Wow biggest slacker in the world of blogging.. yes this is me ;) It's been 8 weeks since my last update and lots has happened with this pregnancy.
Went to my July 13th u/s and baby still was stubborn :p Kaeden got bored with the u/s and they still didn't get everything they needed so I was scheduled for ANOTHER u/s on Aug 17th. Went to the Aug 17th appt and found out that my Little O is still being stubborn. After all of these u/s's I still have no good profile shots or good face shots. Also found out that part of the reason for needing a repeat u/s was that my fluid is measuring low and baby is measuring a bit on the small side. Fluid went up from my July u/s however it's still on the low end and they want to keep a close eye on Little O. We go in yet again on Aug 31st for ANOTHER u/s to check on this kid. Go figure the one baby that we are NOT finding out the sex and this kid keeps making me go in for u/s and stay strong!!! Not an easy thing to do!!! I guess I will know one way or another what this baby is in the next 7-10 weeks so it would be silly to give in to my curiosity on Monday and peek. I am just praying that baby is healthy and growing and fluid is up come Monday and that Little O gives us all the face shots and profile shots and hand and foot shots that we need!!!!!!!!!! Also managed to not only fail my 1hr glucose test but I failed the 3hr as well and have been diagnosed with Gestational diabetes :( I was sure I failed the 1hr due to my mocha that morning, but I guess not :( Now I am poking myself 4 times a day to check sugar and dont' get to see the nutritionist until Sept 9th!!! so far away! Just winging it until then. Been doing my best and trying to go on walks in the evenings etc. Just wanna make everything healthy if possible! It is a tad frustrating that this is the pregnancy that I have gained the least weight and stopped smoking and then Ih ave these problems... but it will all work out in the end. Little O is growing though and loves to roll and kick and wiggle and give me problems with my right back ribs!!!!! I am loving his movements so much and dread knowing that it's my last time to feel this. I just sit with my hands on my belly and enjoy my one on one time. He either loves or hates my rocking chair LOL It seems that everytime I sit in it he starts wiggling up a storm. I hope that if by some miracle this kiddo comes out a girl in the future they don't get mad at me for referring to her as "him" for the first 9mo of their life ;) I'm having more braxton hicks earlier then I remember having with either of the other 2 pregnancies. Nothing painful, just some tightening. Seems to happen lots when sitting in this chair at the laptop LOL Yes I finally purchased myself a laptop and a DSLR camera YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday Steven the boys and I all got to meet Riley and had a great afternoon. It was wonderful to watch all 3 brothers playing and getting along so nicely. Riley reminds me so much of Kaeden! It's crazy how similar their personalities are. I am excited to get to know him and hope to build a relationship with him. It was nice to know that he was here meeting up with Steven Kaeden and Kailer and KNOWING that they are his blood. The boys thought it was great and are ready to visit with him again! He really wanted to stay here and wasn't happy to leave so that was a good start. I hope this grows into something wonderful!
So thank god for Grandma Vicki! She's been such a help gathering and purchasing stuff to spoil the boys rotten and give them a rocking birthday party this coming Saturday. Kaeden turns 7 on Saturday and Kailer turns 4 Sept 8th... amazing and insane the way time has flown. Everything I planned on purchasing she's purchased and it's such a big help. Mom I appreciate your help and am so thankful for all you do! you have made this week MUCh easier on me then I had planned on it being. The boys both wanted a Disney's Bolt birthday theme so it should be a fun afternoon. After their party at noon we will head over to Patrick Park for Annette's 4th birthday party at 3pm.
Tomorrow is the last day of Summer Vacation. Kaeden starts first grade on Thurs! I'm so excited for him to go back to school and to get into a routine again. I think he's getting bored being at home through the day and him and his brother are fighting fighting fighting! Looking forward to MOPS starting soon as well!
signing off for now. Hoping to type more often now that I've done this update that I've been putting off for so long!
