Haven Videos

Like I said, these are SUPER tame to what she is capable of! You should have seen her today when I was laying down with Venily for her nap! She was INSANE!!!! I was wishing so badly that I had my camera! Venily thought it was hilarious and kept playing with her feet and Haven kept kicking right back! :)

28 weeks!!!

My 28 week pics...



At 28 weeks...

* I am at 134 lbs (+ 14 lbs total gain) (I had gained 13 with Venily at this point, so I am staying pretty consistent)
* I have been having quite a few BH contractions every day
* I just started up with getting leg cramps at night/ when I wake up in the morning. It has happened 3 times this past week. I had the same thing with Venily. I am positive that the pain is worse that child birth!
* Still obsessed with cleaning and organizing!
* Haven is CRAZY, CRAZY, CRAZY!! Moves CONSTANTLY!! Sticks her feet out with such force that I am afraid how much strength she will get within the next 12 weeks! Loves to kick my ribs too!
* People say things to me all the time now about being pregnant. I love the women that come up to me like I'm some kind of celebrity or something and are just so excited for me even though they don't even know me, lol! I also like that where ever I go everyone seems to be talking about pregnancies and babies. Like when I go to the beach (I've been wearing a bikini this pregnancy b/c I don't really care if people like it or not, haha!) and as we walk past people I get a lot of looks and people start talking about what they wore to the beach when they were pregnant, pregnancy in general, baby showers, etc. I'm like... hmmmm.... wonder what made you think to talk about that, haha!


Haven't updated about Venily in a while. Still doing AMAZING with going on the potty and has had VERY few accidents the whole time she has been potty training (which is over 4 weeks now!). Today we were at a junk yard and she had to go and I BEGGED her to go in the grass, lol. I even took off her underwear and pants and sat her on the ground and told her to go a couple of times, but she absolutely refused! We ended up having to go in some gross porta-potty! She kept saying things like "No pee grass Mommy, pee potty!" haha. I am looking now for a portable one that I can keep in the van that is just open to the ground so that she can go outside if necessary!

Jason is gone now until Sunday (though he will probably be coming back a few hours here and there) but we miss him so much already! He is doing sound for a festival and they got him a hotel room down there. We might go visit him for a day or 2, but we are pretty busy the next couple of days, so I don't think that would work out! Venily hates going any period of time without seeing her Daddy (every car she hears or noise around the house she asks "Daddy here?"), so it is going to be hard especially since I miss him too! :(

July 31, 2007 (28 weeks, 5 days pregnant w/Venily)

Venily keeps getting the hiccups all morning today! Lol, the poor dear! This is the first time that I've actually felt them and KNOWN that that's what was going on. There's been a few times when I thought that she had them, but it didn't last very long or anything, but as soon as I woke up this morning she had them for like 20 minutes straight and now she keeps getting them off and on all day! I don't know if there is anything cuter than imagining her with tiny baby hiccups, lol, that's about as cute as it gets! :)

July 30, 2007 (28 weeks, 4 days pregnant w/Venily)

Today marks 200 days of being pregnant with only 80 more to go!!!! I'm so excited!! And can you believe that it's almost August already?! It seems like we just found out that we were pregnant and I was so excited when she was only an inch big and now she's gigantic and almost ready to come out!! AND only 6 more days until our baby shower, I can't wait, it's going to be so much fun!! I really hope the weather is nice! :)

July 28, 2007 (28 weeks, 2 days pregnant w/ Venily)

My appointment with my new doctor yesterday went good. We definitely like him more than our last doctor. He's really down to earth and nice and actually has some sort of personality and he's not really creepy, so that's good! Everything is looking great too, so I'm relieved! My glucose test came back good, I was only at 112 so no problems there and my iron levels and stuff came back even better than the last time I had my blood tested, so I'm not anemic! The baby's heartbeat was at 144bpm and she's measuring good too, even though I've only gained 1 pound in the last 5 weeks. I've been so worried about that, but the doctor said that it was fine as long as it doesn't continue happening too often. He said that the baby gets everything that she needs first, so she'll be fine no matter what, but I only get what's left over so my health might suffer if I'm not eating enough. That's probably why I was getting really tired and dizzy those few days, I was expending more energy than I was consuming, but I'm doing good with that now. He also said that there is now a big change by doctors to have women gain the minimum number of pounds required rather than going too far over because it's better for the baby and mom, leads to fewer complications, and the mom can bounce back faster after birth, so that's good! My last doctor told me something similar and said that I should gain 20-30 pounds and I've gained 13 so far, so I'm right on track. My next appointment will be in a month, on August 27th and after that I start going for my appointments every 2 weeks!

Well, I have another doctor's appointment tomorrow (hopefully for real this time!)! I decided to go back to the Family Care doctor that I saw and liked. I also scheduled an appointment w/ another OB, but he couldn't get me in until August 9th and there was a possibility that I wouldn't be able to deliver at Aurora (he has his own practice and delivers at Aurora and Kenosha Medical) so I'll be cancelling that appointment unless I change my mind about the doctor I'm seeing tomorrow! It's been such a hassle switching, I'll know better next time around to start off at a good hospital w/ a doctor I like!

On another exciting note, my MIL just gave us a TON of great stuff for our baby that she had in storage! We got a swing, a smaller travel swing, a baby bath tub, and lots of toys, blankets, crib sheets and things!! It's so exciting, I love having all of this baby stuff in my house! I went to buy our travel system the other day, though, and it's being discontinued and is really hard to find so I'm probably going to have to order it on line unless I want to go with a different one. Same with the Amy Coe collection that I want for the nursery at Target. I sure know how to pick stuff, lol! It's alright though. I'm confident that I'll get everything I need in time and that it's going to be adorable no matter what!

Oh and I'm 28 weeks today and this is what my baby looks like! She's getting so big and is so strong now!
