Jackson

Well he is 2 wks old today. Born April 12, 2010 at 9:15 (my daddy's bday also). Born 8lbs 12 oz, 21 3/4 in long and head was 14 1/2 in. Was in labor for 14 hours and had to push for 2hrs 15 min. It went really smooth until my epidural ran out after 2 hrs of pushing so had to push the last 15 min with nothing, which was the worst part. But totally worth it. We took him to the doctor today for his two week check up and already weighs 9lbs 4 oz, 22 1/4 in long and head was 15 in. Doctor said he looked and sounded good, have to go back in two more weeks to get his 2nd hep b shot, which i dread him crying. I also dread going back to work. Wish I was rich so I could stay home with my baby. The first week we were home, I guess I had the blues, cause I would cry at the drop of a hat and doesnt help I didnt sleep the first 3 days we were home, was too worried at every sound he made at night and then I wouldnt sleep during the day due to lots of visitors and I just didn't want to miss anything. But I am totally better now, just took about a week for my hormones to settle down. I will probably ball my eyes out the day I have to go back to work, but Jason will be staying with him, he will be out of school when I go back so hopefully that will work out. Anyways will keep you posted on all the upcoming events of Jackson's life.

The time has come

Well it is almost here!!! Went to the doctor the other day and she looked at my weight gain, blood pressure and my Cankles and said we need to induce you. Woohoo. Probably will be the only time I get excited about these three things. Well she scheduled me to go in on Monday Morning which is by the way my dad's bday. He is so excited about this. And so am I. After I got done at the doctor's office I called all my important people to tell them the good news. Well got my bags packed and about to head to the grocery store to get some groceries and cook later today so we will have some food in the freezer for when we come home. I will let you know if he comes early or makes his debut April 12

getting uncomfortable

Ok so today I am 38 1/2 weeks pregnant. I go to the doctor tomorrow where she will schedule me a time to be induced. I am really hoping she schedules me this week. I am not actually due til April 17 but he really needs to come soon. It has gotten so uncomfortable lately. For example at night I lay on my sides to sleep and wake up every hour with my arms and hands are asleep. Also wake up every hour to go to the bathroom. You should see me trying to get up out of the couch, takes me a few minutes, lol. My belly has gotten so big that the top part under my bra is really raw from my bra rubbing it, yeah I know sexy right. Me and Jason went shopping the other night and walked for like 4 hours, have been walking alot when I get home from work because they say it helps bring on labor but so far nothing. Well hopefully I will get good news tomorrow. Will let you know
