Kaitlyn update 39 weeks....

Well our little peanut is an acrobat or the next Mary Lou Retton..... She has once again flipped the wrong way and her head is up high near my ribs.... So we will have our little girl on Monday at St Francis Hospital.... I will be going there at 7 am in the morning for her to me manually turned then if it is successful they are going to break my water and induce me.... If the procedure is not successful I will have an immediate c-section.... I am so scared about having a c-section but I know that God will be with me and our little Kaitlyn... Please say a little prayer for us...

Kaitlyn update 38 weeks...

Well I'm 3cm dialated and my membranes are stripped... My Dr. said she will probably be here this weekend... Yay... The only thing is that she is still high... So I have to do a lot of walking these next couple of days... Wish us luck... I can't wait to meet my little girl... We have both been so stressed out these past few days... Can't wait for cuddle time...

Kaitlyn Update...

Well Friday I went to the Dr for my normal NST test and then an ultra-sound to find that little Missy turned sideways.... The Dr. told me that her being breech that they would manually move her by putting their hands on my belly and actually move her to where she should be... Well I was a mess all weekend... I searched online for remedies that I could do on my own for her to turn on her own... Well the few things I found I did... I'm sure as I'm telling you this you are probably going to laugh your butt off.... So here it goes... The one maneuver was called pelvic tilt here I had to raise my butt up over my head by 15 inches... Well Bob helped me get pillows under my hips.... Now mind you my stomach is huge and I can't bend so doing this was so funny... The blood was rushing to my head I couldn't stop laughing and with pregnancy feeling like I was going to pee all over myself...LOL.... Well I did this position for 15 mins 3 times a day for 2 days.... Then after that I took frozen veggies and placed them on the side where her head was on my stomach while holding a flashlight under my stomach.... This was done due to the theory that babies like to be warm and comfy so the cold veggies she would not like the cold feelings and want to get to the light and feel warm from the flashlight... Well I did this several times a day for the weekend too... Well Today I went to the Dr. and she did it.... She's head down and in the right position... Yay... So either the maneuvers helped or she just did it on her own... Don't know... All I know is that she is where she is suppose to be and I'm happy and blessed... Let's just hope that this Full Moon Tonight gets this little girl out...LOL...

36 week Update...

Not too much to report... Went to the Dr yesterday and I'm measuring 39 weeks so my Dr. said she is going to be a good size and she's coming soon.... I feel like I'm smaller than I was with the boys but we will see... I only gained a total of 32 lbs. with this little one... Get ready for this one with Ty I gained 75 lbs but literally about 75% of it was water... I was so swollen and had pre-clampsia with him... And with Jake I gained 50 lbs... Can't blame anything on that weight gain I just craved tons of everything... So Miss Kaitlyn is enjoying her stay with me and is probably not going to be making her entrance this week.... Can't wait to see who she looks like... I'm also anxious to see the reaction of Bobby holding his first Daughter... I feel so bad for her already she is never going to be able to date... I've seen how protective he was with his sisters and now a daughter... And I'm also wondering how Jake is going to react.... Lots of changes coming our way very soon....

Too funny...


I saw this pic on a pregnancy blog that I'm on and it made me laugh... It reminds me of my Sister-in-law Chrissy.... She had or probably still has a picture of Rosie (the original one not preggo one) and she is the most independant girl I know and I love her...
