Doctor Update

Sorry, it has taken me awhile to update. I went to the doctor last Wednesday and got so see her on a sonogram, she is weighing in at 3lbs. I also had to do my diabetes test and get my negative RH shot. This is because I have A- blood and Dusty has O+ so mostly likely our kids will have positive which means my body will attack the baby if our blood mixes so just as a precaution I have to get these shots. Everything went fine at the doctor they didn't schedule a date for my c-section because they can't do it without my doctor there. Then on Thursday the doctor's office called and said my sugar levels were too high so I would have to go do a 3 hr diabetes test. Let me tell you it wasn't any fun, I had to sit there for 3 hrs and have my blood drawn 4 times, but the good news is that all came back normal.

I go back to the doctor on December 27th. Hopefully we will get a date for her arrival then.

Pictures

Here is some pictures from the last couple of weeks. Brier has become Dusty's little shadow, which is nice, its given momma a little break here and there. I think it is because Dusty is not as strict as I am but its probably because Brier loves him.

Thanksgiving night, it was Brier first time to wear this jacket, he looks so cute in it.

Back Pain, ha ha

I love my pregnancy ticker at the top of this page, it pretty much sums up how I feel right now. Incase it has changed this is what it said
"The doctor says good posture will help Mommy's back pain. She says that's a load of crap. Having a baby is the only cure!"

I was suppose to see my regular doctor tomorrow but they called and changed it to Wednesday and I'm not going to even get to see my doctor I'm going to be seeing the PA from my high risk doctor, which is OK, I like her. I was just all set to ask Dr. Killeen to schedule a date for my c-section 1. so I will just have a date and 2. really Dusty needs to get it on the calendar at his work so he can make sure and get a couple of days off when this little girl comes. I think I will ask anyway, one of my friend's due date is February 23rd and they scheduled her c-section for the 13th, so I know they are already scheduling for this time frame.

I will try and get some new pictures up soon.

Happy Thanksgiving and Random Pictures

Here is a few random pictures from the last couple of weeks.

Sorry I have several more pictures but I'm getting an error message so I'll have to try again later.

Our Baby Girl

I went back to the high risk doctor today and everything looked great with our baby girl. She's right on schedule. She is weighing in at 2lbs 4ozs and all her measurements look good. She is breech at this point, she has her head up under my right ribs, but really all that means is a c-section which I will be having anyway. So no big deal other than she seems to be tap dancing on my bladder which explains why I seem to have to go to the bathroom with her a lot. We got to have a 4D sonogram, which was very cool. Sonograms have already come along ways since I had Brier. We still don't have a name but we are narrowing them down, but here is the fun stuff, pictures of her. She looks exactly like Brier did in his 3D sonograms, I think her nose might be a little different, but pretty much at this point they could be twins.

Brier also went to the doctor today for his 18mo checkup and he looks great too. He's still in the 75% on height and 25% on weight. He got a flu shot so he's been a little cranky but not bad.

100 Days to go

Does anyone want to countdown with me. Some days I'm really ready to get this baby here and others I realize that honestly they're easier to take care of when you just get to carry them around in your belly, but if it came down to it I can't wait to see her sweet little baby face.
