Baby Rowan Coming Very SOON

Hey everyone. I just thought that I would write a new blog to let everyone know that I'm going to the hospital tomorrow. August 23rd at about 4pm to have this puppy. It has been a long and interesting pregnancy and I can't wait to hold my new little girl. Well, I'm in the process of trying to get everything in order since I won't be here at the house to make sure it's still here when I return. I will post pics on my myspace and facebook pages when I get home. I have plans to take lots of pictures so that shouldn't be a problem. Until then. everyone be safe and well

Weeks 37/38

Okay I'm 37 weeks and 6 days. I have a Dr appointment on Friday. James asked the doctor last week about inducing me and he said if I was dilated 2-3 cm. I'm hoping that this happens. I know I shouldn't complain but I'm just so tired of being pregnant and not being able to have control over things. Andrea started 1st grade this past week. I can't believe how fast she is growing up. She seems to really like school and she has her own desk for the first time. She was completely thrilled that she does not have to take a nap during school every day. Unfortunately, the night before school started Andrea had a little accident. She was playing ball outside and the ball got away from her and started to go down over the small hill behind our house. She ran to get it and tripped on the sidewalk. She did quite a number on herself. She has a scrape on her chin, scrapes on both of her elbows (the inside) and a pretty bad scrap on her knee. I'm still trying to figure out ...

August 13th

Hey all, Well, the kid is back home. Yeah!!! She starts 1st grade tomorrow. I can't believe that she is growing up so fast. I'm happy to report that she got the teacher that I really wanted her to have so she should have a good year. I'm still pregnant and don't think that it will ever end. I just want to have this kid. I'm 37 weeks and 1 day pregnant. I'm dilated 1 cm. James is doing well. He is the cat magnet. They seem to love him more than anyone else in the house. well i have a doctor appointment tomorrow. hopefully i'll be dilating more and maybe have this baby soon. We'll see k

Catching up on blogging

Ok, I haven't kept up on this like I promised myself. Go figure. Well let's see. Alot has happened since I had the 3D Ultrasound. I gained a few pounds and am back to losing again. I am currently 36 weeks pregnant and can't wait for Alyson to make her appearance. I have been going to the doctor at least once a week and have been off work since July 12. I landed myself in the hospital twice so far because of dehydration both times. Dehydration leads you to feeling like you are in labor, so take my advice, drink lots of water. :) The doctor now says that Aly is out of the danger zone and can be born at any time. I had a 4th ultrasound per the doctor's request on July 28th. That showed that she was approximately 6lbs 3oz with a big head and a due date of August 23rd. So I asked the dr. what that meant for me and he said that if I wanted he could induce around that date. I'm thinking it's not a bad idea. It would cut off about a week and half of being preggers. I ...

Newest Baby News

Hi all. We had a 3D Ultrasound done on the 3rd of July. We found out that the baby is going to be a girl. Her name will be Alyson Emma Rowan. We got some amazing pictures of her that I posted on my facebook and my myspace pages. She seems to really like her feet, they were near her head the entire time. I told Andi and she's mad at me, she wanted a baby brother. I tried explaining to her that we didn't get to choose what the baby was but that's hard since she only 6 1/2. I can't believe that in a couple of months Andi will be 7 and in 1st grade. It doesn't seem real. For those of you who have known me for a while, Andi was a real shock in my life and still manages to shock me every day. She is entirely too smart. Well, I'm off to work, shall write more later. Have a great day.

Ultrasound #3

Hi all. Okay so I had a third ultrasound on Wednesday. Since I have lost 24 pounds since going to the dr the first time. He decided to order another ultrasound. Trying to hold 16 oz of water in a already stressed bladder is not easy. I just wanted to pee. The tech did her measurements and James watched and tried not to fall asleep. Ultrasound room is pretty dark. She then showed us the baby. It is now out of the breach position which is good. Otherwise, we didn't get to see much. The baby is facing my back again. The baby didn't really give us a good indication as to the sex of the baby. Currently, the baby weighs 3 lbs and looks to be growing. James and I bought the crib and the mattress yesterday. James got it put together without too many problems. It is really cute. I am getting really excited about the baby. But I miss Andrea. Can't wait till she's home

Baby Report

I am due September 2, 2008. We still don't know what the baby is, boy or girl. We are supposed to find out on Wednesday if the baby will cooperate. We were supposed to have known in April but the little bugger wouldn't show us. I don't really care what the baby as long as it is healthy. If I got to choose however, I would choose to have a little boy. I would like to have one of each but I don't get to choose so that's okay. I have lost 24 pounds as of last Thursday. I cannot find an explanation as to why I am losing weight. Everyone asks me what is wrong but I honestly don't know. Even though I'm losing weight, the doctor says that the baby is doing really well, it is growing and the heart beat is strong. I have started seeing the doctor every two weeks for now until closer to my due date and then i will have to go in every week. Have a great day.

First Post

Hey Everyone, Just thought that I would create this blog to be able to let friends and family know what all is going on in our little world. James is a registered Radiology tech in the army. I'm working at Wal Mart as a cashier and 7 months pregnant Andrea is spending the summer in WV and getting ready for 1st grade Lazarus, Nemo and Ares are all ornery kitties as usual.
