Day 24 of 31 for 21 - Prayers Needed for #10

Had a dr appt today and have my big u/s on Nov 10. The Peri Dr is going to do an echo on little girl. The OB had read the report from the Peri's last u/s when The peri told me she wanted to do an echo, I did not think much about it. The OBGYN said she read her report but did not tell me what was in it.. I have noticed here at home that her heart rate drops and goes very slow at times but after a min or so it come back up. I did not tell the dr about this because I thought maybe it was just me and she was moving away from the doppler. Well today when the dr was listening baby was normal then did her drop and I could see the dr looking at the machine. I told her "it's not just me is it?" she said "what" I said "her heart rate drops and goes really slow" She said that yes it is very slow. I told her to wait a min or so and it would come back up. So she did and the HR returned to normal.

The OBGYN says that she thinks baby girl may have a blockage in her heart. She said there is nothing that they can do till she is born except monitor her very closely and take her at any sign of distress. The good news is that she is the right size so the blood is circulating where it needs to go so she is ok in there. The problems most likely will be after she is born.

My hubby thinks maybe baby girl may also have down syndrome but I am not sure since our NT screen came back fine but we did not do the 16 week AFP screen..

Sorry it is so long but if you could say a little prayer for her and her heart I would really appriciate it.. I will know more after Nov 10th.

Day 22 of 31 for 21 - Yep I missed the post..

Well I have to say I missed posting last night. First off I usually blog at night when the kids are all in bed. It is the only time there is peace in the house. Well not tonight. I missed blogging because of this:





It seems that while Tom and I were cooking dinner Riley was swinging on the swing and Kassi ran in front of her and she swang into her and bounced her into the backyard fence. This was the resulting injury. After visiting the awesome firefighters at Station 45 We went to the ER. An hour later we were on our way home with an RX of Tylenol..

Day 21 of 31 for 21 - A Beautiful Tribute and Uproar!



There is the amazing woman on a website I frequent, who lost her daughter at 18 months to SIDS She has an amazingly peaceful photo of her angel in her siggy. Apparently some people who really have no reason to "Lurk" are causing an uproar. what right do they have to say she cannot have any picture she wants up? It is their choice to look at it or skip over it. If you do not like it then skip her posts or better yet do not lurk where you do not belong! I feel very strongly because these ladies have been there for me when noone else has and I know I can go to them for support ANYTIME.

Well I am posting her Siggy on my blog in protest and support of Amber. Please if you support Amber's right to honor her angel in her Siggy leave a comment....

Day 20 of 31 for 21 - Milestone Monday





Today is called Milestone Monday because after 8 months, My baby boy has learned to sit up! I was giving him a shower, holding him up and Cheryl walked in and without thinking I turned to her. Cheryl look at me and said "Mom I thought he did not know how to sit up." I turned and he was sitting there. He sat through the whole shower. I am so proud. He is getting so big!
