BABY UPDATE

Okay, so it's been a couple of weeks since I've posted anything, but nothing has really happened. The latest news on baby: I went to the doctor this morning and have been concerned about the growth of the baby, that was all put to rest by the doctor. I haven't gained hardly any weight and just needed to be reassured that everything is still well, and actually, I lost another 6 oz! Go figure...all of my blood tests and such are all coming back clean and perfect. I feel like I've had the most boring pregnancy thus far. No complaints though, we don't want to jinx anything! :)

Aside from baby news, we're going on vacation (just a weekend deal) to San Diego next weekend. I'm very excited, my sister and her boy toy are going as well. They're going to Sea World and we're going to the San Diego Zoo!!!! plus the beach of course, that's a given. This is going to be our last trip before that baby's born, so hopefully it'll be a blast.

We are having....A BABY BOY!!!!!!!

We'll be welcoming him into the world soon. We're very excited. So far, at 24 weeks, he weighs 1.3 lbs and his big ol' feet came in at a whopping 1 1/2 inches!!! His mommy and daddy are really getting anxious, we love you Aidan Matthew Faragher!!!!

well, i thought i'd be just like brookesie and finally post something new too! i want to be just like her!! lol so, pretty much nothing's new. i know, boring. i'm still pregnant, of course that's a good thing. matt's already started working on the baby's crib and bedroom furniture, all he's got to do is prime and paint and then move everything in. i finished school on the 12th, what a relief! i was starting to get tired of getting up so dang early in the morning 3 days a week. :) i was supposed to start my externship in june and have all my class and hours finished by december, but that's not going to happen. i talked it over with my professors and also with matt and the best thing for me right now is to stay home until november and take care of the baby rather than overwhelming myself with 300 hours of free labor, two night classes, and a newborn. so, i'm fine with it now. my professors said that i can still "graduate" with the girls i've been with for the last 2 years and graduate with the school in may. so, that's the excitement of my life in a nutshell. also, no baby updates as of yet, i go to the doctor again tomorrow and then for another ultrasound in a week. maybe the next time i post, we'll know what we're having!!! (if he/she cooperates that is)

The last few days...

The last few days have been a little uneasy, to say the least. Yesterday I had to leave class early because I felt so lightheaded and like I was literally going to fall over and pass out. It got pretty warm out and I think that had some to do with my odd feelings. Anywho, then today I was on my way to my doctor's appointment and this old guy pulls out of a parking lot right in front of my car and side swipes my bumper!!! HELLO, PREGNANT! Besides that, he never even stopped! Luckily my mom was in the car with me and called 911. Of course because I didn't stop at the scene (and neither did the old guy) the police couldn't formally do anything for me. Apparently, I've got to find a sub station and file my own report. We all know, nothing's ever gonna come of this. Then, once I made it to the doctor, I find out that I've lost another pound totaling 7 lbs since the start of my pregnancy. On top of this, my blood pressure has been running on the lower side, and my doctor said it's good for now, but if it gets any lower that we're gonna have to do something about it. (not sure what, but i don't want to find out) On a positive note, that baby's heart rate is perfect!

Very important findings

These are the most recent ultrasound pictures of our baby!!! (If you couldn't tell) I'm not too savvy so I took pictures of the pictures which is why they may be a bit grainy. We had a very good day at the ultrasound this morning. Matt finally made it into the room with me to see his baby's heart beat and all the bones and squirmy movements (after we had to shake him up a bit), very exciting. Yes, the baby was fast asleep at 9:30 this morning and curled up into a tight little ball. Once the ultrasound started and the tech realized that we weren't going to get much if the baby didn't start moving around, she started poking at him and shaking my belly till she startled him and made him start swimming. :P Our ultimate goal was to find out the sex of the baby, which wasn't 100% confirmed today due to the cord being between the legs as well as any other important parts. We're not rushing out to buy bedding or anything just yet, but the tech said she's pretty sure....it's a BOY!!!
