Little Baby #3



Here is baby #3!!! Isn't he/she adorable!:) She/he was moving around the whole time, but kept her back to us. Maggie was sooooo excited to see the baby. David wasn't excited until they put the gel on me and then he saw the baby pop up on the screen. It is always so exciting to see the baby for the first time on that little screen. I am 9 weeks along and already counting down until I am NOT pregnant anymore!! Less than 7 months!!! I have really good days and really, really bad days. I usually take my phinagrin by 7:00 and then go to bed. I have also found that when I do too much in a day, I will pay for it the next day. So I am going to try not to do too much in a day and take it easy. I figure all of these extra hours of sleep is ok because I will have about a year of no sleep. Something to look forward to! April 21, 2011 is the due date. I am so excited to have a baby nowhere near December. My doctor also told me that since I have had preterm labor with both of my pregnancies, starting at 16 weeks I can get weekly shots to help my go full term. Since we are out in Utah and majority of our family is in Arkansas, it would really be nice to have a better idea of the due date! Lots to think about. Anyways we are just so excited about this 3rd little baby and I can't wait to find out if it is a boy or a girl. It feels like forever since we have had a little baby around and we just can't wait to have that little angel in our house!!

YAY! how exciting! sorry that you are feeling so bad, when I was pregnant with Anna I got some kind of meds that helped with the sickness but it did not put me to sleep, I can't remember the name of it but you might want to ask your doctor about it, I know that the meds you are on work but man can they knock you out! congrats on the baby!

One word: Zofran. It's much, much better than phenergan with minimal side effects (aka falling asleep).

Good luck! Three children is total chaos. Of course, I'm only on week two of three kids...I'm hoping it gets better. Or at least becomes organized chaos.

Thanks y'all! I actually called my doctor and he called in another prescription for me, so I am very excited! Jillayne, I am very nervous about 3 kids, because I only have 2 hands! We'll see how my kids do with a little baby around here. Everyone says 3 kids are the hardest and then after that you don't even notice the extra kid!:)
