Home Again.

I've got another hemmorrhage and a cold/allergies going on. I've got to be on bed rest again for the next few days. Hopefully I'll still be going to St. Louis this weekend.

Dad is still in the hospital and hopefully will be discharged today.

Movin' Along

Well, I'm starting to feel better during the day but at night it's horrible. I dread when 7:00 pm comes around. If I can get to sleep, it's not as bad but I still have a rough time. I'm 12 weeks along on Monday, so I hope that this will going away very soon. It let up a lot around 14 weeks when I was pregnant with Hayden.

I've been searching on-line and decided that even though Hayden's bedding is perfectly fine, I want new for the baby. Both boys had new and themes and this baby will be getting it too. I've found these at Overstock.com and I like the first two themes for a boy and the last two for a girl. All four are very reasonable on price. As long as I can get the entire theme done for $100 or less is my goal. I never had it with the boys but I would really like to have a glider rocker chair. Those are fantastic!! We'll see.

I'm starting to get excited about finding out if it's a boy or girl. I think we've decided upon a boys name - Colin. For a little girl, not so sure. I think deep down I'd be in shock if it really is a girl. I'm used to having boys. I'd be nice but such a big change. I think sometime the middle of October is when we'll get to find out.

I go on Tuesday to the Perinatologist and I'm nervous. Whatever it shows it won't change the outcome but I still hope it shows the baby is fine. No Downs Syndrome, Spina Bifida or Trisomy defects. Anders is going with me, so I'm very glad. I don't want to go through the scare I had with Hayden. I don't handle the "what-if's" very well. I want to know either good or bad, just give me the actual facts.

Well, I think I'm going to try and sleep some more. The "ick" is here and I don't want to end up laying on the bathroom floor tonight even though the fuzzy mats are fresh and clean.

Go away morning/noon/night sickness

I will be so glad when this stages passes. Yet again the morning/noon/night sickness ruined my day. I had planned to go have fun scrapbooking with my friends. Last night when I went to bed I felt pretty good. This morning was another story. I'll be 10 weeks on Monday based upon my official due date of 3/24 so this should be gone in another few weeks. They say once hit you hit the 2nd. trimester it gets better. I sure hope so.

Yuck!!!

Sad and Lonely

I don't know how women go for weeks on end with bedrest. It's so boring!! Plus being home alone makes a person sad. I keep thinking about how much work is probably hating me for not being there, how is this house going to hold another person, finding another house, can I really do this again, is the heat ever going to end, do we have enough money for one more...on and on. Sometimes being alone with your thoughts isn't a good thing. It also makes me sad that my parents haven't even called to check on me. Whenever one of them isn't feeling good I call to check on them. I guess they figure all is well and there's no need but it would be nice. Oh well....

So today, Hayden is home with me. We've watched Elmo and he's tickled my "piggies" numerous times. This is much better.

He's one funny little guy!! He can jump now. His feet actually leave the ground. We've been jumping everywhere and dancing this morning. I have noticed that he's afraid when he hears the airplanes fly over the house. He'll run to me and hide is face. He knows it's an airplane but he hides until he no longer hears the sound.

Well, he's now said he wants a "nack" aka...snack. It's 11:10 so I guess it's lunch time. He's gotta' get more energy for tickling and jumping.

Home

Well, I've been wrote off from work by my ob/gyn due to a pretty bad bleed that's next to the placenta. I thought for sure the worse had happened but they saw on the ultrasound a strong heartbeat and a growing baby. It already had it's arms and legs and was squirming around.

I'm still really sick and it can hit at anytime of the day or night. I'll be so glad when this passes. Hopefully just a few more weeks and then I'll be in the 2nd. trimester. I was sick this morning and it was so nice to be able to go back to bed instead of dragging myself back to my desk.

So....I'm home with direct orders to rest and get this bleed and morning sickness under control.

Yum-Yum

We all love pancakes here in the Jensen household and I woke up and had to have some. I made them and started feeling pretty sick so I watched my family devour it all while I had a few bites.

Sleepy Boy

Here's my little guy right after he got out of bed. He was still sleepy but holding his lillow, melmo and nunny. Which is blanket, Elmo and bunny.
