Bad surprises during pregnancy

So as everyone knows your organs get shoved upwards to make room for the baby and your growing uterus. Well in my case in doing so it has aggravated mt gallbladder to the point of hurting. But why would it start hurting. Hippy Hooray I have gallstones. Even though I have never had a attack before they start now because of lack of room in my belly. I went to the ER Monday morning at about 12 AM. I thought I was going into Preterm labor. OH MY GOD the pain was bad. All around my stomach in my back, in my ribs, it made me short of breath. So it admitted me right away. Ran every test imaginable. And came up with nothing. They had no clue what could be causing the pain. A pulmonologist, lung specialist, came said well made you have a clot in your lungs. Ran a test, came back negative. They released me at about 4 pm Monday evening. So the next day I go and see my Doctor, he says made its your gallbladder. So I had that tested a couple of days later.
Thankfully they found gallstones.
Unthankfully they found gallstones.
Because now that means I more than likely will have to have surgery after Alex gets here. Unless something bad happens between now and then. Which since having a cervix over 25 puts you in the low risk category for pre-term labor, and mines a 46, Im praying that it stays that way until March 4th or so.

I hope Alex takes after daddy, and baby shower update

If he does then he will be one happy and very funny baby!

My Baby Daddy quote of the day is:

"Just check the DNA sample I left on there!"

HAHA

Now back story on why he said this

I have an Avon party the I RSVP to about a month ago. Its from 7:00-9:00pm tonight. We are going out of town tomorrow night and we need to borrow his dads SUV because my sister Nay and Mama D are coming with us. I know doesnt sound very romantic, "hey baby you like that?" "Shh my sister will hear you!" HAHA But sadly no thats not why we are going out of town. We are going to Cincinnati, OH to Kings Island there for fright fest, Halloween Haunt, what the hell ever it is called. My other sister Em and Captain America plus Hay-Bug and Capt Jr. are coming too! Yeah I know a nice family outing. But Em doesnt ride rides and since Im handicapped from riding anything I get to spend some good quality time with my oldest sister and Mama D! Which makes me very very happy.

Anyways back to the main story(thank you ADD for getting me off track) Im supposed to go and see the Future-Father-In-Law and the Future-Mother-In-Law plus sisters in laws. FMIL wants to see my belly since it will be her and FFIL first grandbaby, let alone grandson! I tell WH I already have plans, to which this conversation comes

WH: Your going with me to pick up the SUV
Me: I have plans baby
WH: Dont make me pull rank, Im the baby daddy and I need you.
Me: *fit of giggles* your going to pull rank *another fit of giggles* and why do I have to go, its just picking up the SUV.
WH: Yeah but they want to see you, and yea Ill pull rank Im more important. Plus you can explain the ultrasound picks better than I can. Besides the "see the arrow, the arrow is pointing at his pecker"
Me: Well what time does dad get off work. *holding back laughter*
WH: between 7 and 8
Me: The party starts at 7. But I guess when we leave there you can take me
WH: that means I need to put the gas in it, and that takes gas
Me: She lives 5 seconds from our house.
WH: Still takes like a quarter in gas
Me: Ill give you the dang quarter
WH: from where, the change thing... most of those are mine
Me: I put money in there too ya know
WH: Yeah but most of them are mine, so you will probably pull one of my quarters out
Me: How would you know, do you have them labeled?
WH: Yep, Just check the DNA sample Ive left on there. *starts to laugh*
Me: I love you!


Now on for baby shower news, I have all the big stuff taken care of!!
WOOHOO
The joys of having 3 older sisters who are all excited that Im having a baby, and are so willing to help me and WH out. The high chair, the bassinet, the baby seat, the stroller, the crib, the swing, etc. its all taken care of. Im so excited!

Oh and his name is Christopher Alexander Edward

ITS A BOY

ITS A BOY

ITS A BOY!!!

I almost cried and I did let a out a nice woohoo when the lady showed me his lovely penis! But me being me had to see it again when the doc came in. And my stubborn baby decided that I had already seen it enough and wasnt going to cooperate. He already has his mama and daddys attitude toward things.

So here are some pics of the baby, sorry they are crappy, I dont have a scanner.

So call me a copycat

I have seen these and seen these, and never really wanted to keep full 100% track of all of these things, until now. Now when Im half way there and relize in just a few short months the baby will be here. So here it goes

How far along? 19 weeks and 6 days
Total weight gain/loss: believe it or not, just 6 lbs
Maternity clothes? yes
Sleep: almost non existant... cant get comfortable
Best moment this week: finding out Im haveing a lovely baby boy!!
Movement: yep :)
Gender: boy!
Labor Signs: No!
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: feeling well. and not wanting to eat everything in sight
What I am looking forward to: buying blue!!
Weekly Wisdom: Wanting to punch the Ultrasound tech in the face because shes being super rude is normal Im sure. And it does pass as soon as the doctor comes in!
Milestones: Finding out its a beautiful bounceing boy!

YaY for being one of the special cases!

Im 16 weeks and 1 day today. Since I was about 10 weeks maybe 9 weeks, I have been having ALOT of lower back pain, and even some sciatic nerve pain. I know, I know.. Im to early for this.. so says my ENTIRE FAMILY! I talk to the OB doc and he tells me that if it keeps up Im going to have to go to physical therapy. Next visit comes up, and I tell them the pain is still her and getting a little worse. So Now I got to Physical therapy 3 days a week!!

My first visit the doc sits a heating pad on my back for about 30 mins. Then I got to lay on my side and get a wonderful back rub plus a few mins to stretch my hips out just alittle.

My second visit. Different doc but this one was way nicer. Same thing as before, kinda. I got the heating pad, and the back rub. But as he was stretching me out he felt a knot in the lower back, two of them actually, and proceeds to tell me that they are indeed knotted muscles and he will try to help work them out while I was there, but cant do it all at once cause Id be in so serious pain. Oh and that Im falling apart with all my joints cracking and popping as he moved me around.

My third day was much like the day before. Heating pad, rub down, laughing at how many times my joints crack, etc. My joints are already really limber, actually my physical therapist said today "yeah I can manipulate all of these joints and I shouldn't be able to do that yet. Its to early in your pregnancy!"

Yay me. NOT!

Then to top it off as he was stretching me out my hip did what I used to think was normal, and pop seemingly out of place and the doc felt it. And confirmed that it is indeed trying to pop out! He told me I was going to be a complicated case, but at least Im not annoying like some are. LMAO! Im glad Im not annoying to you to doc!

Oh and I think I felt the baby move for the first time today. Like actual movement. It felt like a flutter in my lower abdomen. But then again it could have been gas?! I really dont know yet.

I can tell September is coming!

My allergies are kicking my ass! And if they were kicking it any harder Id have to file assault charges against them! Oh My God! First I wake up with a little bit of a sore throat. No biggie! Then here comes the sinus drainage, yet again no biggie. But with in the last hour I have had a sinus headache with sinus pressure to boot that makes me feel like Ive shoved something up my nose! So right now I'm trying to find out what I can and cant not take for my allergies. I had a huge print out of the most common symptoms and the things you can take, but I have sadly filed it away with other baby stuff(my moms obsessed with scrapbooks)!

Some Randomness as usual!

Me and KAM went to Wal.mart with her mama and little sister yesterday. While her mom and little sister were shopping we went to look at some baby stuff and some things for her wedding. I found the cutest little jumper for a boy, it says "daddy's little handyman" across the front, and it looks like it has a little tool belt across the belly! Too Cute! Oh and for a girl I found the cutest little shoes for her and some Little Mermaid PJs! Too cute!!

I cant wait for October to get here, I really want to know what it is already!

Penis or Va-Jay-Jay

Personally I'm so hoping for a boy! There are a ton of girls in my family(4 girls with 2 boys, plus 3 nieces, plus 8 aunts and only 4 uncles) and Id love to have a bouncing baby boy. But what wins out is a healthy baby! If I have a girl that's less clothes Ill have to buy because of my big sisters baby girl. And I don't think Id worry so much about her getting someone pregnant as opposed to her getting knocked up. So there are perks.

In other news. I still have abnormal cells on my cervix, theres three main regions that need to be tested but have to wait until the baby comes. And after that I can go back to the same doctor to see if anything is cancerous. As long as they don't but that crap on my cervix again I think Ill be OK. Cause let me tell you that was NOT a very pleasant doctor visit. For one I got to see what the inside of my own Vagina looks like. Not really something I ever wanted to see. Then afterwards was the pain. O-M-G! I don't think I have ever, ever experienced pain like that. Not even when I hyper-extended my fingers and caused a hairlined crack in my knuckle. Not even when I tore some ligaments in my right shoulder(still have yet to get that fixed). And not even when I wrecked my four wheeler flipping it on top of me! These cramps were a nightmare. No a nightmares nightmare!! I was doubled over in pain in the middle of the grocery store! So not fun!

Oh and my lower back/ hip joint pain is only going to get worse. I talked to my doctor about it and the doctor says that it shouldn't really be happening this early in my pregnancy, but since it is there are some stretches I can try to do to ease the pain, and more than likely the pain will get worse the closer I get to delivery! Just my luck.

Tired and pool time!

OK so good news for today... other than my not eating as quickly as my little bundle feels I should and getting sick because of it I have felt really good so far today!

YAY ME!!!

So today Keylin was at my dads. I haven't introduced him yet. So I will. Hes amazing. He will be 10 months old on the 24Th of this month. I was there when he was born and almost cut the umbilical cord(his dad was never there, and his mom lived with my dad cause shes a ho who had no where to go when she was knocked up and we made nice with each other). I love that kid. If push came to shove I would kidnap him in a heartbeat gladly take him off his ungrateful druggie mothers hands! I know that sounds harsh and all of you moms out there are probably thinking daggers at me for calling this lady a bad mother. Let me explain. She smokes pot and drives with her baby, she also snorts pills up her nose and drives with her baby. She took her baby off formula because it costs to much, now only gets whole milk or Mt. Dew(unless hes with me!) And YES YES YES I have called social services on her, and NOTHING was done. They came to her house took a peek at the kid said everything looked fine and left did a investigation on "her" and nothing showed up! Its so frustrating knowing that she doesn't take care of him like she should. Needless to say I gladly take him whenever she needs some time to do whatever.

OK on with the pool story. And I have pictures.

I'm pregnant. I get hot. I get hot really easily. It was over 90 degrees today with over 50% humidity. Its currently 86.7 degrees and 46% humidity. Needless to say it was a hot one for my town today!! So I talked my dad to buying a kiddie pool for Me Keylin so he could keep cool while we watched him today! He absolutely loved it!! We played for over an hour in our little pool. I had a blast and so did it.

It was an amazing day!

Ahh Mondays

I hate Mondays..

I'm sure everyone does!

But anyways... I'm almost over my morning sickness. I say almost because yesterday was a really good day.. almost no upset stomach, and I only puked once. Today I puked 3 times before 11! And then 2 more times on the way to moms. Ugg. I mean I threw up so hard that it made blood flow stop to my face for a split second, and I have some busted capillaries in my face..

I hate throwing up!

I'm sure everyone does!

KAM has started calling him/her bean baby! Because when she went with me to the doctor we both agreed it looked like a little lima bean on the monitor. WH hates it being called a bean. I think its cute.

I'm trying to find some maternity clothes. My hips are starting to get bigger.. which is great.. not like i didnt have big enough hips to start out with.

On a kinda sour note. I got two things of bad news. 1.) WH got laid off from work. The up side is that he should have another job here pretty soon. 2.) I had some abnormal cells on my cervix and I have to go back to the doctor to have them checked. The only thing they said was that its not cancer, and that its not and STD. So wish me luck with all of these sour notes. Please!

Doctor, Doctor

So I went to the Doctor on Monday. Yes I know its Wednesday, but morning sickness is kicking my ass and I'm lucky if I can pull myself out of the bed or away from the toilet!

The Doctor, which is not the one delivering my little bundle of joy(whoever is on call that day will), is great. I really really like her. As of Monday I was 6 weeks and 4 days. So that makes me 6 weeks 6 days today!

After the initial shock has wore off I'm super excited. At first I kept thinking how did this happen. We used protection. But I guess everything happens for a reason! I told my sisters and my brothers. My big Brother took it the hardest. He was crying when I got off the phone with him. Which makes me want to cry again just thinking about it. The sisters took it alright. I mean I'm the baby sister and they still think of me as if I'm 9 years old. But they are happy for me and are willing to help out in any way they can. Which right now is just being there for me. My mother finally came around after 5 days of not talking to me. And WH mom and dad are still making plans for babysitting when he/she gets here!

As soon as I get a good pic of the ultrasound Ill put it on here.
Wish me luck!
