30. May Hi , there I am again after a short time:)
And as you can see i did grow quite a bit :))
Today mom had to go to have a Sonogram done, that was very exciting. I'm 20 weeks old now, that means half of my time in here is over. I was
still sleeping when they wanted to take the picture today. They had to wake me up first, because I was rolled up like a little ball.
But i ddin't want to wake up, it was still quite early in the morning. But they didn't give up, they kept poking on her belly. Oh well i thought,
they won't quit until i move. So I did just that. Mom and dad were so happy, because they saw me moving for the first time. .
And then it started again, mom cried. She was so happy. Well, and when they finished messureing everything of
course they wanted to know if I'm a girl or a boy. But I was just soooo comfortable and didn't want to show more than neccessary.
But they wanted me to turn, so they kept poking but no way, I rather play with my feet.
Of course they thought that was cute too *g*. But I was hardheaded, guess who i got that from, and didn't turn because it's my place where i can do
what i want. But then i felt sorry for them and i thought, what the heck and showed them something so they where quiet.
Yes, I'm a girl which mom wished for. And I'm doing very good :))) August 2. (30 weeks) Hello :) It's been a while *blush*. August 25. (33 weeks) Here the newest. Mom got Diabetes because of me, she says, it's not my fault, but I still feel bad.
And it's suposed to go away once I'm out of here. Right now I'm doing great... Mom says, that's the most important thing.
She has to live with a diet right now and has to poke herself in her finger 4 times every day to check her sugar levels.
Well, she's sweet and if there is something as sweet as me on top of it, it can happen that there's too much sweets, at least that's what Daddy says.
But I don't think I will be in here for too much longer, it's getting really tight and I don't really like to drink this stuff that I swim in.
It's pretty bad if you have to drink the same that you 'put in there'. Oh well, soon enough I will get milk. Ok, now I will try again to stretch a bit, but it's not that easy. August 26. Today I got great news.... I finally have a room out there, I already started to get worried if I had to sleep in the laundry basket.
Today Moms friends threw a babyshower for us, it was a surprise, mom tried to find out for weeks when it was suposed to be, but nobody told her.
I even had to witness her going through her girl friends purse to see if she had the date somewhere in there. But no luck, I think,she's just a little bit too nosy... is that healthy?
Well and then I got great gifts today, even a huge bed.
Ok, I go and grow some more now. Oh, mom.... please don't turn the music on that loud in the car, it's enough not to have any room in here, then you still have to deal with the headache on top of it. 22.September (friday)
Hello, today something great happened.... and Mom didn't notice it at
first.... 4 a.m, Mom hat do go potty, all the time, she thought it might be
my waterbed but she didn't want to wake anybody up. I think, she didn't want
to believe it after all since I still had time left. So she went back to
bed, but had to run every couple of minutes back to the potty.
She thought , well at noon I have an appointment because of my front door,
you never know how far i opened it already. She told them about all that and
they discovered that it WAS my water bed.
Up until then everything was ok, one month early was no big deal, the
problem was my head being in the wrong position, up instead of down. I just
didn't want to look down and get dizzy.
In the hospital they tried to turn me, but because I was sitting in the dry
now there was no more time for that, so they had to open a new door on Moms
belly.
Of course she got scared because it all had to happen really fast because it
wasn't comfortable in here any more.
Well, the appointment at the doctors was at 11 am., at noon we were already
in the hospital.
The funny thing was, that the doctor told us to go to the hospital right
away , but my nervous dad thought that we had to go back home first to pick
up our bag and the most important thing, the videocamera . You never know...
In the meantime everybody was waiting for us, but we took our sweet time,
since Mom didn't feel anything , I was nice and didn't hurt her.
At the hospital they were looking for us everywhere and called us and a lot
of other things, they thought that something happened since my parents were
really nervous.
At 12:30 we finally got to the hospital, Mom was getting ready because of
the Epidural and so on, it's a kind of anesthesia. Daddy could finally make
his long wished 'movie'.
At exactly 13:27 I was finally on Moms belly.
It was soooo cold, that was the first i noticed, that's why I took a deep
breath and?????
I heard someone scream, it was me, I scared myself, after all it was the
first time I could hear myself.
Well, I screamed some more and more until I was cleaned and wrapped in a
blanket, finally a little warmer.
Then I finally got to see Mom from the outside, I can't explain what kind of
a feeling it was for both of us, only the ones that have been through it can
understand it. Mom asked right away if i was allright, after all I wasn't
suposed to be there yet, but I was doing very good, I just was very hungry.
Then we had to separate for a while because they had to examin me and Mom
had to rest too.
Dad was with me the whole time, he cried a bit because he was so happy, but
the entire time he had this camera with him, it's kinda strange being
watched the whole time :)
After 2 hours I was back in Moms arms, and I could stay there as long as I
wanted to. First they both looked at me and I wanted back, then Mom looked
for my little feed , I guess she wanted to make sure that everything is
where it belongs. Now I was really hungry , but I waited til Mom was ready,
after all she had to relax too. Then I was being fed and Daddy got to change
me for the first time, because Mom couldn't get up yet.
I was surprised that he did it right the first time, and I'm proud of him.
Well, I stayed really calm to make it as easy as possible for him.
That's how 3 days in the hospital went by.....
I thought I tell you again what I'm doing in here.
First , I'm doing very good, I'm already 40 cm tall and 3 Pounds, and it's slowly but certainly getting tight! Mom sometimes gets does cramps in her belly and that's absolutely not my fault.
