I went to the OB’s office to see if Sawyer was still breech because I wasn’t dilated and only having braxton hicks contraction. Since I was a week away from my due date they were curious to see if he was still breech. I was praying to God that he was head down and [...]

Everything is going really well…..KNOCK ON WOOD
A few updates:
I went to a BabyK appointment on Monday and everything went great! He is still very comfy in the breech position…Mommy isn’t too please but the doctors seem to think that he has plenty of time to flip and they aren’t worried at all.
I’ve gained 11 [...]
Trial run
Last Tuesday night I was having some really bad back pain, side pain, and minor contractions. I knew something was really wrong when I had to run to the bathroom to get sick. I hadn’t gotten sick like that since I had my appendix removed. I called my doctor and she said to come up to Winnie Palmer and [...]
New York New York
My Mom and I took a spontaneous trip to NYC in October! It was a blast, minus the fact that “Lindsey” brought short sleeve shirts and light weight sweaters for a week that decided to be rainy and had temperatures that didn’t reach above 50! ha. Just my luck! BUT, overall the trip was awesome and just [...]
The Neti Pot
Since being pregnant I haven’t gotten a head cold yet until Sunday afternoon. Dun duhn duuuun… I knew I didn’t want and couldn’t take most meds due to pregnancy so I tried this Neti Pot thing everyone had been talking about. I was doubting it would work because I was so sick and the function of [...]

22 weeks: Crazy pregnant lady
Just when we thought we had skipped out on the crazy, hormonal pregnant lady side effects they come full throttle. I just never really thought that “the crazy pregnant lady” was real. WELL baby momma’s they are real, VERY REAL! They started hard core last week and haven’t stopped. I have tried several things to get this out [...]
Karate Kid
It was about 10:30pm and I was in bed watching According to Jim while Justin was working on a project in the other room. I had been feeling BabyK practicing his Tae Kwon Do inside of me so I decided to put my hands on my belly to just see if I could actually feel him this time. In [...]
America Runs On Dunkin’
Monday morning, the alarm goes off around 7:15 but I was awake about 7:00. We were on our way to get our first sonogram to find out if we were having a boy or a girl. The night before we talked about how several people we knew had issues finding out what the sex of [...]
Just keep swimming…just keep swimming…
I’ve always wondered what it would be like to feel a baby move inside of me. At the beginning stages of pregnancy I thought it would be just like the end of pregnancy like a punch or a jab..something that would make me want to throw up or run and find a bathroom. Think again…It didn’t feel [...]
“I popped!”
I popped out overnight! My baby belly has finally decided to come out and say hello! I’m 15 weeks with baby K growing and growing and we are feeling great!
The nausea has subsided and I’m starting to feel like myself again, well kind of…
….Those unforgiving, embarrassing, yet needed hormones are really taking a firm grip on this whole pregnancy thing. ha. Think of outburst such as turrets or someone that [...]
