Baby has arrived!


2008-07-03  (23 weeks)
23 WEEKS & 4 DAYS July 3rd 2008

Not much has really changed since my last entry...The baby continues to kick very low and seems to be much more laid back than his/her sister was!!  I'll just sit here and wait for the day that my belly starts jumping around:) I'm hoping that will be soon. I have officially broke down and bought a pair of maternity capris and 2 dress maternity shirts!!! I can't believe how much more comfortable they are than "normal people" clothes!!! WOW! Amanda and I went in for pedicures last Friday and then hit up motherhood maternity:) It was a super fun day. We always have fun when we shop together though...I love to make her buy clothes she wouldn't normally buy:)  I'm going to try and not get any more clothes the rest of the summer:) Try is the key word. It's just so hard because everything is so cute!

Lately I've really been wondering what we'll be having....I have no feelings as to if this is a boy or a girl in my tummy. Josh doesn't even guess. He says he doesn't care what we have:)  I use to be leaning more towards boy now I'm not too sure...I went back and read my baby journal with my daughter and there are alot of similairities with the two pregnancies...Guess I'll just have to continue to be patient! Just about 16 more weeks left to go!  We still have no names picked out...Although we have a list going...well I have a list going. Josh and I will sit down someday soon and narrow the names down..I'm still open to suggestions so anyone with any ideas please let me know!!!

I have my next appointment On July 8th-I'm hoping the weight gain isn't out of control!! Can't say I've been watching what I've been eating either though! I just watch everything go right into my mouth!!!!

22 weeks 1 day June 23 2008

I've been so busy the past couple of weeks that I forget how far along I am! 22 WEEKS! What a great feeling to be able to have made it this far already!  Every day my belly seems to get bigger and bigger. It's crazy! By the time October rolls around I am going to be as huge as a house!!! Over the weekend I went shopping and bought some capris and shorts and a shirt. Nothing is maternity yet:) I'm lucky this time because all of the clothing styles now seem to be nice and flowy! Great for me! For some reason I just would rather not shop at a Maternity type of store.  I've been dealing with some pretty bad sciatic pain the past few days...I think everything is "widening" for the big day. Who knows. But it is painful to get up and down. I'm pretty sure I over-did it with all of the weeding and pruning I did.  I'm trying to stay as active as possible which isn't hard when you have a two year old:) It'll be interesting to see how much weight I gain this time around.

Baby is still moving alot really low however I have felt him/her kick higher up a couple times over the weekend. I love that! :) I just have way too much room for this little one to swim around in!

21 weeks and 3 days June 18 2008

GREEN LIGHT!!

I had my OB Appt. yesterday and everything is still looking great!! Except for my weight:) Just kidding. I have gained 10 pounds which brings me up to 150! They say I'm right on schedule as far as weight gain but the 150 number was hard to digest!  The baby's heart rate was 150 as well!! I am measuring right on too! Dr. Roberts re-read my radiology report and showed me where it said "the previous sub-chorionic bleed is no longer present and has resolved itself!!" That was great to read/hear! She took me off of ALL restrctions-She actually told me "Tarah you are now off of probation" :) That was also some FABULOUS news!  She is still going to be seeing me every three weeks which is so nice. I really look foward to being able to hear my little angel's heart beating! Dr. Roberts really thinks I am having a boy this time too. I guess only time will tell! So all in all yesterdays visit was a very good one!!  19 weeks to go!

20 week-Ultrasound June 10 2008
Awwww:) Our little angel is SO cute!! The ultrasound went well. We saw the baby wiggling around:) He or she had their hands up by it's ears alot and we even got a pretty good picture of the little ear! So neat! I wasn't able to see the bottom half of the baby very much since we didnt' want to know what we are having. My mom,Josh and Brielle came with. It was a fun experience for Brielle I think. She kept pointing at the monitor saying "Mama Baby!"- The heartrate was 147 which is making me believe even more that I am cookin' up a little boy this time around! We will be elated with whatever we get though. As far as the u/s tech could see everything is looking good. I'm happy about that. The baby is head down and was very curled up inside of me. No wonder why I have been feeling all the jabs down low! The head is very low! The baby is measuring in at a whopping 12 ounces and I am right on schedule as far as measurments to due date!!! Some other great news is that the clot is GONE!!!!!!! I am sooooooo relieved! Now I'm just waiting for the green light from Dr. Roberts to say I can ride a bike and be more active and not so cautious about everything!  My next OB appointment is next Tuesday. This pregnancy is going by way too fast!
