I definitely took a lot more pictures of me pregnant when I was pregnant with Crew, but thought I would document the belly one last time...
This is my belly at 38 weeks. My sister in law Brittany and I went and got pedicures next to my salon, and I had them rub my pressure points really good trying to induce labor, but no luck...
The next day I took a few pics on my phone, just ignore the messy mirror, I probably should have cleaned that before I took the pictures.
I am so excited to meet this little man. We have settled on a name- Kaden Alan.
I love being a Mom and can't wait to have another little boy.
I can't wait to get my body back, I feel like I have been pregnant for two years. This pregnancy was so easy until the end. He hurts me so much more than Crew did. Sciatic, heartburn, and insomnia are my main complaints.
I seriously have the best husband in the whole wide world. He does so much for us. He has been picking up the slack, really to a fault. I wish he would just come home from work and just relax, but he doesn't. He cleans, or cooks, or just takes Crew so I can rest. I am very grateful for all that he does for our family!
I feel like my body is progressing very slow with this baby. I had Crew at 38 weeks. However it was the worst delivery possible. I had two epidurals that didn't work, I was given morphine and lidocaine every hour for 5 hours, pelvis bones never spreading, having a C-section, but as they cut me open I could feel it, so I was put under general anesthesia and was gone fore the next 6 hours. Because I went under general anesthesia, even Jason couldn't be in the room, he was in a room next door where they handed Crew off to the nurses as he came out. So this time around I am just terrified. I am so scared of the unknown. My mind is constantly on how this baby will be delivered, and Jason tells me all the time I am stressing too much. This entire pregnancy I had no intentions of even trying to deliver vaginally. About the last month or so I have just been so curious and wonder if I really can have a baby, this is my only shot. If I deliver this one C Section the rest of our kids will have to be C Sections. I started seeing Dr K every week at 36 weeks. When he checked me at 36 weeks I was not dilating and 50% thinned out. 37 weeks I was still not dilated and 80% thinned out. 38 weeks I was dilated to a 2.5 and 80% thinned out. 39 weeks I was still a 2.5 and 85% thinned out. We had booked my C-Section originally for Friday June 28th. When I met with my Dr yesterday we decided to give my body one more week to see if I will go into labor. I have been having contractions and lots of pressure, but nothing consistent. I rescheduled my C Section for Wednesday, July 3rd. Which is my actual due date. If my body goes into labor before, then we give it a shot to try and have it, otherwise he is getting evicted. So I am really anxious to see how this story ends. In the end, a healthy baby is all that matters. A week from now it will all be a memory, one way or the other.
