I'm so tired right now, but my feet are in so much pain I want a bath first. But the child used so much hot water I have to wait awhile before I'll have enough. I tried a little earlier, but only got barely half a tub of warm water before it went cold. So I'm trying to wait long enough to get to soak my feet and legs. -
Movement
It's good to know that even when I don't feel Wyatt move for a couple days he's still healthy and kicking. I'm to feel him 10 times in an hour once a day. I usually do this between 10pm and 1am, as that is when he's almost always contantly moving. Even if I'm busy for the first half of this, when I calm down and relax (and pay attention) I can ( Read more... ) -
Cord Blood Banking
Just a quick post. I printed the form for Cord Blood Donation (so research or other American's can use Wyatt's umbilical cord blood stem cells to fight diseases instead of aborted fetus stem cells). 14 pages for the consents and paperwork. A bit much, but they do have to ask about all kinds of diseases so that the samples are safe for everyone ( Read more... ) -
28 weeks
Wow, another month has gone by and I haven't written a thing in here. Well, I'm now 28 weeks pregnant and though I'm showing it's not near as big as I'm sure I'm going to get. I am getting three baby showers, (one from my hometown, one from my coworkers, and one from my sister-in-law) with the first being next week. I always imagined my belly ( Read more... ) -
Remind me again why we chose this
We've got a busy weekend ahead. And it's only early afternoon on Sat. We have 2 extra kids until Tuesday; Monday a third extra kid is coming (but Michael's heading to my in-laws for the afternoon/night so that'll help). The last one is staying till Friday. Birthday party in 30 minutes, I work tomorrow, then another birthday party after work. ( Read more... ) -
Random stuff
I think I felt Wyatt move for the first time a couple days ago (Thursday). It was the first time I felt something I couldn't explain with anything else anyway. No idea if I've been feeling him and didn't know it, nor if this really was him moving. I just keep waiting for the day there's no doubt that's him I'm feeling. I figure one of these ( Read more... ) -
Had the ultrasound and...
It's a boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wyatt Eugene changed his due date to the 7th of December technically, but the ultrasound tech said since the original date of the 11th is so close, to go ahead and keep it as our expected due date.
I was actually afraid that no one would like the name we picked, but we haven't found one person who didn't like or absolutely ( Read more... ) -

Ok, so that pain in my tailbone...abcess. Small amt of puss so as it's technically an abcess because of what it is and it has puss in it, it's more the size of a large cyst. I went to a dr at my work on Friday (was there from noon -3 and got paid for 1.5 hrs due to appt). He put a numbing agent into my spine (right in the middle of the worst of ( Read more... ) -

Ok, anyone have any good solutions for dealing with a painful tailbone? I can't hardly sit and bending is out of the question. I need to sleep on my side now anyway, but I'd like to be able to roll from one side to the other without excruciating pain. I wanted to take a walk after work today, but even that much movement hurts. My ob's nurse ( Read more... ) -
Week 14
Apparently I get to live with headaches for the next 6 months. This bites. Some days it's not bad if there at all. Others, like yesterday, it just won't go away. I have to say this is the worst pregnancy symptom yet. I didn't have nausea very long since I didn't have to take the prenatal vitamins for long (they made me so sick one day my dr ( Read more... )
