Baby News

Me again! Just wanted to let you know the latest baby news. I went to the Dr yesterday and they were pretty surprised I had not gone into labor yet! Just based on the position of the baby. (Honestly, I should have went ahead and gone in on Tuesday night, but Kirk was out in Columbus for the night and I was waiting for him, of course 30 mins before he came home contractions just stopped!) So yesterday, the Dr and I made the decision to go ahead and induce this Monday(the 19th) at 5am. He said there is a very good chance I will go before though. So we are hoping that I do go before and can forego the induction but we will be happy either way.

We are very excited to know there is an end and we will have our little one in our arms sometime Monday!

Brady had a snow day today, which even though trying at times is nice to have both kids here so I can spend some time with them before #3 comes and joins us. They are very excited to see their new sibling. Bethany is very adimate about having a sister, and gets pretty upset when we tell her there is a chance is will be a brother so we shall see what this outcome will be. I was very emotional yesterday with Bethany, I think even more so then thinking I'm going to be delivering soon. Just thinking that Bethany will no longer be the baby, she's going to be a big sister! I definately have made some cuddle time with her and we've talked a lot about the changes that will happen. We also had a girl night painting toes(hers-lol) and finger nails.

If you could especially remember us this weekend as we go into this final stage of pregnancy, may it go smoothly!

We'll keep you posted!!

Love.

It's...

STILL A SURPRISE!!!

We went to have my 20 week ultrasound done last week. Baby #3 is very healthy, very active, and growing well. Yes, the sex of the baby is still a surprise. Actually, baby's legs were crossed so he/she wants it to be a surprise too, this baby gets it's parents already! :) The kids enjoyed seeing their new little baby on the screen. They thought it was pretty funny when it got the hiccups!

The one thing that we ask for prayer on is that the placenta is low, right now it is just considered low-lying to marginal previa. It is not covering the cervix yet, which is good and promising. We are hoping as my uterus stretches and grows the placenta will move itself up higher and we won't have any more risk. I would rather not have to have a c-section if possible. :) We will have another ultrasound at 28 weeks to see how things are progressing with it.

So other than the above little glich, I am doing well. Feeling better, just getting more round.

Here's a picture of baby #3:

Bun in the Oven

Well, we decided we might as well let the rest of the world know that we are expecting Baby #3!

I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow and Monday I saw and heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time. I really wasn't supposed to yet, but after a minor fender-bender while on an outing with friends the Dr wanted to check me out just in case. It gave us peace of mind and made us even more excited for this little one.

Brady is super excited about the baby and pretty much asks everyday how big the baby is and when it's coming. He knows that I've been feeling pretty crummy so he usually asks if the baby is making me sick again. haha He gives me as he calls "gentle hugs" and "he won't step on my toes" just at the right times.
Bethany at first said an adimate "no baby", but has since warmed up a little more and now has a baby of her own in her tummy. We rub our tummy's at the same time and look at baby magazines. :)

Here is a pic of our new little one , now remember this is a 9 week pic so he/she is just a little bean it's the white blob in the middle of the darkness. We think it's a darn cute bean though!
