Prenatal Info

    In Germany Mother's to be are given a booklet
    called the Mutterpass.
    This booklet is very handy as it detailes
    all the vitals from each appointment.  Here
    are my prenatal vitals and growth rate.
    Remember that all babies grow at diffrent
    rates and all mothers have diffrent things
    happen with their health.

    On my Mommy's first visit she was not given a Mutterpass
    because I was not visable and the ultra sound showed only an empty
    gestational sac.  My Mommy has level 4 endometriosis and had
    already had one miscarrage and was not belived to be able to have
    any babies.  I was 6 weeks old at this visit.

    My Vitals:
    Toady is my Mommy's 32nd birthday and boy did I have a surprise
    for her.  Doctor Westerberg and my Mommy thought that Mommy
    was going to be going to the hospital for a D&C but I decided
    to show up...  My Mommy's best Birthday Present was
    getting her Mutterpass and getting to see me.  Even though I
    was just a little dot of white in the gestational sac.
    I am 8 weeks old but by the ultrasound I am only as big as
    a 6week and 4 day old. Doctor Westerberg saw my
    heartbeat on the ultrasound.

    lower left side.  I wanted to sleep during the fetal monitoring
    and the nurse had to jiggle mommy's tummy to wake me up.

    my age.  My risk factor is down now too!!! Yeah Me!
    I have started to turn around the right way.
    My heartbeat was found on Mommy's lower right side,
    And I acted up during the whole monitoring.
    I kicked and hit and squiremed around so
    it was hard to hear my heartbeat and Mommy kept
    having to applogize to the nurses.
    During my Ultrasound I would push back at the ultrasound
    wand with my hands and feet.  I was a real stinker today hee hee.

    wand and one of my foot kicking.

    July 2, 1999

    This was not a regular appointment.  My
    friend Donovan Dalton was born at 3:14 am.
    Mommy and I were there since Donovan's daddy is
    in Sarijavo.  I was causing Mommy some pain and the
    stress from Donovan being born made me really
    active so the doctor checked Mommy and me out too.
    The doctor wants Mommy to have some more sugar tests as they
    think I might be too big now..
    Thats a big change from the way I was to begin with.
    The doctor didn't put all my measurements but
    did put my weight which is 3400grams or 7lbs 8 oz.
    I'm even bigger than Donovan was when he was born
    today.  Mommy really looks pregnate now.  Before lots of people
    just thought Mommy had gained weight but now they can tell
    I'm in there.
    My new favorite thing to do is stomp my feet and wiggle.

    July 9, 1999

    I am still breech and there is plenty of fluid for
    me to be turned during the external version on
    Monday BUT my size is a cause
    for concern so Mommy has to be ready
    for me to be born.
