This Post is for you Auntie Lyndee!

As of today we are 35 and 1/2 weeks prego! Things have been nuts around our house the past few weeks. It seems that everytime we go to the doctor we end up in the hospital for the day. The good news is that we love our doctor, his partners and all of the hospital staff we have met thus far. Things got a bit exciting last Monday as the team of doctors were thinking they were going to have to bring Ty Matthew into the world. Well let me tell you Mommy did a lot of crying worried that he was to early daddy did a lot of taking care of mommy like the super hero that he is and Grandma and Grandpa only left the hospital long enough to get us food! Doctors orders he wanted daddy ready for a long night. I don't think I will ever be able to repay my parents for all the help and support they have given us! They have been AMAZING! We were told that the fluids around Ty were very low so our docs started Iv's of fluid and got us rehydrated. My kidneys are also a bit of a concern due to swelling. We had a lot to take in that day. As always Ty gave the nurse a run for her money kicking the machine off. Josh swears that he loves all the attention he gets from the nurses. So after 3 ultrasounds in one day it was decided that the fluids went up and after 8 hours in the hospital we got to go home but my doctor said mom and dad and Josh should take me to BabiesRus and Ty and I should get something for the long day! We did just that! It was fun even though Daddy and Grandma made me ride in a wheel chair. So then we were home to rest and back to the hospital Thursday for more testing. Everything was fine but a 20 min. test took 3 hours because Josh's son (when he is a stinker) would not let them do the tests without kicking the machines off right before the doc came to see us he did let them get the test readings they needed. We then had another ultrasound and that told us the fluids were good. The doc that did the ultrasound said that she thought he weighed 7 pounds already! HOLY COW we are going to have a big baby! Josh and I are so excited! Our babgs are packed, carseat in the car and at anytime we could be coming home with a baby! Josh and I are so thankful for all the support from everyone!! It means a lot to us! So this post is for Auntie Lyndee who LOVES LOVES LOVES to see my HUGE TUMMY! I am not sure how many more tummy shots there will be but here are a few more!





Hope everyone is well!

Almost 34 weeks Doctor Appointment!

We are almost 34 weeks prego and had another doctor appointment today! My blood pressure was a bit high but other than that all is good. I have officially gained 6 pounds. The doctors are very happy with that but still concerned that I need to eat a bit more. I assured them that I eat all the time but it doesnt seem that there is that much room in my tummy these days!

Ty Matthew loves to run from the heartbeat machine and makes the doctor work to catch him and when they do he kicks the machine. It is so funny. Ty is doing great! Josh and I are so excited and can't wait to meet him. We will start having stress tests 2 times a week starting Monday and we are having another ultrasound on Monday as well. They are checking his growth due to the high blood pressure and the chance that he might need to come see us a bit early. The doctor said that Ty should be great even if he comes a bit early. He is estimating that he weighs about 5 lbs but decided that we should still have another ultrasound. So Monday we get to see our little man again. We are so thankful for him! Here are a few pics!

Baby Ty Update!

Hi Everyone!
We have had a bit of excitement lately, last Thursday we had a scare that Ty Matthew was thinking about entering the world a bit to early! As much as we would all like to meet him we were all praying that he would stay safe in Mommy's tummy! Thank the Good Lord that he did just that! The night before our regularly scheduled appointment I was experiencing BAD BAD back and side pain! When we saw our doctor he didn't feel that we should go home without being checked out! So off we went to the baby area and I am thinking oh they are going to run a few tests and an ultrasound! WOW was I in for a shock! They took us to a labor and delivery room at that point I was scared to death! Josh and my mom never left my side but my dad did leave the room quite often as he was not having any part of the tests they had to do! We had AWESOME nurses and doctors who Ty Matthew felt the need to show off for! They were monitoring Ty and He thought it was GREAT to kick the monitors off and get the nurses to go back and forth to put them back on! Josh and I felt bad and would try to fix them before the nurses had to come back! They were laughing at us because we didn't want to bother them! After all of the excitement we found out that Ty Matthew was happy and healthy and he was safe in the tummy! My muscles are very sore was the conclusion and everything is stretching to make room for Ty. Well I felt so so bad for taking up the time of the wonderful hospital staff and panicking! They all assured me that it is normal and better to be safe than sorry!
Today we went back to the doctor for a follow up appointment and it went well. It is safe to say that Ty is safe in the tummy for a bit longer! We are very thankful for that! My blood pressure has gone up a bit! So we had to up the Meds and our AWESOME Doctor has now strongly suggested the Mommy and Ty rest a lot and take it easy! Doctor Daddy is enforcing the Doctor's orders! It is very hard for me to rest and do nothing but we are determined to do what is best for Ty! Just wanted to share the News with everyone! Oh and after having a 4th ultra sound we again had another confirmation that we are having a BOY! :) Hugs from Josh, Linzy and Ty!
