Sweet new baby!



Finally she is here! Morgan Ally Reed popped out at 10:30 p.m on Thursday Oct. 16th 2008. She weighed 8lbs. 6oz. and was 19 1/2 inches longer. The delivery was great (as great as they can be once the epidural kicked in) and she is healthy and is going to be a real eater. It is such a relief to no longer be pregnant. Horray!

Help is on the way!!!!!!!!

I went to the Dr this morning. I am dialated to a 4 and have lots of contractions but she is just not ready to come yet, I guess. So, I have a Dr appt Thur morning. If I do not have this baby before then I will get induced. I love planned things!! The 16 is a nice day for a birthday. Although I am having a good contraction right now so maybe the 14th is a good day too. My parents are leaving SLC tomorrow to drive up here. Then next week Whit and Nags and maybe Matt are coming. It will all be so fun. It is wierd to know that by Thur night I will be holding my new baby. I will post again soon.

NOT YET!!! Someone help me!!!

Ok, so I feel asleep yesterday (for a nap) and when I got up.... no contractions. They had been 10 min apart for 2 hours. COME ON!!! So I am not at the hospital yet. I have a DR appt tomorrow morning. So we shall see. Could this belly get any bigger. I think no. I will update again later.

Quick note

This is just a quick note to say that I am debating on wether to go to the hospital or not. I have been having pretty regular contractions since about 7:30 this morning. I would rather wait at home then go in and have them say it's false or go home you woose. I am thinking it is real but we will see. If I don't post again for 2-3 days you will know that I am actually in the hospital. I have been tricked by these contractions 3 times before so I don't know what to think. Soon we will see. P.S. Maybe I won't be as chubby tomorrow.

SOON!

I am just putting in a quick update. I can barely walk today. I think I have razor blades inserted in various places in my body. I don't know if I am in labor or not because I don't know what that feels like. The other 2 kids were induced so it's like going through this for the first time again. I have a Dr appt tomorrow morning. I don't know if I will make it that long. I did think I was in labor yesterday after the Dr treated me really really bad, but everything tapered off after 10 or 12 hours. Now today I am having more contractions but they are pretty mild. I guess it's the timing that matters and not the intensity. Who the heck knows. I will update again soon.

Ok then!!! People are saying I need to update my blog. I am just not in the mood and I will show you why. (view picture) Today (Sunday the 5th) I am having oodles of contractions. They are not hard enough nor consistant but this can not last much longer. My belly is just to big and beautiful. I think that this is the week. If I am still pregnant next Sunday, so help me can I borrow a knitting hook. But anyway, things really are going great. Lauren and Landon are both in gymnastics. This week will be Landon's first week and I am so excited to see him do it. Lauren is also playing soccer and she is some kind of fireball. She is playing on a team of 6-8 year olds and she is by far tiny compared to the others but is not once bit scared. She will take anyone one. (Is anyone surprised by that??) It has been so fun watching them loving the things they get to do. I am such a soccer/gym mom now. I was surprised to hear this week at the DR that this baby, who is still nameless, is weighing almost 8 lbs. She will be my biggest yet. Hopefully I remain intact in the delivery. So that's about it then. Tim's work is going well but to busy for my liking. I am excited to have family visiting after this darn chubby baby comes out. We miss everyone and sometimes hope that you all have a really crappy time at Bear Lake so that we don't feel as sad about not being there.:-) Don't worry about the insane number of stretch marks, I will never, never wear a 2 piece again in my life.
