2-20-00 Baby
Dreams and Birthday wishes well, yesterday was my
birthday, I'm 27, and i had one wish, that this baby will be born
in August, safe and sound. *sigh* iv'e had brown spotting since
Tuesday that does not want to go away. I thought it was because
we had "fun" on Sunday night, and that was the first
time in 4 weeks due to our ER scare, but it
hasn't stopped. I did call the dr. and he thought it was the same
thing, so to just take it easy and 'none of that' for at least a
week. So here I am, Sunday and it's just as much as it was
Tuesday. I've just got off the phone with the dr. again and he
wants me to come in tomorrow to be checked to make sure things
are ok. he said it's probably nothing, but just to be sure. *big
sigh* i just wish it'd stop and that i wouldn't have to worry
about the baby like this.
This little one is just
not going to let me go about my normal duties! I just want them
safe and growing well. "Please help us Lord." I need to
keep my faith.
On the good side, I had
another baby dream last night. We were in the car and had our
little girl putting her in the new carseat i have in the closet
for her. :) She had a lot of dark hair that looked a bit wavy.
Her little face was red, like she was a newborn and she was just
a normal size, probably somewhere between 7 - 8 pounds. :) So
that makes 2 girl dreams. :) Let's hope that they come true.

My dr. appt went well. There was a nerve wracking few seconds
when he couldn't find the heartbeat. then he found mine, which i
knew it wasn't the baby's, then he searched some more and finally
found it tucked up in the upper right corner. *whew* Then he did
a cervical check and seen that some of my cervical cells were
inverted (?) and that could be causing them to be sensitive. he
couldn't see anywhere else that the old blood could be coming
from, so it was probably from the placenta still being healing.
He said the good news was that it's obviously bleeding very
slowly since the blood was brown by the time i seen it. So i'm on
orders of no sex, no housework (like vaccumming, scrubbing, etc),
no heavy lifting of any kind, things like that til i have at
least 2 days of no bleeding.
I still go back on march 7th
for my regular appt. I'll get my blood work done then, and should
get an appt for an ultrasound.
Feb.29, 00 well, today is a leap year
day. Imagine that. I’m now 27 with 2 kids and one on the way.
I think this is about how I wanted my life to be at this point. J
I had my first glass of sweet tea made here at home in like 4
months last night. It wasn’t too bad. The juice and water
and milk still taste much better.
Yesterday was a very nice day here. It got up to like 70 degrees
or close to it. The kids played outside a lot and I got 3 loads
of clothes on the line to dry. I love it when it’s nice so I
can save money on the electric bill. J I fixed the kids a picnic
for lunch and we ate outside on the porch. They really liked that.
I did too. Just might do it again today. It’s supposed to be
even warmer today. Love it!
My next appt is a week from today. I’ve got to mention to
the Dr. about this hip pain I’ve been having. I know it’s
just from my joints loosening up, but wow, it sure has started
early and this hurts as bad as a sciatic nerve! It’s not all
the time, but the more I’m up and about, the worse it gets.
I’ll be going along fine and all of a sudden it’s like
I’m limping like a lame dog! L It was so sore yesterday it
felt like my whole left buttock was bruised, which it isn’t’,
just the pain is so bad.
I’m getting eager for my ultrasound. J Little bit gave me a
swift kick this morning. J I like that! I know I’ll want
them to calm down when they get bigger, but for now, I love every
nudge and budge that I get!

Today is my 7 year anniversary. J wow! I can’t believe its’
been that long already. I had just turned 20 when me and Robert got married, and he was 25. it’s
amazing how fast time can go by. It just seems like last year we
were coming home from the hospital with canaan
and were watching him grow, now we’re waiting on our 3rd
baby to get here.
They’ve
been good years, I must say that. Robert and I are like best
friends and better. We like hanging around with each other and
spending time with each other. We know how to read each other,
and we just get along really well. We are like opposites though.
He is very outgoing, can talk to anybody, anytime. Me, it takes
awhile to get comfortable around new people. He’s usually
loud, while I’m usually quiet. J I guess you can say that we
balance each other out, because we help each other with the
things we’re not to good at. He’s helped me be more
personable, while I’ve helped him to be more…gentle. J
Here’s
to 7 times 7 more years and more than that. I’m glad God
chose my husband for me, I sure couldn’t’ have done a
better job. J
3-6-00 I
go to the dr. tomorrow for my regular checkup. today i had to
call because Canaan has parvo virus (5ths disease) for the
children it's not really anything to worry about. it's basically
a virus infection that causes them to get a red rash. once they
have it, they're immune to it for life. the thing is i dont know
if i've had it. i hope i have. i was in day care before starting
1st grade and all those years at public school, surely i've had
it. some of what i read on it is very disturbing, from fetal
mortality or serious defects,and others are like, nothing to
worry about cause 80% of women are immune to it.
i talked to my dr. and he
said not to worry aobut it.......so. i dont know whether i'm
aggrevated or relived. i go tomorrow anyway, so i'll talk more
about it then. they said they didnt' do any tests for it either.
i'll update tomorrow and
looks like start a new page. stay tuned to find out how much i've
gained. :) and to see when i get my ultrasound. :)
