hmm.

So we still haven't had this little guy yet! I feel like I am going to die. I went to the Doctor this morning and was there forever! First I had to wait for the doctor for an hour in the waiting room, and then she finally came in and checked me and my cervix has done NOTHING! My blood pressure was a little high, so they checked me at the end of the appt too, and it was fine. Crap. so I wasn't going to get induced. I just want this to be over so badly that I feel like its never going to happen. Since my blood pressure was still up today, she did an ultrasound to make sure he still had enough fluid, and then I had to do the NTS test to make sure that he is still moving and his heart rate was fine. So I got there at 9:30 this morning and left at 12:00pm. It was a long vist and still no baby.

So close, but it seems so far away..

So we are getting down to the wire here, and this little guy should be making his appearance anytime now. We have just over a week and not to much is happening. I am so ready for him to come, but apparently he doesn't feel the same way. I can't sleep, I get sick when I eat, and I'm just exhausted! Not like I will get any more sleep when he comes, but I would like to hope its better.
We did go to the Doctor this morning and found out that I am not dilating and have thinned a little bit, so that was a bummer. I did have really high blood pressure though, and she was really concerned about that. I have to go back on Thursday and if it is still high then she said she will induce me over the weekend. So we could be having a baby by the end of the week. Which would be so nice. We will keep everyone updated, and post pictures as soon as he gets here.
Wish us luck!

here they are!

Baby Shower!

So I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that came and helped with the baby showers! They turned out so great and I had a fantastic time at both. We had one at my parents house on Sat thye 12th, and it was so good to see all my friends and family from there, and then we had one here in St. George on wednesday night and we had a great time. I can't thank everyone enough for all the stuff that they gave me! It will come in very useful I'm sure.
and we are having a baby shower/party down in Heber, Az over the thanksgiving weekend. So we are excited about that too!

Getting Closer..

So I can't believe how fast everything is going these days! I feel like I just don't have enough time! Holidays are coming and I've only got a month before I stranded to St. George. Apparently I can't travel after 34 weeks ( doctors orders) because altitude change can induce labor. I guess it varies from doctor to doctor but she told me after the first of dec. I can't go anywhere; so St. George I am going to stay. So this will be me and Jake's first Christmas alone. :(
I did go to my 29 week appt last Friday. She said he measures perfectly and everything looks and sounds good. I start seeing her every 2 weeks now and then at the end of dec I will see her every week. I had to take that glucose screening test on friday too, I didn't know I was going to so that morning I had donuts and hot choclate at 8 and then at 9:15 I had to start drinking that sugar water stuff they give you. I thought I was going to pass out. I was going into a sugar coma. So I waited out the hour, and they tested my blood and I was fine. Thank goodness, I've heard if you have to take the 2nd test it really sucks, so I was happy about that.
My stomach is huge now. I need to post some pics cause I'm pretty sure he is going to be a gaint child. I hope not I hoping for 7 lbs, but I can dream right.

I hope he doesn't look like this!

What do you think about my little new baby Reed?

25 Weeks down!

So I went to the doctor for my 25 week appt on friday! We only have 15 weeks left. Its going by so fast! She just measured everything and listen to his heart beat. She said he is doing really good and everything looks great! I feel him move a lot now. He kicks really hard. Its fun! Sometimes he moves around though and it feels really gross, but cool at the same time. My stomach is getting huge now and my belly button is sticking all the way out now. I'm starting to not fit in my clothes. Well I haven't fit in my pants for a while but I could still get the shirts to stretch but they are starting to get to short.
Oh well what do you do. Guess I will just have to go shopping. :)
