BABY IS HERE

Hey everyone, sorry i have not posted sooner, life as i know it now is crazy, (in a wonderful kinda way). As all of you already know, we met our little boy on Sept. 14th, (two weeks ago today) @ 2:23pm. He weighed 8pounds 3ounces, and was 19 and a half inches long. I will be posting my birth story later, once i have time to really sit down and write it.



Things are going wonderfully, ,and we are SO blessed and SOOO in love already with our little man. I honestly could not have asked for anything else or more, he exceeds everything i could have dreamed up. ♥

I will be posting more now that i have some time and things have calmed down a bit. Im still getting the hang of it all so be patient with me ;)

Quick update....


I had my next appt. Tuesday, where i showed NO progress in dilation or anything. SO she MAJORLY stripped my membranes again and told me if this didn't work then nothing would at this point. And i will have to be induced sometime next week if nothing happens.

So this morning i THINK i may have gotten a slow leak in my water. :D My mom and i are going to hurry and get ready, and head up to the hospital, as soon as my hubby gets home. This may just be the day...oh man... Dan had guessed the 10th from the beginning, so i guess we will see?! Keep up in your prayers today and we will keep everyone updated..

I hope this is it, ill be so embarrassed if i go in and it turns out im slowly peeing my pants... LOL

72 hour wait

Quick update on my appointment today:

Things were going good, she checked me and i was at a full 2cm dilated and about 75% effaced! (progress none the less!) She decided to do a membrane sweep on me to help progress things, which i have to say was a bit more painful then expected. She said if my body is ready for labor and the baby is ready to come then this should jump start labor with in the next 72 hours! The baby has and was so low today that she was able to touch his head with no problems. WHOA! So now we're waiting to see if this worked, and i start to progress faster with my contractions or my water to break. I was actually really relieved she did the sweep today, and praying it will work. my back has been and is the worst i have ever had it, i have almost fallen a few times and almost had to call Dan to help me out with walking... :/ Most movements send a sharp shooting pain down my leg or up my back, to the point my leg just gives out. I dont know what to really do about this, and it does make me nervous for labor with it like this. SO please i really need your prayers, healing for this pinched nerve, especially so i am able to get around by myself, or at least walk around the house with out falling or using things to keep me up..

Thank you its much needed right now. :)
I will keep you updated with everything, and IF anything happens in the next three days! (hopefully it will) :)
