OBGYN Check up 25 Weeks

Well I went to my OBGYN Apt today and everything went GREAT! Asked the Dr. a lot of questions this time.. My Placentia is where it should be now which is a sigh of relief I was pretty worried about that and then the fluid behind her head is perfect nothing to be concerned about. Everything looks great over all at this time.
The Dr. was trying to listen to her heart today and she was not having it.. it was pretty funny she kicked the Dr. :) Thats daddy's little additude girl. haha! She was all active the Dr could not believe it. But she finally was able to get it, and sounded good.
My next appointment is in a month, normally they start doing every 3 weeks right about now but since everything is looking so good they are okay with going monthly still for now.

I also had my Glucose Test done.. that stuff isn't so bad, the only thing that was a little hard was getting it down within 5 minutes. And then having to sit there for an hour.. I was pretty lucky that the lab was not too busy so didnt' have to deal with annoying people. So all in all it was good.

Work layed me off

Well Wed. Jeff came into work and said that they are going to have to let me go.. Friday will be my last day.
I was speechless.. Didn't know what to say, I had a feeling it was coming because we have been so slow but I didn't think it was going to happen this fast and how he delivered it to me was so hurtful. I have been working for this company for almost 3 years and to give me a 2 day notice just to me wasn't right.
So yesterday (Thursday) he came up to me and apologized for his delivery of telling me. Well I found out Kay the other owner had lit into him a little about how he handled the situation and it was nice to hear that I was not the only one that thought it was pretty rude.. So he apologized, so that made me feel a little better but still doesn't change the fact of only giving me a 2 day notice.
Well on Wed. Ben was able to get some information for me as far as unemployment and disability with being pregnant. I thought I was going to get screwed on disability because they let me go.. but we found out that I am going to be able to get both still.. so I am really happy to hear that. :) Every little bit will help, because there is no way with the economy and being pregnant that someone is going to hire me right now.
We when I get off today I will be applying for my unemployment.

I am actually pretty excited to be getting to stay at home.. this is what I really wanted overall to be able to stay home with my daughter. We will see how long I am able to collect the unemployment and how long I will actually be able to stay home for before I need to start getting another job.. not sure what I am going to do about another job but I am not going to stress or think about it now because there is enough going on right now and not going to go there.. :)
I am going to be able to get the rest of her bedroom ready and then I am going to be a scrap booking fool because I am going to ketch up on the past stuff.. have to do the wedding album, honeymoon and get one started for Paige too. Excited. It is going to take a while to get it all done but I am determined to do it now that I can.

Well I hope everyone has a good weekend and I will definitely be writing more on my blog with not working.
Oh yeah.. Thank you everyone for the support this week it has been a little rough for me especially with being pregnant and all the up and down emotions.

25 Weeks Along

Well I am 25 weeks today. It is crazy how fast it is going by. I have been doing ok overall I think, I have been having some back and leg pain but have been going to the Chiropractor which has been helping a lot. I am starting to not sleep very good which sucks, cannot get comforatable and then I am exausted by the end of the day. I have been kind of spoiled lately with Ben being off weekdays he makes dinner and then I usually hang out with my parents on the weekends so then my mom makes dinner and I am only having to help a little which is really nice. Especially with having to energy because of not sleeping.
 I know I should be exercizing but I just do not have time with working and now no energy.. sucks. Cannot attend any classes such as yoga because I am at work when they are held or they are late at night and just don't want to go real late.. So I am just trying to walk on the weekends so at least it is something.

I am having the glucose test done on Monday, not really looking forward to this, I have heard that it is nasty. We will see.

Rough Day Yesterday

Well yesterday was a really rough day for me.. My baby girl made me feel horrible all day. She was re-arranging my stomach all day and had pain all over.. my back,sides, stomach, lower areas etc.. it was horrible.
It was all I could do to stay at work all day. I got home and layed down and then ate dinner and then back to laying down.. sucked.

But today I am feeling so much better.. It is crazy after having a rough day that the next day normally you feel 100%.. and like a new you. It is still early so don't want to jinks myself but doing good so far..
She is moving around like crazy so hopefully she did her construction of my stomach all yesterday and now she has more room to move around and that is why she is so active today. lol!
So glad it is Friday.. Hope everyone has a good weekend.

24 Week Ultrasound

Here is the ultrasound from Monday.. it went really well. It is still a Girl, thank goodness. I have been buying all girl stuff. The ultrasound tech tried to get a picture of her face but she was not having it. She was keeping her head facing down and then when she would face up she would cover her face. Brat! But it was pretty funny towards the end of the ultrasound she was making these "fish type mouth openings" and the tech said "oh she is swallowing and then said wait.. she has hiccups" she went down to her tummy and you could see it going in and out it was pretty funny and cool to see. I couldn't feel it, but i am sure i will be able to soon.
Left picture is her spine then next to that is her foot then down below left one is her head and then her foot and hand.

23 Weeks

Well I am officially 23 weeks now only 17 weeks to go I cannot believe how fast it has flown by. I am doing pretty good overall I think. Having some pain this morning so not having a great morning but I will get through it. Havent had to really deal with anything bad so I can get past this pain. I know that from here on out I can start experiancing some Braxton Hicks contractions so that will be interesting to feel when/if I do... to get me ready for labor. (Which I am not looking forward too because I hate being in pain. Everytime I bring it up Ben says "This will be interesting and laughs." he means it in a funny way...
23 week belly.. :)

I have to share with you this last Monday Ben put his head on my belly because he wanted to hear her. So he was listening and then talking to her and then all of the sudden she hit/kicked his ear it was the funniest thing ever. I was laughing so hard it was hurting. Just had to add this on there because it was so cute.

Dr's. Apt. 21 Weeks

Here is what has been going on this week: Monday -
Had my Dr's Apt and everything went really good. The OBGYN said that I look good and the baby seems to be growing fine and in the right place. She is right at my belly button now. Got to hear her heartbeat which is always cool. I have gained 4 pounds since my last appointment a month ago. Now weight 112. (The most I have ever weighted, lol!)
I have my scheduled ultrasound in 2 weeks to make sure everything is looking okay and all on schedule. Ben and my Mom will both be there so they will get to see the little girl. Love getting ultrasounds done. :) They are also going to do my glucose to make sure everything is okay.
She has been so active that I am excited to see what she is doing in there and how she is laying, I have been guessing on how she is sitting all the time, pretty funny. She is preferring my right side for some reason so it will be rock hard over there and totally squishy on my left.. lol!
Tuesday -
Had a pretty good day. Cannot complain.
Wednesday -
I had a really rough night, she was all over the place keeping me up and then at midnight I got this huge pain on my right hand side by my belly button and was not sure what the heck it was. I started to message it because was not sure what else to do then all of the sudden she kicked or hit my hand exactly where I had it so she was doing something in there and hurting me.. sheesh!

Getting everything ready to go camping this weekend, cannot to get away for the weekend for a mini vacation. This is Ben's last weekend off so I am sad about that, but going to try to make the best out of this weekend.. Hate these schedule changes.

I think that is it for now.. I will try to post another belly picture and pictures from the weekend too on Monday. Hope everyone has a good weekend.
