Lilypie Expecting a baby Ticker anyone got a myspace page and wants to chat look me up atmyspace.com/sandyazlb send me a friend request and check out my baby's pics there too

8/27 So here is the birth story it was august 22nd and the hospital called me at 3pm and asked are you ready to have this baby??? Like yes!! I have been ready for a week. Anyhow I got there at 4pm and they did all the necessary paperwork and such and then put in the IV and put cervadil around my cervix to soften me up. Looks like a lassoo(sp?) and it needs to stay in place for 12 hours. After that which it is now 5am the next day they started the pitocin drip. Slowly at first so that I wouldn't have these wild and crazy contractions. After about 12 hours of that I was dilated to a 3 and they upped the pitocin. After a few hours the nurse asked how the contractions were feeling? Contractions did not realize I was having any yet the chart showed I was. 1pm my doctor came in and was checking to feel for the head and my water broke. This is now thursday by the way. I figured cool not too much longer to go now...not really. Anyway now they started uping the pitocin every hour starting at 5pm to get this little one going. At midnight I was still only a 3 dilated. Man I did not want to get a cesarian. Anyway they suggested an epitural to relax me. I agreed. The anesthesiologist was fabulous. He hooked me up. Anyway by 3am we called my husband to come back I was at an 8 dilated. My sister was there so he could get some rest and take care of our 3 doggies. And we only live 10 minutes from the hospital. After about 3 hours I was finally ready to push it was about 6am. I did well felt the contractions but they were not painful. Great anethesiologist. So at 716am little dana was born. The aftermath sucked a lot. I started having terrible pain from being confined to a bed a delivery bed at that which is not meant to spend 2 days in. Every muscle and bone hurt in my body and I started crying and then the nurse refused to give me anything because she gave me percossetts but I threw those up within minutes of getting them. So she watched me cry histerically for about 20 minutes and then finally my sister told her she had better give me something or hell was gonna break loose. She gave me staydol in my IV and I was out like a light for 3 hours and woke up to an all over body massage. That was more like it. I would do it all over again if I had too. So worth it all. She is just everything we could have hoped for.baby dana 2nd day born

baby dana at 10 minutes old

here she is one more time I love this photo we got at the hospital when she was 16 hours old. She's got a good tight grip on mommy and daddy( even more so now figuritively and actually) lol...I just love this little angel..

Ok so here are some updated photos of our priceless little angel. She is starting to like her toys especially her bouncer and play gym. We get about 15 minutes or so out of them but that is less I am holding her. Not that I don't enjoy that but sometimes mom needs a break.

I am eating good. Mom just loves this picture it shows off my big baby blues....just like daddy she says. Mom gots green eyes but blue is really pretty too.



Thursday, 4 Oct

well today is a better day Dana decided to take her regular naps after a day of no naps yesterday which was a nightmare. Thank goodness for naps today got some housework done. Yesterdays and todays. The only good part to that whole mess was the 8 hours she slept in a row last night and no they were not worth it so much easier to have her nap and get up every 4 hours.

THURSDAY OCT 18TH

Ok so here she is with her biggest smile ever. She is even giggles by accident but cooing and ohing and ahhhing on purpose. She is too cute.

Here I am again smiling for mommie...

getting sleepy after a good feeding..and a loud burp!!

well here are some new pics she is just growing so fast....

Ready for cooler weather with my hat and jacket

yep she slept right through her first visit with Santa...cutie though isn't she?

Saturday, 16 Feb

Well no new pics gotta get on that ASAP however my little angel is now rolling both ways tummy to back and back to tummy and she is a pro at it now. She can roll across the floor too!! She is eating solid foods stage 2 gerber her favs are Mixed Veggies and Apple cherries or Apple blueberries. She is eating an entire container at a sitting. Which is basically 2 a day!!! She is sleeping through the night now has been for a week and she is Sleeping in her own crib...Whoo hoooooooo!!!! :) :) :) Oh yeah and she is saying DADA DA DA well isn `t that something..also ba ba ba. Grabs the bottle from me and jams it in her mouth...so much in the last 2 weeks I can hardly believe it.

Well my husband got Dana to say Mama it was the day before my birthday. He got me a video phone for my birthday and gave it to me early and on Saturday he sent me a video at work of her saying Mama. Oh boy thought for sure I was gonna cry..then for like an hour that night on the baby monitor all I could her was mama mama mama mama ..it is a catch 22 because if I go to her she is gonna know that she can call me and I will come but not just for nothing you know??

Well here is one of the new photos of my little one. She is getting so big and finally growing some hair!! Maybe she will have a full head of it by the time she is one...haha

Ok a quicky update. No teeth as of yet 3/26/08 however Dana is now rolling all over the place she just flips over and over and over and back again. She is up on all fours rocking and lunging so I know it is just a matter of time until she crawls for real. She says mama dada nono nana baba and she is experimenting with tones from a high pitch to a low gravely slow babble. She is too cute. She is eating solid foods, hates peas just like mommie actually she gags and sticks her tongue out when I try to feed them to her..and she hates peaches don't know why and she does not like banannas. However everything else is a go..especially apple anything. And sweet potatoes or carrots. She enjoys puffs a lot she absolutely loves to feed herself if only she could figure out how to use a spoon. I just have to be patient and let her keep practicing. Guess that is all for now....

June 9,2008

So we finally popped a tooth through about a week ago and I never even knew it was coming she had no fever no fussing no nothing just one day I noticed she was trying to push something out of her mouth with her tongue and upon investigation noticed a tiny corner of a tooth. We are now pulling up on furniture and crawling the baby indy500 like a pro. She is standing on her own for 8 seconds. Also she can do patty cake and is eating more of our foods too.

Thanks for the info! I was one of those that was on the pill for about 8 years and got pregnant the month I stopped:) It was so easy last time I don't want to go in thinking it will be the same this time especially if it ends up not being quite as easy. I am thinking I will do the same as you and just try to figure out when I am ovulating based on my cycle and hopefully it works out. Now it is just deciding when I should stop the pill. I would be starting my new pack on Sunday so I have a few days to decide if this is the month I quit...:) You would think it would be easier to decide if you are ready for a second after you have one, but I am still nervous!! Thanks again, Sandy!! And again...I am so excited for you and your family!

That is definitely awesome:) Just out of curiousity...did you go back on the pill after Dana and then just stop when you were ready to try or did you guys not use anything and you just knew when you were ovulating? We are thinking about trying here again within the next few months and I went back on the pill after Anna. I don't want high expectations of getting pregnant as quickly as I did with Anna, so I was just wondering what you did:) If you don't care to share, that is completely fine!

Just had to tell you CONGRATS!!!! I am so excited for you:)

Hey there, I was 39 when I conceived Joe, 40 when he was born and despite my age would love another baby. But we haven't decided for sure yet so we're not TTC. And if it gets much later I don't think we'll try, Joe is perfect and happy and has totally fulfilled me. I have a brother and sister and I think if you have siblings you sort of want your child to have them. Or maybe that depends on how you get along ha ha. I wanted children early, it didn't happen for me until I met Joe's daddy though. I know they say there are more risks as you get older, but I have looked into this alot recently, and I don't think at my age, and certainly not at your age, there is too much to be concerned about. So good luck Sandy! Hope you have a fabulous pregnancy. Oh and I'll let you know if we plan no2!! ;-)))))

Hi, ladies, I've not been on here like i use to... Sorry. I just wanted to update you guys on my doctors appointment yesterday. I passed my Glucose Exam. That's a pluss i was worried, now i know why i kept having dizzy spells, I'm Anemic, so now i'm on iron pills... Oh and the most shocking news.. My baby is Measuring 2 weeks ahead in length.... Oh my Gosh! I'm still a little scared because she emphasized that he's a big baby...... = ) Other than that i've been getting normal Braxton hick contractions. I have another doctors appointment in 3 weeks. July 21... whoa time is flying...

babyJSL - Saturday, 28 June
Thanks for responding! I thought we still need to burp them after every feeding. So I've been wasting my time. hehheeehe. I guess they're not babies anymore. Well he is turning 9months next week. Thanks again for sharing your experience.


JenMN - Friday, 27 June
Hahah that sounds cute - Dana smushing her lips on yours! Connor doesn't quite having the kissing thing down (just the motion of his hand from his mouth when he imitates me blowing a kiss). Sometimes if I try to kiss him on the lips he'll open his mouth like he's trying to bite me LOL so I usually just kiss his cheeks :)


tgal - Thursday, 26 June
Thanks:) She definitely has some cheeks (and thighs at that)!! If you are looking for a pool we got Anna one at Babies R Us that was only $6. She loves it and it is the perfect size for her (picture in my photos). Have fun!


tgal - Wednesday, 25 June
