Baby update

Well, my friend Karen had her baby last night and I was able to be among the first few to see her(other than hospital staff that is!) Today I got to see my newest addition via ultrasound. It was so tiny! But there was movement which I guess was a heartbeat. Unfortunately we also saw a cyst that is the cause of some major cramps, so I’ll get another u/s at my next appt in a month to see if it’s gotten better or not. I had cysts w/ both of the other kids too but they went away so it’s probably not a big deal, other than the pain part! The dr was great, I saw her w/ my last pregnancy too and she remembered me. Which is good considering I never saw the saw dr throughout the pregnancy, I saw them all equally I believe. my due date is April 16th but she said they’ll do a c-section 10 days prior which makes it April 6th. My brother and his son’s birthday are April 7th so I think it would be cool to make it for that day. I mean my mom had a baby on April 7th, my brother’s wife had a baby that day(and it was my brother who mom had that day) and I could possibly have a baby on that day!

As I type Caleb is saying we need to think of a name for the baby, he says we need a girl since we dont have one. I agree! but we’ll see, a boy would be less expensive since we have all boy stuff. well gotta get…I’m so hungry and tired; not to mention someone needs a diaper change. so all is well w/ baby and I although we’re still waiting for my thyroid bloodwork results and all of the other ones from today.

    Congrates to your friend! That is great that you already went to see the doc. I am going with a new OB and they are making me wait until Sept 22 (My son’s first birthday) to go in. I am due probably April 15. So I will be almost 12 weeks then. Kind of sucks. But ah well. Glad you saw a heartbeat!

    All but one of my kids was born on a relative’s birthday. It makes it so easy to remember! Thanks for your comment today. It made me laugh, because I am the same way. I will type up a comment and then close the window without submitting it. Not this time though!
