4/11/07 - It's been 4 long months since I've been on this site, I love all the changes! I was supposed to be a February mommy, and I miss all my girls, but my son was 10 weeks early, making me a December mommy now! Ethan is doing great! He was 11lbs 1oz at his 4 month check and 23.5in. He was diagnosed with acid reflux (poor baby) and since starting medications for it, he's been a much happier little guy! He coos and giggles and rolls from stomach to back. Pretty much he steals me heart =) Faith has done really well with her new brother, I've been very impressed with her acceptance of the drastic change. She's started a little bit of the "no that's mine!" but all kids do that and it's also part of being a sibling. She'll figure it out! Well, I'm excited to meet all you mommies =)

12/10/07 - I had my baby! You can find the story under my "children" tab!

12/3/07 - I didn't wake up loving Ethan Bryce again. I like Lucas Alexander better...I dunno whats wrong with me. Now my husband doesn't want to change the name though. And I'm afraid that if I talk him into it, I'll change my mind later. DUMB PREGNANCY HORMONES! It just seems like a timeless name to me, one that will still sound good and strong 50 years from now. I guess I'm now one of the ladies that just has to call her baby 'baby'...=(

11/29/07 - Well, I had another ultrasound yesterday and Ethan was being shy as usual. The doctor said that my cervix looks great, so hopefully that means no more preemie babies for me! He weighs exactly 3 pounds now, so he's a little bigger than Faith was at this point. I'm so relieved that things are going so well, but I'm sad I still have more than 2 months before I get to see him! I asked my Peri about laboring at home and having a water birth. She said that these just aren't options for me because of my c-section. She said that the minute my uterus starts contracting I am at risk for rupture, so I need to be in the hospital on monitors immediately. This will most likely be my last biological child (we want to adopt) so I'm upset that I'll never get the natural birthing experience I'm wanting so badly. As long as I don't have to have another c-section though, I'll get over it! I had a dream last night that Ethan was born and I was freaking out in the dream because he didn't 'look' like an Ethan. So we ended up changing his name at the last minute and it was just a disaster. The dream has me second guessing our name choice and I hate it! Its so hard to pick names and I don't want to start back at square one again. We already changed his middle name from Mathew to Bryce, so I DON'T WANT ANYMORE CHANGES! Hopefully this will pass and I'll wake up tomorrow and love the name again. Come on Ethan Bryce!

11/12/07 - My little man feels like he never stops moving and I LOVE it! It is however, the only thing that is getting me through this pregnancy! I'm so tired of hurting and being exhausted, at least I know the end result is so worth it. Seeing my daughter everyday totally reminds me of that. I know she's mine so of course I think she's the greatest, but she just makes me so happy! She's such a beautiful little girl. Her spirit is so pure and special. She thinks everything is new and amazing and her laugh is so innocent. I can't believe how caring a 2 year old can be. She sings lullabies to her babies and if she see me crying (which I do a lot lately!) she comes and rubs my back and says "poor mommy, 'ok?" I LOVE HER! She's just so silly and sweet. I can't wait till all you first time mommies get to experience this. There is nothing better! 14 more weeks, 14 more weeks!!

11/2/07 - Well apparently I'm a little slow because I'm just realizing that all of my updates are gone! I have appointments every 2 weeks so I'm not even gonna try to catch up! Basically everything is going well, in fact at my last check up my cervix was measuring longer! I'm not sure how thats possible but its not shorter so I'm happy! On a crappy note, I got fired from the job I just started last week. They had NO reason to fire me so I think it was just because I'm pregnant. I have no idea what we are going to do as we NEED two incomes, but I'm trying to make the best of the situation! At my 24 week appointment little Ethan was measuring 1 pound 9 ounces and doing great! I can't wait till he's here =)

8/23/07 - We found out last week that we are having a boy!! We are naming him Ethan and I just can't believe I still have 26 weeks before I get to meet him! I look SO forward to ultrasound appointments! =) Next one on 9/5!

Welcome to my page! This is my fourth pregnancy...I had 2 miscarriages and then my daughter, now almost 2, was born at 28 weeks after several complications. I am very nervous about this pregnancy but hoping for a healthy, full term baby. I work nights right now in an Assisted Living Facility and stay home during the day with my daughter. My husband owns his own business as an insurance agent and all together we are a very busy little family! I'm a little nervous about adding another baby, as I just can't imagine enough time in the day for everything! This was a planned pregnancy though, and we're hoping for the best! I look forward to having some February babies with all of you ladies!
