Today was SO not my day..... but first things first... I had my First Iron transfusion Yesterday and it went OK Besides the nurse not knowing what the heck she was doing.... Hubby watched the lil one while i stayed at the hospital. I might have another one tomorrow but i wont know for sure until 1 hour prior to my appointment... { i get squeezed in when someone cancels }
I Gained a total of 13 pounds so far, which kind of bugs me BUT i am 25 weeks along already and i am right on target so i try not to worry too much about it. Baby seems to be doing GREAT s/he is kicking up a storm as i type <3 Monday i have my next ultrasound and on wednesday my regular OB/gyn appointment. I cant believe that in max 14 weeks this baby will be born!.
Well today didnt go as planned AT ALL.. Hubby had to go into work at 0100 and was supposed to be back before noon... well he got home at 1500 we went to get my nails done and some groceries, when all of a sudden i felt like CRAP. I made it out of walmart and into the car just in time when i got sick { thank God for walmart plastic bags} it scared the CRAP out of Bells and she started crying :( poor babygirl i am feeling a lil better but i am still afraid to eat / drink... i felt off all day today and knew it was coming :( if its not better by tomorrow i will call my OB/GYN and see if i can get seen before monday/wednesday.
Well i guess thats it for now, i will be going back to bed and have hubby baby me!

103 days to go
today i went on "i am pregnant" to get my weekly update on Baby and it says:
There are 110 days until your due date on August 13, 2012.
You are 170 days pregnant.
You are 5.6 months pregnant.
You are in your 6th month of pregnancy.
Your 1st trimester: November 07, 2011 to February 05, 2012. (0 - 12 weeks)
Your 2nd trimester: February 06, 2012 to May 20, 2012. (13 - 27 weeks)
Your 3rd trimester: May 21, 2012 to August 13, 2012. (28 - 40 weeks)
Then it hit me that i might only have anything between 89-103 days left depending on the results of our next ultrasounds. Baby is VERY active & i cherish each and every kick and roll baby does in my tummy, we have come along way and i honestly didnt expect sticky bean to stay with us for that long. This week also marks a BIG milestone, by the end of this week, baby has a good chance of survivig { with A LOT of help of course} should baby be born soon. I know, i know i probably should think about it this way, and i sure as hell hope baby will NOT be born before week 37 but it gives me somewat a piece of mind.
Like i said Baby is active A LOT especially when Daddy talks to him/her

Every Night, hubby says good night to baby and i guess there is something about his voice that makes baby tumble and kick like crazy <3
My belly is SUPER LOW, but my uterus / baby are right below my Ribs, i think its because of the placenta previa / bilobed placenta. I <3 my bump.
The Girls are super excited about Baby, they love on my tummy and talk to baby every day. Bells tells me how she can't wait to hold baby, and change baby's diapers, and hailey tells everyone that mommy has a baby in her tummy. They are such a blessing.
I just realized that this has been the first REAL update {with pics & stuff} in a LONG time. i am sorry ladies, but i have been super busy lately

First visit to the L&D
I woke up this morning and i just felt weird. I had a headache and was super dizzy. I thought it might be because i didnt drink enough water, so i upped my Water intake. My husband came home after PT to take me and the lil one to the Pediatr. for haileys appointment. I still felt "weird" and by the time we got done with hailey's appoitnment i was so dizzy that i could barely sit.
T decided to take me to the ER esp since i had some odd "braxton hicks" we got to the ER/L&D at 10:30 and i was hooked up to the Togo right away. They did bloodwork and pushed fluids through an IV and did some Swabs. My Heartrate was through the roof, i was shaky and dizzy. We sat at the ER for FOUR hours until my Lab results FINALLY came back, my Iron is super low. its supposed to be in the 40's and mine is only 25 EEKKK. I am on also on antibiotics for an Infection {not a yeast infection but i have more "normal" bacteria then most women so i have to take the Pills twice a day for 2 weeks or so}
They first wanted me to just stick with my Iron pills, but the Doc said that it would be better to give me an IV Iron Transfusion. I have to have 5 sessions { one session takes 3 hours} ON TOP of taking my Iron.... Why is my Iron level so important??? i am more likely to bleed during my c-section due to the possible accreta. If i dont get my iron level up by the time i am supposed to deliver OR Baby doesnt Tolerate the Transfusion, i have to have a blood transfusion.
its been a long and exhausting day, The highlight was, to see the lil one on the schreen <3
I am off for tonight <3
