Prayer Request

Alright, No pregnancy news today. I actually have some very close friends that could use some prayer for any of you who are interested so I thought I would spread the news.
Some of you may know Jamie and Liz and their son Isaac. Liz took Isaac in yesterday to get his iron checked because her grandmother (who was a nurse) said he had some signs of anemia (some coloration things). She asked the pediatrician about it and he sent him in for a test. About an hour or so after the test she recieved a phone call that she needed to come in immediatly to the Drs office. Her pediatrician was not in but another one in the practice got the results and saw need for concern. His red blood count is supposed to be near 11 point something and it was at a 4. They wanted a full CBC done on the bloodwork to see what was going on with the rest of his levels. The results showed that all of his levels were Extremley low and unfortunatly the pediatrician said the results look like Isaac has leukemia. Ughhhh.....It sucks even writting that! Anyway, he was taken to the hospital last night to have a blod transfusion and they are due at Rileys Children Hospital this morning. We are not real sure what thay are to expect in Indy yet but for those of you interested I will try to keep you informed. Thank God I havent had this baby yet because I was able to be up at the hospital with Liz last night before Jamie arrived. Liz seemed to be holding herself together REALLY well for isaacs sake. The poor little boy had No idea what was going on other than he was continually being poked and proded. There are really no words for what, I am sure, they are going through right now so Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers! Isaacs turns 2 tomorrow and I know this isnt what Jamie and Liz thought they would be doing for his birthday. Thank you again!

The Longest Day.......

Yes, Its me, I am still here and still as pregnant as can be. lol. You know its bad when your 5 year old wakes up and puts his hand on your tummy and says "Its still there, huh?" lmao! Today is a better day than yesterday....so far anyway. :) I am pretty sure yesterday was the longest day ever! My hormones must have been out of frickin control cause I thought I might lose my mind. :) Being 7 days past due I am sure didnt help any. :) This baby is going to be well cooked by the time it gets here. I know people say that I am not so big but I am afraid that I am going to have a huge baby if it keeps up. lol. Well, I have nothing really to post about but I thought I would give you all an update. :) If any of you have any ideas of things to do to keep my mind off of being pregnant then let me know! :)

OMG!!!

My Day Sucks! lol! I wrote this Whole HUGE Post about my miserable false labor last night and it got deleted when I was like 2 sentences away from being done! GRRRRRR..............So....in short..........I went to the hospital last night and ended up coming home cause my body thought it would play a little joke on me. I opted to leave as opposed to being induced but I have now given up the oppurtunity to have Ransom do a water birth since she is going on vacation. I guess I am just going to try the non medicated route with one of the 3 other drs or midwife that are more medical than I would prefer. I'm still a F ing 2cm and 50% effaced after a whole week of contractions! LMAO! I have to laugh or I might punch someone. J/K.......kinda, lol. :) On the Upside I get to go see the XFiles movie tonight :) . LOL! I have to have some sort of something to look forward to. :)

Overdue!!

I am now officially overdue!!!! Grrr...I know, its only a day, or not even I guess, since yesterday was my due date but it doesnt really matter when you feel like this. LOL!!! I know the baby will come when its ready but if it had consulted me I would have given it the go ahead a while ago. :) I know I could take measures to maybe help things along such as castor oil but part of me still wants to let the baby decide. I would feel awful if I were to induce my own labor and me or the baby wasnt ready. Of course, ask me in a few days and I'll let you know if I still feel the same way. lol. :) Again, part of my urgency is that my Dr is going to be going on vacation at the end of the week so that does worry me abit.....or alot. :) Hopefully I go before that and I wont have to stress about it. :) Then I will be blogging about my lack of sleep, nipple soreness, and crazy emotions. LOL!!! At least then, I will have a beautiful baby to hold and show off with it though. :)
I'll keep you posted! I will try to at least comment before I go into the hospital to give you all a heads up. :) No Guarantees though. :)

Still Pregnant!

Update!!! :) I am still, in fact, pregnant! I know that my official date is not till the 20th but I feel like I am overdue already. This nausea is driving me out of my mind!!!! I know that being done by the end is pretty standard but this seems worse than the first 2 times. It may have something to do with the heat of summer. Grrr.....I'm so not a fan! :)
Anyway, I had a Dr appointment this morning and I am 2 cm dilated and 50% effaced for any of you who know anything about "birthin babies". lol :) Nothing to get too excited about though. I do have to go in in a few minutes and get, yet another, ultrasound but its better to be safe than sorry. The babys heart rate is slower than it should be so we need to make sure everything is ok. I had to get one a week or so ago to check the size of the baby and that turned out fine. It just said the baby was small but growing fine. It did say the estimated due date was August 6th though.......LMAO.............I dont think so!!!!! Good thing they dont go by those. :)
The boys keep asking me when the baby is coming, so I think they are getting excited. Jack has been excited for a while but I think that Asher is just now getting the idea of what is really going on. I just cant wait to find out if this is a boy or a girl! The suspense is killing me!! lol, :)
Alright, I will keep you posted as to what the ultrasound says. I will either post again or just post on the comments. :) Hopefully soon I will actually have a baby to show pictures of. :) Oh, When you comment give me a guess on Girl or Boy and size. Just for fun! :)
