Updates On The Baby

So right now I ultimately feel like shyte! Like I don’t already feel like crap enough through the day, the glucose test really threw me for a doozey. So. I’m posting this update on the baby and laying down before James rips the computer out of my hands and forces me to lay down lol. 

Well the baby is healthy. Good =) 

My cervix in not dilated. Good =) 

But my cervix is shorter than it should be, and also thinner than it should be. So pretty much I’ve begun effacing almost two months earlier than they’d like to see. 

But this is okay because we all expected I’d have him early. We just don’t want to have him this early. 

Apparently the baby is putting more pressure than they would like to see on my cervix and they think that may be some of the reason I’m showing signs of premature labor. Not to mention my gingivitis is getting super bad (and looks horrible might I add?) and gum disease is connected to premature labor. 

So he ordered some special tests to make sure there are no under lying infections and to test if I’m at risk of giving birth in the next two weeks. Of course if I did there’s a superb chance that he’d survive, but still 31 weeks is a bit too early for anyone’s comfort. 

I’ve also been order to stay in bed more. Not been put on bed rest yet, pretty much all of the rules James set for me yesterday the doctor set for me today (man James called it didn’t he? Lol) Only difference is now I’m kind of prohibited from any type of physical activity besides what it takes me to get around the house and James is going to be forcing me to lay in bed most of the day. 

Which sucks, but well it’s worth it =) Doesn’t mean I won’t complain though. So be prepared for me to complain because I am not good at doing nothing all day. 

So. This means I get to spend some quality time with my Sims3 game =) Might as well make the best of what I’ve got. Also might as well play the hell out of the game since we all know when the baby is born my Sims 3 playing days are over. XD 

But yes that’s it. More tests next week. And instead of being seen every three weeks it will now be once a week. We’ll get an exact measurement of my cervix on Tuesday and then we’ll go from there. 

Don’t expect me to be very up to doing much of anything unless you’re coming over my house though peeps because not only do I predict I won’t feel up to it once I get a little further along, I’m pretty sure James won’t allow it XD So main way to contact me will be via text and facebook. I’ll update everything about the baby on here as we get more information about him this way I don’t have to tell the same story a bajillion times because I’ve already had like four people ask me what’s going on and I’ve already had to tell it twice. So if you want to know about the baby and I know you have internet I will direct you to my notes lol 

Until next time everyone =)

Lullaby For My Little One

Heaven's gift to me just the way you are, 
A new aged child from a distant star. 
It feels so good just to be 
So close to your love. You are heaven's gift to me. 

You are so sweet and pure just the way you are. 
Mama's precious jewel. Daddy's rising star. 
There's so much in life for you to see. 
And so much to be. You are Heaven's gift to me. 

La la la la la la, la la la la la, 
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la, 
La la la la la, la la la la, 
La la la la la, la la la la la la la 

Heaven's gift to me just the way you are, 
A new aged child always in my heart. 
There's so much in life for you to be, 
And so much to see. You are heaven's gift to me. 

La la la la la la, la la la la la, 
La la la la la, la la la la la, 
La la la la la la, la la la la la, 
La la la la la, la la la la la la la. 

La la la la la la, la la la la la, 
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la, 
There's so much in life for you to see, 
And so much to be. You are heaven's gift to me.

Beautiful song. Ignor the fact that it's called "Wiccan Lullaby" as you can tell by the lyrics it's more Christian than Wiccan, I just LOVE this song. I used to dedicate it to the babies I lost, and I still do, but it's nice to have a living child that I can dedicate it to as well because this is how I feel about him. I never thought I'd be able to have children so the fact that he is here and actually made it to the third trimester just brings tears to my eyes, especially when I listen to this song. He's truly heaven's gift to me.
