15 more weeks to go! Seams like nothing!!! Where to start, Makenzi is so active she is moving constantly. Daddy has got to feel her kick 3times now and mommy all the time! She is so high and in my ribs! She has already turned and my DR thinks she wont turn again so I am glad. When I went for my 20week anatomy scan my placenta was low well at my DR appt last week it had moved up! I am so glad because I just did not want a C-section. My blood pressure was low at my last appt. Her room is SLOWLY coming along. We got the bedding and of course the furniture, and the changing pad. Shes been getting TONS of clothes so her closet is getting FULL. Many of you know that Canon will be deploying in the next 2months and he will not be here for her birth and he will not be home till she is 4-6months old. We were told we are looking more toward her being 6months old. I have came to terms with it. I will have my mom, sister and bestfriend to help me through this time. I am still by all means very upset and cry about it daily but I am trying not to dweel on the bad. I can not control this so why be so up set and fight something that I can not change. Canon is so very exctied to deploy, he has been waiting for this day for almost 2years now! I am happy for him. He will be re-enlisting while he is in Iraq, not sure for how long. Dec 5th I have an ultrasound with the radiollogy department for them me documnt the my placenta went up. Also that day I have to take my 28weeks Glucose test and Dec 10th is my next DR appt. Canon and I will be going home for Christmas on Dec15th or the 18th we still have not got the official date yet...still kinda in limbo. We are goign to have a 3D/4D around thoes days and i can not wait to see what our little girl is going to look like! Since I have not showed a picture for a while I am gonna start them form 20 weeks!

Its A GIRL!!!! October 16, 2008

We are having a little princess! Her name is Makenzi Leigh Lemon. She was very stubborn in the ultrasound and was moving like crazy and all balled up! But she is most definitely a girl! She is measuring 5 days ahead. So my due date could be changed to March 3rd..I hope so. She is weighing 14 OZ and all her measurements were great. Her heart beat was 147. Here is our little princess.

3 little lines, ITS A GIRL!

her little hand and fingers.

Her legs close together and ankles crossed! Mommys good girl! She does have daddys LONG legs!

Her head, spine and belly. Her legs are curled up under her but you cant really see them.

Well there she is! Our Pride and joy! I cant wait to get her 3D/4D ultrasound in December.

15 weeks, September 14, 2008

25 more weeks to go! It seams like just yesterday i found out that i was pregnant. I cant help but look at my baby (ultrasounds) and cry and think how much of a miracle children are! Last Tuesday we got to hear the baby's heart beat, 140! and we also got to see him or her! I am just amazed by it!!! Ive had what i think is Braxton Hicks and the nice kicking of the bladder ALL the time! Other then that I am great! Baby is also great! I go back on Sept 26th to HOPEFULLY find out the sex!

14 weeks, September 9, 2008

Well another week gone by and it was a little scary! I had to take a trip to the ER cause ive been having some cramping but it turned out to be round ligament pain and the baby kicking me really hard in my hips. We got an ultrasound and got to hear the babys heart beat which was at 152!

How ive been feeling? GREAT! Couldnt be better. Ive felt a few little kicks and the baby rolling around in there. Which that is the weirdest. It feels so funky! Ive got HUGE and my boobs WOW yea I can feel that too! Ive got a DR appt today and we are doing the down syndrome test and she has to check my amniotic fluid so we might be able to find out the sex!!!

ER Visit!!!! September 5, 2008

Canon and I went to the ER yesterday. I have been having some cramping for a few days and at first I thought of it as growing pain then yesterday as we were walking around walmart it got pretty bad so we went to the ER. We got there and got admitted and took a UA and got back to the room. We got an ultrasound, had a pelvic exam and then heard the heart beat. Everything looked good cervix was closed baby was moving like crazy good heartbeat of 152. They forgot to send back my UA and some others they got from the pelvix exam so we left and they are going to call me with the results. You see i had a UTI so i think possibly that it did not go away or it spread to my kidneys. I am praying not! The DR did say that it looked like i have low anamotic fluid but then he could measure anythign cause that ultrasound machine was old and outdated and mostly broke. All i am to do now is follow up with my DR which i have an apt on tuesday anyway. So thats what I will do. For now.

13 weeks, September 2, 2008

So I am 13 weeks nothing new...ugg just some flutters. I had a UTI and thats no fun. So really nothing new. I had a Wic apt today and i lost 2 more LBS so now im down 4-5 LBS so far but that is okay for now I am not supposed to gain weight till 20 weeks.

12 weeks preggo, August 24, 2008

Well here we are another week! This week has been so exciting! I have felt flutters 3 times! well now 4 as I was sitting here typing i felt one. its usually when I am laying down with my feet up. Its the most amazing feeling in the world. I cant wait to really feel the baby kick my guts out! Ive had some round ligament pain and have really felt that the baby has grown in the past week!

11 weeks, August 17, 2008

Well another week sooner to our little one to be here! Not much has happened. My boobs hurt and im really tired! BUT we did get the babys furniture! yay it is so cute!

DR appt today, August 12, 2008

I had a some what good DRs apt today. The baby decided to do what mommy told him NOT to do which is stay still to find the heart beat but as soon as she found it we got to hear it for 30seconds and then he ran away. But I am glad to report that baby has a really good strong heart beat! Now to the blood pressure it was lower then what it has been but the bottom number was kinda high so my nurse didn't seam to worried but then Mrs. Hopper, the DR im seeing while my DR is on Maternity Leave is really concerned. She was actually gonna start me on blood pressure meds, WTC, yea i know! Well so she check it again and it was 115/90 which for me is great but still the bottom number had her worried! O well. All my test that I took 2weeks ago came back very great numbers so they have just basicly decided that my hihg blood pressure was just my "normal". So i will go back in 4 weeks which i will be 14 going on 15 weeks and we will do my Quant level testing to check for Down Syndrome and all that stuff. Then we will schedule my ultrasound to find out the sex! YAY it is only a few short weeks away!

10 weeks preggo, August 10, 2008

Holy wow we have 30 weeks to go!!! YAY!!! Well not much this week. Ive had growing pains and i can feel the uterus so good now above my pelvic bone!!! ALSO the other night i was laying in bed hungry and i felt my stomach growl right under my boobs! everything is getting pushed up! YAY! I go to the DR on Tuesday im PRAYING that i get another ultrasound. She will only due an ultrasound if she cant find the heartbeat with the Doppler!!! I PRAY I GET TO SEE THE BABY! and on Thursday or Friday we will get the crib, dresser and changing table yippie!!!!!

9weeks preggo, August 3, 2008

BOY o BOY! I am already in my 9th week...its going by SO FAST! YAY. Well this week my nausea has kicked in double time but still no throwing up! I can now feel my uturs above my pelvic bone...im guessing cause my uturs is measuring 2weeks ahead of what it should cause ive read that, that is supposed to happen at the end of month 3 and i just started month 3. My craving is Arbys!!! It is so good... I cant wait till my appointment in a like 9days...Hopefully she will do an ultrasound. Well after this paycheck we will be able to get the crib,m Dresser and changing table and I am SO excited!!!!! Here I am at 8weeks and 4days!

8 weeks preggo!!! July 27, 2008

Wow this week has actually flown by!!!! Blood pressure was high all week. It was high at the beginning and went down but not to what the DRs wanted, SO on Friday i had to get MORE labs drawn what a shock! Also I had to take a 24hour urine sample, so they could check my kidneys and make sure that is not the problem. Whats going to happen is they will monitor me closer and deliver me a week early. I started to show a little bit but again my uturs is measuring 10weeks right now! Im glad that I am starting to get a bump cause now I have a reason why none of my clothes fit me!!!

Babys Room: We have the rocker and have the money for the Crib, Dresser and changing table.The people we are buying the Crib, Dresser and Changing table from are on Leave and wont be back till August. But i do have pictures and have seen them in person! They are so nice! their daughter has only slept in the Crib 2 times!

7weeks preggo

Well today July 20, 2008, I am 7weeks pregnant. I went to the DR on Tuesday for them to tell me that I was only 6weeks and 4days preggo. The best part was that I got to see the baby's heart beat and my DR told me that when you see the heart beat that early my risk of miscarriage went to from 19% to 3% so i was very relieved!!! I am really sad cause none of my clothes fit me and I dont see a since in buying a pair of maternity jeans so soon cause i am only 7weeks. I cant wait to show and feel the baby and actually feel pregnant! So since I am over weight I had to take a Glucose test at my appt. That was really annoying that drink was YUCK and the guy that took my blood was RUDE. Ive got my blood takin SO much in that past 7weeks! omg! i really think its been 6times. that includes the blood preg test. I just want to look pregnant....

Here is our little bean

WE ARE PREGNANT!!!!

O my gosh! We are finally pregnant! We are so thrilled and thankful. It still needs to sink in! Well today June 23, 2008 was the day of my missed period. It marked the 3rd month of trying. on Sat June 21, 2008 I took a HPT(home pregnancy test) and it was negative! I was SO devastated I just cried all weekend. Come Monday when I had not started I sat there wondering, could it be. I then took my temp and it was higher then normal. So i went to the Dollar Tree and got a test. On the way home I told myself I would not test until the morning. Well that did not last! The second I got home I could not help it! I took it and within 60seconds a faint line showed up! I WAS SHOCKED... I ran into the living room where canon was sleeping and told him. I then called the hospital and got a blood test set up. I went and took my blood test and at 2:26pm the OB nurse called me and told me that I was indeed pregnant! I was about 5weeks and Due Feb 25, 2009.
