Baby Maren

So this morning I went to the doctor to have an ultrasound to check the size and if the baby was breech. Right now she is 6 lbs 8 oz and she it not breech. Thank goodness. Bad news: there is too much fluid aound her so I am now considerend HIGH risk. I have to have a stress test 2 times a week and have an ultrasound in addition to my regular doctor visits. So I will be living at the hospital. I am super glad that they are taking such great care of me. It makes me wonder if I had the same problem with Kodi and no one ever checked to see when I was in New Mexico. I am so grateful for insurance and being able to go to the best doctor now. I am totally freaked out about what is going to happen, but deep down I am just so glad that I have so many people looking out for me. Especially my Heavenly Father.

Well today started off not so fun. Kodi had her 15month shots yesterday, boo. So last night she woke up at like 3:30 am. Since I have a very active baby inside I was not able to get back to sleep. So I have been awake since 3:30. Then Kodi decided to wake up for the day at 5:00am. Yeah me. Well actually she was so happy to see me and she was all smiles. We sat on the couch together and she watched cartoons. Every 5 minutes she would look at me and give me a cheesy grin then she would jump on top of me and give me a hug. So that part was pretty nice. But then when Andrew finally got up he started ordering me around, telling me how I needed to do all these different things. And let me tell you I do not take orders, especially since I did not get much sleep and I also played with Kodi for 2 hours while he slept. I am positive that pregnancy is the time in a man's life where he is just way out of touch. I honestly feel bad for men when their wives are prego. I know for me I am so moody. One minute I want nothing to do with Andrew then the next I am crying because he hasn't said anything nice to me that day. I am so ready to be over this craziness. And I am sure that Andrew is also. :) But this morning it was snowing again. I was a rebel and decided to wear some ballerina flats instead of real shoes. I went to the grocery store since I was not going into work until after I went to a doctors appointment. By the time I got out of WinCo there were big puddle of water that could not be avoided, so my feet got really wet and cold. Then I had to pack all my food and other grocery store crap inside. I got the lovely opportunity to go to the doctors office. I am now to the point where I have those really, super, amazingly not fun weekly appointments. Urgh! But good news my baby is fine. She might be breech right now so I am going for an ultrasound on Friday. If she is in fact breech then I have to go to the hospital on Monday and have her turned. (I really hope that I don't have to do that, so pray that I don't) The whole process of turning a baby sounds painful and not fun for mommy or baby.


I need to put up some pictures this week. Kodi had a great easter. We got to spend time with my family. All is well in Pocatello. I am pretty sure that I am falling asleep while I am writing all this. So if I made no sence at all forgive me. I have 22 days left to be pregnant.

April 2011

Well as of today I have 37 more days to be pregnant with my second child. WOO HOO!!!!!! This last weekend I was with some of my sister-in-laws and we were talking about contractions. I had not had any this pregnancy and I was feeling really good about that. I told them that I hadn't had any so far. Then the very next day I had a bunch. Since then I just keep randomly having really hard contractions. They are not close together and they vary in length of time. So I am not worried, but I never should have said anything. DANG!. But back to seeing my sister-in-laws. We all met in Utah and had a grand ol' time. I laugh so much when ever I hang out with the. I just love them so much. Plus we got to go shopping and I love to shop. The weather was really crappy and it snow/rained the whole time. We were really dumb and didnot take any pictures and I am super sad about that, but oh well. April looks like it will be a busy month so look out I am sure I will have lots to share. :)
