30 weeks and great news

Here is me at 30 weeks....HUGE!!! but we went to our dr today and he hookd me up to the heart rate machine thingy and for some odd reason he isnt sure but the babies heartbeat NEVER dropped once in the hour i was hooked up. I personally think i have someone watching out for me and that her heart rate only dropped so they would find the blood clot. We are so excited that she is doing well and cant wait untill she gets here

Not as easy as a was hoping for

It all started last wed the 13 my left leg was starting to get really sore like a had pulled a muscle, didnt think to much of it untill it started to swell and become really painful, so friday night i couldnt sleep cuz it hurt so bad so i decided in the morning i would call labor and delivery and see if they had any suggestions. I called at 6am sat morning and the nurse told me to come in when i could so i waited for Trent to get off work at 10 and he took me in, when i got there they hooked me up to the moniters and tried to find the babies heart beat, the only heart beat they could find was one that was in the mid 80's and they werent sure if it was mine or the babies so they got IVs started and called my dr right in (by this time i was scared to death and crying) my dr came in and he did and ultrasound and the baby was still there but her heart rate was being irregular and he couldnt figure out why, she didnt seem to be in distress so he called some specialist down and u of u and primary childrens and they sent me on my way down there. by the time i got to u of u my left leg was purple, swollen and i couldnt even walk on it, they got me in a room did and ultrasound on the baby and on my leg, the babies heart rate was going from 140 instantly down to 80 for only a few beats then right back up to 140. they were concerned it was a heart block where the uper chambers dont pump only the bottom ones do. we had lots of blood work done and ultrasounds done on our little baby. as for my leg i have a DVT which pretty much is a blood clot, it starts on my waist line and goes to mid thigh and that was causing the swellng the pain. the told me it is a very large clot and am lucky it didnt break way and head to my lungs or brain and didnt have a stroke. i have to have 2 shots a day in my stomach for the next 18 weeks to help the blood clot go away and t prevent for another, wich is going to make labor and delivey a little challenging because i cant be on my blood thinner shots when i delivery cuz of the bleeding so they will start me about 2 an a half weeks early so i can stop my shots when i deliver. As for the baby after three days in the hospital 11 viles of blood, 2 ultrasounds a day plus the EKG ( ultrasound of her heart from primary childrens) she has a PAC, premature atria contrantraction so the upper chamber of the heart tries to fill the lower chambers with blood before they are ready. the cardioligst sas this is common in about 80% of babies and once they are born they are perfectly fine. so we have one more visit with the cardioligst to do another EKG ultrasound just to make sure it doesnt turn into something more which he sayd there is only a 2% chance of that happenening. so as far as this pregnancy being easy...it was untill this but e are under control now!!

26 weeks

27 weeks

well i wish i could say im almost there but unfortunatly not as almost as i wish i was!! so far everything is going well the little one weighs just almost 2 pounds me and trent love to just lay there and watch her move and sometimes i cant help but laugh cuz it looks so funny the way my stomach moves. now that i am in my 3rd tri we go to the dr every 2-3weeks and for some reason i look forward to each time we go i know some people might think thats a little weird but i think its a sense of security. its been a pretty easy pregnancy so far other than lots of lower pressure she sits REALLY low but i hope for Trents sake it stays a pretty easy pregnancy or else he my not want to do this again!! lol!!
