April 13 I still haven't made my grand entrance into the world...and
I was due 11 days ago!
Mommy
saw Dr. Sinkhorn
again today. Things still aren't progressing in attempts of my
arriving anytime soon, at least not on my own. He gave mommy the
option of waiting to see if I come on my own, or putting mommy
in the hospital and making me come. I guess mommy is as umcomfortable
as I am, because she opted to be put in the hospital and given
the things needed to make me come!
Mommy
and daddy are going to the hospital on Saturday, April 15th, and
they aren't coming home until they have me in their arms! So I
guess you'll be meeting me soon.
April
3rd Mommy had her 40 week check up today. Still no signs as
far my coming anytime soon, so Dr.
Sinkhorn sent mommy over to labor and delivery for some gel
in hopes of getting things going for my arrival.
After
dinner, and a walk around the block, mommy started having contractions.
After 4 hours of daddy timing her contractions, and the contractions
coming every 2-5 minutes and lasting for 60 seconds, they decided
to go to the hospital to get checked.
The
nurse checked mommy and it turned out the gel helped. Mommy was
1cm dialated and now 50% thinned out. Dr.
Sinkhorn was contacted and his orders were to walk for a few
hours to see if more progress could be made. After 2 hours of
walking and another check by the nurse, there had been no change.
So mommy and daddy were sent home at 4:30am.
I
just wasn't ready to make my grand arrival yet!
March
20th Mommy saw Dr.
Sinkhorn for a 38 week check up today. He says I'm still growing
and that my heartbeat is nice and strong. He says I can come anytime
now.

I am excited to annouce that my friend was born today. Her name
is Emma Faith. You can see how cute she is by visiting my
friends page.
Ever
since her arrival my mommy and daddy are even more anxious for
my arrival. Not too much longer until I make my grand entrance
into the world.

Wow, it is getting kinda cramped in here...it won't be long now.
Since Mommy and Daddy never found out if I was a boy or a girl,
maybe you can help them out.

Mommy is now 36 weeks pregnant. She now goes to see the Doctor
once a week until the big day. Dr.
Sinkhorn told mommy that she's reached the milestone point
and if she was to go into labor now, that he would just let me
make my appearence and he would not try to keep me in here any
longer. I liked the sound of that news 'cuz I'm running out of
room to move around.
February
17th
Another ultrasound appointment...and still no one can tell whether
I'm a boy or a girl.
January
17th
Mommy and Daddy went for my 29 week check-up today. Everything
is checking out just fine. Our nurse practioner said I was upside
down and that I am "head down". But that could change cause I
am still in the stages of doing sommer saults and rolling all
about...but not for too much longer, cause I am getting bigger
and its starting to get kinda cramped in here. Mommy gained another
5 pounds and her tummy grew another 5 cm (2 inches). She goes
back to see the doctor in 3 weeks when he'll order another picture
of me to make sure I am not getting too big.
November
10th
Mommy had an ultrasound today. Daddy and Gramma Dahl got to go
along and see me. They were so excited to know if I was a boy
or a girl, but I had other plans!! I kept my hand between my legs,
so they still don't know if I'm a boy or a girl.
They
got a good look at the rest of me though. They saw my heart, my
kidneys, my tummy, and they even caught me sucking my thumb. You
want to see what I look like check me out here.
September
28th
When I was 13 weeks old, Mommy & Daddy got to hear my heartbeat
for the first time.
Our
Nurse Practitioner said, "I'm thinking blue" at hearing my heart
beat.
August
1st
My parents were excited (and shocked) to learn that they were
expecting their first child, me!
I
don't have a name just yet 'cuz my parents haven't found out if
I'm a boy or a girl. So for now, just call me lil'BabyFras.
I'm
still fairly new to this world, so I don't have much to say about
myself. Come back soon to find out how I'm doing, or if you like
you can send me an e-mail.
