30 Weeks

Just a quick update today! These damn leg cramps...every single night they wake me up! I had an appointment today with the OB and she told me to start taking calcium supplements, hopefully it works. Heart beat was 140bpm. So as of today I have gained 27lbs! We go back to UC Baby in 2 days, I'm pretty pumped!

29 Weeks - UC Baby

SHE IS SO CUTE! We went to UC Baby today, and our little girl (confirmed) is camera shy haha! She kept her hands up in her face pretty well the entire time, that or her feet! Her legs are straight up with her feet above her head. We got 59 pictures on a CD today, but they have asked us to come back again on August 26 and hopefully she will cooperate for us then. Next time they will give us more pictures and a DVD of the the ultrasound!

26 Weeks

Hmmm...so what's new? Lets see; I've already gained 16lbs! I am feeling pretty huge; I was at The Bay earlier this week and I actually walked right into a shelf! OUCH! Heartburn and leg cramps continue to wake me up in the middle of the night, I keep telling myself "it will all be worth it"! It's been really hot here these last two weeks...I am not one to complain about the heat - I love it, but good god this is insane LOL!

We bought the playpen and swing this week, and we also ordered a crib mattress! A little at a time....

I had an appointment with the OB today, my diabetes test results have come back negative WOO HOO! That makes me happy! Heart beat was 145bpm :) I asked about getting an epidural today (I have a tattoo on my lower back), she said that it won't be a problem, thank god....not that I am "planning" on getting one, but if I need it I will be taking it! I also inquired about getting a hospital tour, some people recommend it; the hospital is renovating and not offering tours anymore. Oh well! I have one more appointment in 4 weeks, then I will "graduate" (as the OB put it) to every two weeks. Yay, one step closer to having baby!

We have talked a little about a name...we both like Makayla Madison! She is getting really strong; she is kicking me like crazy, but mostly it feels like she is rolling from one side to the other. Watching my stomach move around really is just amazing! We decided to book an appointment at UC Baby, it will be on August 14, I CAN'T WAIT!

23 Weeks - Attack Of The Leg Cramps!

OUCH *#*@#$!! That is the only way I can describe this! I wake up in the middle of the night and I feel like I am dying! My legs are cramping so hard I don't even know how to explain it. They are rock hard and spasming! But on a happier note, our baby girl is so busy rolling around now, mostly at night while I am trying to watch tv and relax. I feel like she is doing somersaults, it kinda hurts but in the same time I love it!




We went down to Calgary this weekend for Stampede and my birthday weekend! Clint's sister is so generous and so excited to be an Auntie; she gave us money for the car seat to go with the stroller we have already bought! Yay, thanks Auntie!

22 Weeks

I am starting to feel really big!! Also, I am starting to wake up in the middle of the night with really bad heartburn...bring on the Tums!

We had an appointment with the OB yesterday, the results for spina bifida and down syndrome both came back negative YAY! She has now given me the requisition form for gestational diabetes so I will have to book an appointment for that soon! 150bpm today...I LOVE THAT SOUND!
