Here we go. Today is a gloomy day in Missouri. The clouds are out and stormy weather is in the air. Yesterday it was in the upper 70s and wonderful. My son and I took a walk and went to see daddy at his bank. It is like 2 blks from where we live. My son loved it. Then we came back home and played in the dirt. He loves the dirt.
I have been really busy this past weekend. I got my angel baby's room all done. I also got my son's room done. If i knew how to download pics onto her, I would show some. Anyways, I also am finding a new found hobby. I am going to start making some hair bows that clip onto the headbands for girl babies-toddlers. they also can just be put into a little girls hair.
I am also getting ready for my son's birthday party. He is going to be 2. WOw, that is hard to believe. The day after that, my friend and my mom are throwing me a baby shower. I also picked up a bassinet yesterday that a really nice friend gave to me. She had triplets and is done having kids. So she gave this white wicker bassinet to me. We never had one with my son. He slept in bed with us. She will be too small, I imagine, to sleep with us. We might let her when she gets older. It is soooo much easier for the baby and me. We all get sleep. With my son, I would nurse him and fall asleep and so would he. I was there for him all night long. We would sleep until 8:ooam. When he was about 8months old, we put him in his own bed and stopped the nighttime nursings. It was tough for both of us. He finally got the hang of it. With her, we will just have to see how things go and what type of baby she is!!
Good News on the homefront. I had an MRI a week ago. I called for the results. THere is now sign of recurrence in the pelvic region. Husband and I were very excited about that. They also schedule the csection for May 21st. 9weeks away!!!! I am soo excited for this time to fly by and for her to be here. She is doing great. Her heartrate was in the 160s and as of last week, she was already 2lbs 2 oz. They will do growth scan ultrasounds periodically to ck on her. I am doing great. I am not gaining as much weight with her as I did with my son. That is a plus!! One thing that I was impressed by when we met with the Maternal Fetal Medicine Dr. (Dr that is going to deliver her) was that he suggest that I take along with my vitamins either fish oil, flax oil, or Expecta DHA Lipil capsules. These all contain Omega 3 Fatty Acids. These are great for baby's brain developement!!! I was suprised that he suggested taking this. I have never been told that. I was always afraid to take my flax oil!!
Well, I think that is enough updating for now. I will try to get on her more often. Oh yeah, my son is now obsessed with playdough I have to roll it into a ball and her carries it around all day!!!
