed!! I think he gonna hold on for me in there...Yay...My little man is actually measuring a week and a half ahead of his dates but they don't want to change my due date cause at this point I guess babies grow at different rates..I am so glad my little man is doing great...His heart rate was 141 BPM at the ultrasound as well...And yay I actually get to go on my trip to florida in 5 days.. my doc says it's ok!!! I am very excited... New ultrasound pics in my photobook as well!!
February 14, 2008
Yay..it's Valentines Day..we found out our our appointment yesterday that everything is looking ok... I am going to be having an ultrasound every two week to make sure baby is growing ok and to make sure my amniotic fluid level stays up...cervix is still closed and long but they will be monitoring that closely too...Oh well that means I get to see my baby boy every two weeks...I'm just so relieved I am finally getting the medical attention I need!!
February 3,2008
Yay February...24 weeks soon....We are thinking our Baby Boys name will be Jaiden James.....but not completely sure...I bought a summer infant Heartrate monitor and i love it.. i hear him kick with it all the time but if i catch him napping i can hear his heartbeat..so cool.. can't wait till May!!!!
January 30,2008
Had my doctors appointment today.. baby's heart rate was about 140 BPM... he is happy and healthy.. i got my ultrasound results back from my 20 week scan and everything is perfect....I love my baby boy so much...my uterus is measuring at 26 weeks though so i dont know what that means.. i might be having a huge baby..lol My contractions have slowed down a lot and my cervix is still completely closed...Yay!!!
January 27, 2008
Well i was in the hospital till 12 am last night..having regular contractions...they cannot figure out why i am getting them. They send a sample to find out if maybe it is caused by a UTI.. so we will see...the contractions are not dialating my cervix at all so that is a very good thing!!!I need my little boy to hold on in there and at least try and make it to 30 weeks.. im really nervous but trying to relax as best i can!! I have another appointment next week so we will see how it goes.. please keep my little boy in your prayers!!! Thanks. hope everyone is doing well..
January 16, 2008
Please help me pick a name for my baby boy!! 
January 11, 2008
It's a BOY!!! yay... my boyfriend and I are so excited. I can't believe how much I love my little boy already...He is very active and the ultrasound showed that he is doing very well and i guess he is a cubby baby! LOL His belly is very round!! All i know is he is so cute!! I can't wait till I get to meet him.
January 2,2008
Baby is kicking now (kinda hard sometimes!!!) I definately know that the baby likes going to the movie theatre!! LOL I am so excited for May!!!!!
December 20, 2007
Yay, I get to have my ultrasound on January 11th..I am so excited. We hope everything is moving along just as it should and hope the baby is doing great. I just really want a healthy baby! Getting bigger by the day now...or so it seems. My baby flutters are becoming closer and closer to kicks.. I can't wait till my baby hauls off and gives me a good boot to the belly!

Hey there~ Have you tried that Castor Oil yet? I tried it two days ago and it didnt do anything for me, just gave me bad cramps. Anyway, im just bored out of my mind waiting on my little boy to come!! Good luck with everything hon
MommyJewels - Saturday, 24 May
Rikki-
Sorry to hear about your false alarm! I just keep praying that your babes will come soon.
About the weight gain. You will be able to get it off much easier than you think. I gained 45 pounds with HYPEREMESIS because of that blasted bed rest. I really porked up at the end and then during my induction I probably went up even more with all the IV fluids. ANYHOW...today is day 9 of his life. I have done nothing but sit on my bum and breasteed. As of this morning I have lost 23 pounds:) I was amazed:)
mumof5kids - Saturday, 24 May
thought id pop by after seeing your waters may have broken this morning (here)..or night is prob more acurate where you are??????? anyway hope alls ok and this time you are going to be holding you lil boy ...take care and speak soon, i have enjoyed reading all your posts on the main 39 page,,, along with all the others... good luck
kristalsfirst - Saturday, 24 May
I have the same play pen as you! i love the zanzibar theme... my crib set is zanzibar too shannondawnb - Saturday, 24 May
Ok, im freaking out with excitment for you, it HAS to be your water, i can t wait to hear from you. Goodluck sugar, be strong!!!! I wish you luck and health.
MamaMissy - Saturday, 24 May
Hey! I saw your comment on the weight gain. I gained a good 40 pounds myself. My daughter is only 9 days old and I've already lost 23 pounds, and I still have more water weight to lose - and my milk is also in, so I've probably lost even more. I was shocked! So don't worry - it'll come off. =)
noodle - Friday, 23 May
MY Ob told me it does replenish itself until you're in full on labor and that has proven true with me...I "lose it" many times over the last few weeks B4 baby, and when I see a little blood with, then I'm really close. That's me. (:
katznkt - Thursday, 22 May
Thanks for the advice, I think I am going to call down to L&D to see what they say, tho they will prolly tell me to wait till they are closer together. I am excited though, this is the first time I have had timeable contractions!
katznkt - Thursday, 22 May
Mine are coming every 8-10 minutes apart lasting 45 sec or so and my lower back kills my, my lower stomach aches really bad and sharp, my tummy tightens, but I dont feel any pain above my belly button on my tummy.
False labor you think?
katznkt - Thursday, 22 May
Rikki- what do your contractions feel like? I have had some bh contractions, even a bit of false labor, but today my back and lower tummy have been super achey- like how i feel with my period sometimes. Now I just had a contraction like thing that happened a minute ago that I felt pretty strongly in my back and stomach (again, mostly lower abs) and my stomach tightened with it. Is that a labor contraction, or does it have to be your whole stomach that feels the contraction?
sorry, i just thought you would be the resident go-to person on contractions :)
hope all is well with you!
taliyahsmom - Wednesday, 21 May
yep im only 38+1 weeks!! but i REALLY hope we both go into labor today or tomarrow!! good luck! let me know if anything happens!! :)
taliyahsmom - Wednesday, 21 May
ok wow....so from your last post we sounds like we are in the exact same boat here lady! i found out im 3cm today also (thats up from 2cm last week) and im 90% effaced and i ALSO have an apt next wed!! wow we rock! oh!!! and i ALSO got my membranes stripped today!!! haha hopefully something happens for us! :) good luck!
MommyJewels - Wednesday, 21 May
It is frustrating to me that they won't help you out at all. If I hadn't had the pre-eclampsia I probably wouldn't have done an induction...but I would have had them strip my membranes etc. BUT...you are having pain, throwing up and having a very rough time. It's not a normal case and I wish that they would help you out. I guess keep going to L&D if you are suffering and hopefully they will take care of you!!!!!!
IraqiMom - Wednesday, 21 May
hey hony just wanted to say hang on there!! you are strong woman!! cant wait to hear from you that gave birth so you dont have to suffer no more good luck huny take care!!!
MommyJewels - Wednesday, 21 May
Honey! I am so sorry to hear about your laboring for so long. I wasn't in labor nearly as long as you but I know that the delayed laboring at home getting nowhere is NOT fun. Even after all I went through keeping him in and the delayed labor...when I was induced I didn't have him for 27 hours after the induction started!!!!!!!! Even after everything and pushing for THREE hours my cervix was not FULLY 10cms. It was safe to push but there was still a little lip. I know it is frustrating, but hang in there. I am so glad that we worked so hard to keep our babies IN. It was heartbreaking to see my little man losing so much weight and having to be in the photolight treatment. I could only hold him during feedings and I couldn't IMAGINE having a preemie.
I know what you are going through is very tough. You want to hold him in your arms. What they say about everything you went through being worth it...it's SO true. I would go through that pregnancy over and over for the rest of my life for just a couple moments with this baby. Being a Mommy is the best thing life has to offer. Before you know it, you will be holding that little man in your arms----you'll be OUT of pain and you'll be a MOMMY!
MommyJewels - Wednesday, 21 May
Thank you! I am going to update my page and try to get back to this site tomorrow:) I will be sending you baby dust:)
hotcaligirlz - Monday, 19 May
Dang you sound like your ready to go! My mom went into labor too and never dialated past 2 so they did a csection. Sometimes you have to get crazy with your Dr. I had to for her to put me out of work. I was bleeding and spotting at about 7 1/2 months working like 12hrs a day I was loosing it mentally and my husband told her you put her out she and the baby are not in a healthy enviorment. So she did and has been super cool since then. I hope baby decides to pop out for you very soon!!
hotcaligirlz - Monday, 19 May
No worries at all. I didnt take it that way. Its just some woman get so out of control when they hear c-section but its ok. No matter what happens you just want a healthy out come for you and the baby you know. It is kind of nice to know when the baby is going to be out! lol Thanks for the kind words... i will post some pictures for sure!!!
