I don't believe I have officially posted about our new arrival that is expected to be here in March. I'm not sure if I have to officially post, but for me this is a big step. I'm 19 weeks pregnant now and spent much of the first couple of months on a little emotional rollercoaster. I won't go into much detail, but let's just say this baby really wants to be here. It survived a large blood clot that is still in the process of being absorbed by my body, but for much of the beginning, it was the cause of a lot of bleeding. I take blood thinners now to help prevent any more from trying to cut off blood flow to the pregnancy.
I believe it was around 15 wks I had an ultrasound to check on the clot (or hematoma) and the tech was so great. I still didn't feel a connection with this baby because part of me was trying not to just in case I would lose it. She took a moment to focus in on it's little hand and there it was almost waving at me. She was so excited and expressed how sweet it was and at that moment I realized she was right. It was ok to accecpt this now and have a little more faith. I'm thankful to be as far along as I am because I can feel the little one everyday and the bonding is beginning to take place. The big question I get asked these days, "Are you going to find out what it is?" and the answer to that is, is yes after it is delivered sometime in March....he he he.

I'm glad that you are doing better, Amy. The pictures at the pumpkin patch are so fun! That made me laugh about Cambree. I can just see that poor kid trippin' all over everything. And nice picture of Kelci in jail with her tongue hangin' out. That kid cracks me up!
Congrats! Bryan said you weren't feeling well...but he didn't go into detail! I hope all goes well the next few months. Babies are SUCH a blessing, as you know!
Oh, congratulations, #5! I am excited for you. You do a good job keeping secrets! That was a big surprise! My best friend out here has been suffering similarly to you (also #5) with blood clots, and it sounds so painful. How cute that he/she was waving!
Congratulations, Amy! I'm sorry to hear it was scary for a while, but I'm happy things seem to be looking up!
It's amazing how ultrasounds seem to make the baby more 'real'. Lance seemed to feel that way each time for us.
yeah, another baby! I'm so happy for you. I wanted one more, too, but things have just been crazy
'round here. who knows now!
Congrats!
HOLY COW!!!! I thought you were done at 4. CONGRATULATIONS! Man, I don't check your blog for a few days and all of a sudden you're halfway through a pregnancy. I'm so happy for you that everything is going well for you now and that the little one is okay and healthy. I wish I could be there to help out. My sister is getting married in April so I'll be out that way then and I'll be sure to make time to stop by. I'm so excited for you!
wow, congrats! I did not know you were pregnant!!! :) Taylor was meant to be here, coming so close to Brandon too. Hang in there! You can do it! Pregnancy can be tough. I think we I have a third (not prego now) I will not find out the sex (did you with the others?), since I have one of each already and all the clothes saved.
Congrats. That is exciting. I hope that things go well for you guys. It is good hearing from you. Tell Bryan that we said hi. I am going to add your blog to my list. Take care!
Congrats you guys! What great news. Stay healthy!
Congratulations!! I hope the rest of your pregancy goes better.
