The first "official" Dr's Appt

Well this morning Kyra and I were both getting ready and she asked me where I was going. I told her to my doctors appointment so she BEGGED me to take her with me. I said that was fine because she is so excited and really wants to be a part of the baby process :) 
We got there about 30 minutes early so we went down to the cafeteria and had breakfast (as previously noted the food there is AWESOME) Kyra was again excited to eat her yummy Pancakes with Peanut butter and Jelly (its really good that way!!) We finished up our breakfast and then Checked in. They took me back, weighed me .. I had only gained like 3 pounds (probably due to me EATING LOL) When I got to the room I had a BIG BAG of crap LOL  :P some samples of stuff, some good baby books, some Formula (booo.. I only breastfeed, its ok to call me a  Le Leche League snob LOL) Kyra IMMEDIATELY started reading the materials LOL she's so cute that way! He came in did his exam them said that the ultrasound guy said he say some 


blood near the placenta so He would check on it with his ultrasound. So I got to go to the ultrasound room and see the baby again Kyra was VERY excited to see the baby!! Dr. Said the baby looked good and healthy and AGAIN changed the Due date to January 5th. So I assume this is the FINAL prediction :) 
We left the appointment happy and content :) 
YEAH !!! GO baby go !! 

BTW does anyone else think the baby looks like its SKI JUMPING off my uterus?!?!?!

Book just got here

One of the books I've ordered got here this morning. "Pregnancy Week by Week"  I loved this book when I was prego with Kyra. I feel like I'm skipping a bunch of stuff though .. (I don't need to read 8 pages on STD's...just an FYI..  I DON'T HAVE STD's lol )

I've enjoyed looking at the baby's ultrasound knowing she is in there and she's growing so much

I've been thinking about changing baby's name?? I think I might really like Donna Eden instead of Donna Elizabeth but I don't know .. no one really likes the Donna name... I do though .. choices choices... I don't want the baby's name to be something that everyone else has, and I don't want to make it too difficult for people to read, say and spell .. lord knows I learned that lesson with Kyra ...

I just looked at the office (soon to be baby's room) what the HECK am I gonna do with the stuff in there??
I have to go through all my books and through all my "stuff": Granted I have alot of stuff for work; like books and  educational tools I will eventually put in a "real office" but its here till that happens!
 I just have SO MUCH craft CRAP too!!  I finally had a room for all my "CRAP" now I need to figure out where to MOVE my CRAP... I have  a feeling I'm having a yard sale in a few weeks to get rid of a bunch of stuff I never use! I have alot of kitchen gadgets I don't ever use that I should get rid of to make room for stuff for me to use storage for stuff from the office. I'm sad I'm getting rid of my office desk cause its such a nice big office desk but there's nowhere i can keep it!! Maybe at my moms till I can move in a few years?? LOL :P
Regardless its all worth getting rid of for my little baby!! She is totally worth it ...

Speaking of HER... I've been getting alot of comments about the fact I'm referring to the baby as a "her" there is just one reason for this...
The night I conceived Kyra (before I even KNEW I was pregnant) I had a vision like dream ( you people know the kind of dream I'm talking about) where a girl around 9-10 ish with LONG brown hair with bangs in a purple frilly dress was holding a baby in a pink baby blanket. They were sitting in a rocking chair with a Heart cut out of the back of the chair. I strongly believe this was gods way of showing me my children.  Kyra holding this new baby.
OK so there is My reason take it or leave it .. I know Im having a girl :P no one will convince me otherwise :P

Ultrasound


So here are the pictures of the little baby :) I know its not much but it shows the baby's head and body. there was actually a better closer shot of the baby I don't know why the technician didn't print that one instead but oh well

I went with Charlies mom to get the ultrasound since I was in St George I thought she might enjoy coming to see the baby as well.

The lady that was this technician was MUCH nicer and told me everything she was doing the whole time it was so nice compared to the other woman! She was checking my ovaries and uterus and kidneys i was like wheres the BABY? she said that she saved the best for last, but she then went right to looking at the baby, she did a close up and you could see the baby quite well (I wish she would have printed that shot)

Once you see the baby and hear the heart it makes it so much more REAL, not that it wasn't real before but it just makes it so much more... alive... than before.. So hard to explain. I am more excited than anything now!!

There goes the perfect record

Dang it there goes the perfect no throw up record!  Yesterday I went to my moms house weak as could be and I threw up.  After it was said and done I felt better so my mom thought it was just bad food (I had a Wendy's taco salad YUMMY)  thinking that was all i came home, went to bed, and woke up at 2 am only to throw up in the sink and PASSED OUT.. I woke up on the floor with puke all over. I hit my knee on the sink (it still  HURTS :( my body then went in shock shaking and I felt like i was going to pass out again. Fortunately I had my work phone nearby, I usually leave it in the other room to charge but there was an emergency with a client last night so I was keeping the phone nearby in case they needed me again. So I grabbed the phone and called  911. The paramedics came, and took me to the hospital. I feared that I would pass out and hurt myself even more, my head really hurt and my knee really hurt but the nausea and weakness I felt was just terrible i felt I needed to be checked by a doctor.
Kyra was very sweet and tried to be so helpful the whole time!She covered me with her snuggie to make sure I was warm (I kept getting chills) she made sure she had packed snacks and the Ipods for the hospital. She's going to be such a GOOD big sister!!!
Well readers digest version of what happened is that I have a pretty gnarly UTI and there is a nasty flu going around so either A: the UTI is so bad that it put my body into shock or B: I've got that nasty bug going around. I was given IV antibiotics last knight and came home and died in bed!
I have the ultrasound this afternoon to look forward to! yeah :)

pump pump pump it up

I got the breast pump I ordered the other day (yeah) its nice and has lots of accessories with it. I also visited with the nutritionist today at work she gave me a nice little chart of what should be eating what I should avoid and such it was nice.

Charlie and I are doing good he had to go back to Vernal though :( but I enjoyed having him near me. I can't wait till he gets a job back down here and comes home !! oh well all in due time .
Baby is settling in she turned 6 weeks yesterday and I have some pretty cool apps on my hero that track the baby real well this one pregnancy widget is way cool it actually shows a picture of what the baby looks like its pretty cool :)

Got the heart monitor today!

The day started off sluggish again, I think this morning was the harshest morning sickness yet, but still not vomit! (thank goodness) After picking up my Bountiful Basket at 8AM  I layed all the couch all morning until i fell asleep around 11:30 till I woke up around 1-ish when Charlie came to visit.
Charlie is the baby's father. I am so very confused with our relationship. I wish nothing more than to marry him and have our child together as a family.. but the news of the baby scared him, but I think he is coming around. We talked and we think we will try to get back together again I truly hope we do! As I do love him very much.
So charlie Helped me take Kyras old bed out (it broke) and put in her new bed since I'm the pregnant lady that cant lift over 15 pounds!
I also received the Baby heart monitor today :) Baby Sound B Fetal Doppler Monitor w/ Ultrasound Gel 
I cant use it for 2 more weeks though :( some people say they can read the heart beat at 8 weeks some not until 12 :( I will certainly try to start listening at 8 weeks though :)
I cant wait until I can hear my baby's heart !! Patience is a virtue !!
