Kids are gaining weight! Lets just hope it keeps up. Not back to birth weight yet, but on our way. Finally got them in with their regular Doc too. Cross your fingers, say a prayer, whatever it takes, that things will continue to go well for them. :-D

Better day by far. Carter managed to hold on to about 50 grams, so we got the all clear from the hospital to quit the damn daily drive and just go to his regular Doc here in town on Thursday. Zoloft is doing it's job, so I'm not all crazy anymore. In fact, I feel pretty downright sane. They tell me it's "Baby blues" with a chance of going all ( Read more... )

And Travis, I got your message, but totally didn't get it until today. That's what happens when my dumb ass forgets my phone ( Read more... )

Catherine Jeannette "CJ" Eggleston was born at 1123am May 1, 2009 weighing in at 4lbs 7oz.

Carter Girard Eggleston was born one minute later, 1124am May 1, 2009 at 5lbs and 5oz.

No NICU time!!!!!!!!!

So, a week in the hospital isn't bad enough...

First it was Carter absorbing all the nutrients so CJ couldn't, and didn't, grow well. NOW, after staying head down for the last two and 1/2 months, Carter figured out the day before he was to be born, how to flip over and become breach.

Guess what? C-section, 0930 tomorrow morning.

Fucking

Boy, things are moving faster than I expected. Looks like I'm looking at an induction on Friday instead of Monday.

So, Friday was supposed to be a routine appointment with the OB down in Everett. As a fluke, Robert took time off work to go with me. Thank God because if he hadn't been there I would have lost my freaking mind ( Read more... )

I would really like to get through a day with no hospital visit.

I can't believe it! Today is Harlan's 5th birthday! Today, as well, he's legal to ride motorcycle, so Daddy took him for his first ride this morning. Kid did very well. How fast time flies though. 5 years ago he was born at 6:35 in the morning on a Sunday morning, 7lbs 9oz and 21 inches. Not the kid is like 4 foot something or something and ( Read more... )

Is it bad? I just sat down and ate an entire pint of Ben and Jerry's Half Baked. (My favorite flavor.) I totally didn't even realize just how much I had, just wanted to have a little. I'm telling you, I'm not really pregnant, I'm just plain fat. Hahahahah.
