Everything is measuring perfectly!! I'm sooo excited, as I was VERY worried that something would be terribly wrong with the baby. "lil valentine" weighs in at approximately 12 ounces, which is right on target! I didn't ask how long it was (OHHH how I really don't like the "it" word LOL). We did learn that lil one has already developed it's personality!! It is already sucking its thumb, and is very cute! but I'm concerned with breaking the habit, for the record, neither of my other 2 ever sucked their thumbs!! It is a lil wiggle worm too, as I had already told my hubby it LOVES to rock and roll!! always moving, I guess it's dancing, who knows!!<br /><br />now for my usual weekly thing, that I havent' done in a few weeks!<br /><br />How far along? 21 weeks<br /><br />Total weight gain/loss: +4 (this is a total)<br /><br />Maternity clothes? yes!! and boy are they comfy!<br /><br />Sleep: it's ok for now<br /><br />Best moment this week: today's ultrasound!!<br /><br />Movement: yes! all the time!!<br /><br />Food cravings: no cravings<br /><br />Gender: it will be a surprise<br /><br />Labor Signs: not at all<br /><br />Belly Button in or out?

When we went to the dr. the test came up negative, but that Sat. (the day we buried Jamie's cousin) I got a positive on a PG test!<br /><br />My children went with me to the dr. on Friday and heard the heartbeat and that is how they found out! We told my parents today, I had each of them a cake made, (they are no longer married to each other), on the lil cake in the middle it said "AGAIN" and I had lil baby booties put on the cupcakes around it, and made them figure it out! They were as excited as we are! <br /><br />God has been so GOOD to us! I have been very careful and cautious and we had a scare a few weeks ago, but had ultrasound and everything is GREAT!<br /><br />Now to do the little weekly thing that I like to keep for records..<br /><br /><br />11 WEEKS:<br /> <br />How far along? 11 weeks<br /><br />Total weight gain/loss: 0<br /><br />Maternity clothes? not yet, but it won't be long<br /><br />Sleep: Always tired. Sleeping any time I can.

I always give bad news first, so here it goes..<br />Jace (my hubby's cousin that was in an accident) passed away Tuesday, on his 23rd birtday. It is probably the greatest gift anyone can receive, to be sitting in Heaven with the GREATEST person EVER!! His services are this weekend, if you can please say a lil prayer for us, we have been spending loads of time with his parents and his sister.<br /><br />My appt. was on wednesday. Well, I just KNEW that he would do an HSG test to ensure that my tubes are open, and he said, "Leigh, your tubes should be fine, as you did conceive the 1st month after your surgery". I guess he knows what he is talking about since he is the doc. He put me on Clomid. I take 50 mg a day on days 5-9 and will do this for 6 months. then after 6 months if we don't get pg, then he will do a HSG test.<br /><br />I just wanted to fill all of ya in! <br /><br /><br />Hope ya have a Great Week!!<br />LeighLeighhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01375534307827208876noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520100112429754316.post-33046935931730451172010-06-06T12:01:00.000-07:002010-06-06T12:12:16.110-07:00need some powerful prayersJamie's cousin was in a horrific accident...<br /><br />The story is this...<br />He stayed 6 hours with his grandmother yesterday and then helped a friend of his move yesterday afternoon. He called his mom to tell her where he was at, which was less than 2 miles from the house. The security guard said he did not come to a complete stop at the stop sign, then took the left, then watched as jace drove into the lake without braking.<br /><br />The security guard could not help, because he has a cast on his arm, but the authorities where there in 10 minutes. Unfortunately, 40 minutes went by before they were able to get a heartbeat. As of right now, he is on life support, and then family is going to leave him on it for 48 hours to see if anything improves. There is no activity in the brain stem, so that is a terrible thing.<br /><br />This family lives adjacent to the lake that the wreck happened in, so they will be able to see this daily, and think of this terrible accident.<br /><br />This is a deja vu for the family, because the mother of this boy lost her brother in a car wreck 26 years ago... Jace would be 23 this coming up Tuesday.. they were gonna celebrate his birthday today, the cake is sitting on the table of their kitchen.<br /><br />Please remember this family. I konw prayer is very powerful, please lift this family in prayers.<br /><br />Thanks<br />Have a Great Week,<br /><br />LeighLeighhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01375534307827208876noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520100112429754316.post-6166023522693285032010-05-27T11:34:00.000-07:002010-05-27T11:38:34.616-07:00SHAME ON ME!Not only did I miss Tuesday from walking but Wednesday as well!!!

Let alone the fact that I had to have my lil man at an end of school year party, and then to watch the finale of the Biggest Loser. with NO treadmill... GRRRR... but it's ok, it was a choice that I made and I will survive :) I have done really well the last couple of weeks and am making great progress.. the number on the scale is coming down...<br /><br />I hope you all have a GREAT day!<br /><br />LeighLeighhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01375534307827208876noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520100112429754316.post-9769735633477756352010-05-24T17:49:00.000-07:002010-05-24T17:52:22.747-07:00What a surprise..
