Making shirts for the hospital

It's a BOY!

After ending up at the hospital twice last week and then sent home, my water broke at 6AM on Thursday June 10th. Nathan Alexander was born at 3:02PM weighing in at 7 pounds 15 ounces at 37 1/2 weeks! He was estimated on Monday at 7 pounds 10 ounces by ultrasound. So I was going to have an amnio and induction next week anyhow! Daddy and the nurse delivered him after trying the epidural and it did not take and jumped from 4 to 10 in 20 minutes! The doctor did not even make it in time. He is adorable! I think he reminds me of Ryan when he was born, in fact I have called him Ryan a few times. We just love him!

36 Weeks

I hit the 36 week mark yesterday and I can not tell you how happy I am about that. The doctor said from this point on she will not stop my labor but she still wants me to rest to get to 37 weeks which is concidered full term. I am in soooo much pain this time. I have horrible back pains and can hardly get out of bed without pain in my hips and back. I have been having horrible contractions still mostly in the evening, but nothing that sends us to the hospital. I am slowely going to start increasing my activities in hopes that this baby might come at 38 weeks so I can avoid an induction. I am sure the doctors will try to induce about 39 weeks like they did with Ryan. Keeping my fingers crossed!

34 Week Check Up

I got checked today at the doctors because of some wicked contractions I have having and I am 50% effaced and a tip dilated. They put me on partial bed rest for the next week and half. And I am waiting for some test results to come back to say whether or not I will be on full bed rest Say a prayer that this little one holds out until atleast 36 weeks!

The Limo

This is our new triple stroller that I found off of Craigslist for a quarter of the price I would have paid brand new. It is almost like new. The woman hardly used it. I kind of know why now. It took me 45 minutes around the block which used to take me only 15 minutes. I think carrying around the extra belly weight did not help matters.
