My Milestones & Events

My Baby's Birthday!
He's here! Deklan was born at 9:59 am weighing 8 lbs and 19 1/2 in long. I had a problem during the c/s, I lost a ton of blood, my pressure kept dropping and my temp was really low too. I was given dbl the amount of pitocin to help with the bleeding and almost needed a transfusion. Right after Deklan was born he had severe trouble breathing and was transported out of state to a NICU in VT. I had a horrible night last night with vomitting, pressure dropping and low oxygen, so I had to have oxygen all night. But this morning I was perfect, I took a shower and walked around and haven't had any pain at all. They let me go today so I can go to be with my son tmrw morn, there is nothing like the feeling of leaving the hosp without your baby...

Baby Shower
Had a very intimate baby shower with 6 of my closest friends and family. It was perfect! Little man got alot of gifts that he still needed and mom got a present too. Now I'm officially ready for him to come!

Packed for the Hospital/Birth Center
Decided to start getting things together. Packed all of the stuff for the baby, and for myself I packed my clothes and almost all of the toiletries I'll need. The only thing left to pack is the camera, phone, and car seat!

Husband/Partner Felt Baby Move for the First Time
Dh refuses to feel the baby move b/c it creeps him out so I promised him I'd never ask again if he felt it this one time.

Neural Tube U/S and AFP Bloodwork
Since two of my children have a neurological disorder my dr ordered a 1st tri neural tube u/s along with bloodwork to rule out any problems. I will have the test again in my 2nd tri.

First Prenatal Appointment
Had the initial appt with the nurse to cover my medical history and my first set of "pregnancy labs" done today. They had a hard time finding a vein and I'm bruised to high heaven. Worth it though! :)

Started the Nursery
Got a beautiful pine crib and changing table from a good friend. Thinking of decorating the nursery in either sage green or yellow- nice bright "happy" colors for either a boy or girl.

Picked a Name
We picked a boy name first, boy's are always easier to choose. Deklan Michael
We just recently chose a girl's name. Morgen Elizabeth

Announced Pregnancy to Family
Went to have an ultrasound for something else and the technician saw the baby. I was very shocked to find out I was pregnant! I told my fiance and then called my mother.

First Positive Pregnancy Test
I didn't trust the ultrasound because I was so newly pregnant so I went out and bought a test to take at home....It was instantly positive!

On January 2, 2013 at 5 weeks 3 days pregnant
Told Husband/Partner
Came home after the ultrasound on cloud nine, took the pregnancy test as soon as I could pee and showed my fiance the results. I almost had to pick him up off the floor. This pregnancy was very unexpected!
