I can't believe in less then two weeks I will finally be able to look into your eyes! I can't wait to hold you in my arms and feel all of those squigally dance moves you've been doing!
I am not looking forward to the c-section but I know that no matter what - you my little miracle were meant to be :) I promise never to take your little life for granted. The Lord gave you to me, chose me to be your mother with careful decision. I am being entrusted with the most joyful and blessed job.
And we can not wait to find out if you are going to be a little boy or a little girl! It is so exciting!

Little One! You are almost here! We have less than 4 weeks until your scheduled arrival! I just started maternity leave and am praying you sit tight until your scheduled arrival so that Daddy and I can get a lot done around the house. Your brother is so excited to see if he'll have a brother or a sister - we can't wait to find out!
I am finishing up your baby blanket - all white. In a weird way its like I'll be wrapping you in the angelic comfort of your sister or brother who never got to come home with us. But I know part of him/her is part of you and watches over us like a guardian angel. I hope in some way from my hands, our angel baby's inspiration, and your presence will make your birth be a complete feeling for us all. A simple blanket that will bind us together as a family.

I am feeling you moving so much these days :) I am so very excited to have been blessed with your thriving life inside of mine. I can not wait meet you Little One. To see your face, know your sex and give you a name... To watch you with your big brother who is already so looking forward to your presence in his life, our family.
I continue to pray everything goes very well. That all continues to go well until your expected arrival date of March 9th. Little One I hope and pray you can feel all of the love we already have for you. It is so true that you are such a joy to us and amaze me so much more each day!

I had a dream that I am interpreting as good. I dreamt our baby was a little boy, and he was born early.. in October (I am not due until March). Which I was one bedrest with my son to prevent an early labor with him. But this baby didn't quite seem like a newborn. He was beautiful and kind of looked like my cousin's little boy. I even felt the recovery of the c-section. And another weird thing was that I was at my aunt's with the baby. Seemed kind of odd. I am wondering if the baby is a boy and if he will come early??? I am trying not to freak about worrying about losing the baby next month... I woke up just excited to have had the dream b/c I never had a dream like that with my son.
Praying this is all a good sign!

Today we saw our precious LO fluttering around! It was amazing :) We feel so blessed to be the parents of this little miracle.
We were amazed by your little arms and legs and the cushioning way in which you lay :) Daddy and I were talking about how your will be our little laid back baby - unlike your brother - lol I pray you keep growing and get to come home with us LO.
Now its just the stress of waiting to see if the test results come back okay... God has already provided us this miracle - we know he can do great things!

We went to our 10 wk 4 day appt on August 22nd. HB looked great, OB gave us some pictures. We didn't expect that so it was some kind of wonderful confirmation. This Wednesday we go for our Scan to make sure LO is healthy. We really are doing it just as another confirmation that LO is alive and growing well. I still can't shake being scared... Ugh... hopefully as time goes it will get better. We are desperately trying to wait to tell everyone until 14 weeks. But it is getting more difficult each day.

On Friday morning at 1:30 am I had some light spotting. It then seemed to turn thick and brown and almost stop by 8 am. I call the on-call OB who told me to go to the ER b/c regardless I have to get Rhogam shot.
I will admit.... I gave up hope. All I kept thinking is "why is this happening to me again?" I cried. I refused to look at the ultrasound while the tech was doing it. She then said "there's the heartbeat." My little miracle was moving and had a beating heart. I couldn't believe it. I was stunned. My miracle measured 9 wk and 1 day exactly - exactly as she/he should. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I burst into joyful tears and hugged my husband who I know was feeling as relieved as me.
They gave me the diagnosis of a Threatened Miscarriage. Which from what I am told is what they give to every pregnant women who has bleeding. I am just taking it easy and praying this was the case. The nurse at my OB office said it can be from so many things but as long as it is brown blood it means its old. It could be that my body had tried to produce a period after pregnancy, from exercise - which I haven't done, but I have been doing yard work, digging in the garage, cleaning and lifting heavy baskets of laundry. I am hoping that it was just a fluke thing and we will not have any more spotting/bleeding occur. God id Great :)

I am so worried all of the time. I spend every morning in bed praying to the Lord that you my little one are growing healthy and strong. I keep feeling myself up making sure I still have pregnancy symptoms. I am so anxious. I am just trying to count day by day and be grateful for each day. Our appointment still seems so far away. And I often question at what point I will be able to believe this is real. Is it 9 weeks since that when the baby stopped growing? Is it 10 weeks b/c that is when the placenta takes over? Is it 12 weeks? Or 14 when I am beginning my second trimester? I don't know. I am just praying each day that you stick and grow my little love!
