Amazing...

  • I really have no way of explaining how I felt when I saw the 3D/4D ultrasound of my son. He is so beautiful... His cheeks are super chubby and his nose is just like his daddy's. Daddy and I have long chins, so our son's chin looks like both of ours. It was incredible seeing him move his arms and open and close his little mouth. He made this lil scrunched up face a couple times and it was simply adorable. I am so attached to him.. man I can tell I am going to be super over-protective of my baby lol.
  • I remember laying there and looking at my baby move, and I swear he opened his eyes, "aw he opened his eyes," I said. The lady said "no, they cannot do that in there." So me, being the I-just-have-to-know girl, looks it up online and babies CAN open their eyes in their mothers womb. My beautiful son opened and closed his eyes multiple times.. and we have it saved on DVD =) The ultrasound viewing lasted 30 minutes, but I swear it felt like 5 minutes.. I was just so caught up and happy that the time flew by so quickly. I really wish they made inexpensive ultrasound machines so we could buy them and just look at our baby's at home whenever we please!!
  • If any of my -friends- would like to see a picture of his ultrasound, message me on MySpace and I will gladly let you see my beautiful son =) http://www.myspace.com/8Shazia8
  • Alrighty, well I just thought I would update.. We find out tomorrow the exact day our baby will be here =) Goodnight & God bless*

Painful!

  • When pregnant, a woman experiences contractions all throughout her entire pregnancy. The only time they are able to be felt is around 20 weeks and from there on. These contractions are called Braxton Hicks contractions and they just prepare a womans body for full-fledged labor.
  • Today I experienced the worse BH contractions I have had.. I even thought I was going into labor; they were that bad. My lower back was in pain, and everytime I had a contraction it felt like my pelvis was being shifted around or something... I was crying my eyes out. I called the emergency line at my doctors office and the doctor said what I am feeling isn't labor contractions, but if I wanted to go to Labor and Delivery at the hospital, I could go just to make sure I am okay.
  • I called Emmanuel and let him know that I am in a lot of pain and he should take me to the hospital. He brought Phil and De Neys, and it took them about 15 minutes to get to my house. Within those 15 minutes, my BH's slowed down and were going away. I felt kinda dumb that they drove so far to take me to the hospital and we didn't end up going, but contractions aren't something that I have power over... They hung out at my house for a while, and after I was completely okay and made sure I didn't need to go, they left.
  • On a MUCH higher note.. Tomorrow is our 3D/4D ultrasound =) I am so0o0o0 excited! We get to see my lil man at over 30 weeks, he is going to be so cute!! Although we have only had 2 other ultrasounds, seeing our baby on the computer screen just makes everything better in life for me...
  • Alrighty, I was suppose to go to sleep a long time ago =\ Goodnight and God bless*
