The stitches....

Well the stitches came out yesterday and that was an experience. The doctor said it was no big deal etc. Well it was. I almost passed out and got very dizzy and light headed, and thought I was going to die. I have broken bones and injured myself so many times in life and nothing was like that. Labor has to be better. Anyway I dilated 1 cm after they were removed. I've had severe cramping all night and this morning, which I had when they put the stitches in, so I believe that comes with it. I go back next Monday, if Kylee is not here yet, which I am pretty sure she won't be we still have a long way to go to get to 10 cm. Now all we can do is wait!! Fun, Fun, Fun.

March 23, 2009 Appointment

Well Ms. Kylee is 6 lbs 14 oz and is in position for arrival. She is so cute! She's going to be chubby!!! Anyway I will have my stitches out next monday and if she doesn't decide to come on her own by April 13th, I will be induced that day! I can't wait, it's so exciting and scary at the same time. I was worried about having a c-section, now that's not the case, now I'm worried about being responsible for another life besides my own. I can't wait until this little girl is in my arms and I am somebody's mommie. I think then I will have a greater appreciate for the love my mother has for me and Justin. She would give her life for us and I would do the same for Kylee. :) I will post an update next week when the stitches come out!!! I can't wait.

P.S. The doctor said if I make it three more weeks, she will be well over 8lbs.... Bless me!! :)

March 9, 2009 Appointment

Well so far, so good! The doctor said everything looks good, even though I am having contractions I have not dilated, which is good. She needs to stay put a little longer. So next appointment is 3/23 and I will have a sonogram and see how big she is and if she's in the correct position. Then the big day March 30Th, the stitches come out, so I will make sure everything is ready that day. Even though she might decided to stay put for 3 weeks after that, which she and I will have a long talk about that, when she's old enough. LOL! Anyway Matthews goes out of town 3/23-3/27 and he asked the doctor if he thought that was wise. And Doc said well you never know what can happen, but if I did have the baby that week, he would act like a proud daddy for Matthew!! TOO FUNNY!

It's Finally March!

I can't believe it's already March!! I am excited!! The end is near! It's only Monday and I am ready for the weekend, so I can rest! My new symptom this week is excess swelling. I am glad I go to the doctor Monday so he can see this, I had swelling for about the last 8 weeks, but for some reason yesterday and today have been much worse than normal. I got on the scales today and have gained 6 pounds in a week!!! That is not right, I believe it's the fluid. And yes the pregnancy hormones are in full swing this week. Saturday I wasn't feeling well all day, so that might have something to do with it, but I went to get in the shower and the rug in the bathroom was gone, (matthew cleaned the entire house, so I didn't have too) so he put the bath rug in the laundry room so it could be washed. I started crying like someone I loved just died, and I couldn't stop crying, the whole time I was in the shower I was crying about a dang bath rug. About ten minutes after I got out I was fine. Crazy!! I would say I am a semi-emotional person, I cry about things but not just over anything, it takes alot. So when Matthew got home I told him what happened, and he thought it was crazy too, not like me at all. He said let's leave the rug in the bathroom from now on!! LOL! It's got to be the preggo hormones. Weird.

Anyway we almost are finished with baby girl's room. I can't wait until it's all done and my bag is packed for the hospital and then I can surely relax and await her arrival. It's hard to image in a few weeks, I will be a mom. I hope I am a good mom, I have my mind set on the parent I want to be, but you know it never works out like that. I just hope we can raise a child that turns out to be a productive member of society. I plan to raise her the way I was raised. And so far I turned out ok!! :) I know I want make all the right decision's but I hope I at least make mostly right decisions. It's exciting and scary at the same time. It's crazy to think that soon I will have a child that everything that she becomes and does in life will mostly be because of how her parents raised her. That's alot on your plate as a parent. I've put all my fears about parenting in god's hands and I know he will lead me in the right direction.
