First Appt. with the Doctor!




Who knew Doctor appointments would be so great! Doctor Heath is wonderful. Probably the best one I have ever met...and I have seen my fair share of Doctor's. He retired from the Navy and just recently moved to Cedar City. Which I am so happy about. I was able to hear the heart beat, and see a picture of our baby. We did an ultrasound and found out that we now have just one baby. I know, some people were hoping for more than one...except for me...I really just want one at a time. I couldn't stop crying when I saw our baby. It was kind of surreal. The Doctor confirmed that we are about 10 weeks, and he said that everthing looks great. The placenta is in the wrong place right now, but he said it should move the more time goes by. So, yes I am definitely Pregnant. And now that I have seen our baby, I am even more excited about this, whole being pregnant thing. In just four weeks I will be back in the Doctor's office. And just ten more weeks and we will be able to tell if we are having a boy or girl. How exciting. I used to dread doctor's appointments, and now I am really excited about them.



I am now in awe of how life is created and what a miracle life really is.



XOXOXO- Erin

January 5th, 2009!

Cheryl Love Christopherson was born on 01-05-09, weighing 6 pounds 11 ounces, and 18 inches long. Happy Birthday, we love you! We went to the hospital at 2a.m. Monday morning to be induced for labor, they gave me Patocin to get it going...I was already dilated to 3 centimeters at that time. At around 11 or so I received the wonderful Epidural, Yeah! I still was not progressing, and next thing we knew Cheryl was not handling the contractions very well. They had to turn the Patocin off and turned the Epidural off...because I couldn't feel my legs at all. The doctor said if we don't progress and the contractions keep bugging the baby then we would have to do a C-section. Great! I thought...get this over with already....I don't care how! Well, I didn't have to have a C-section after all and by 5 p.m. I was finally in full dilation. Witch meant...Time to push, I pushed for 2 hours and there she was, a beautiful little girl at 7:18 p.m. What a long day, to say the least! Ther...

When will she arrive?

My doctor has said that my due date is between January 5th to the 10th! I would like to know what everyone thinks when I will have this baby. Take a guess and whoever is the closest then we will name Cheryl's teddy bear after you! We are definitely ready now! We have a cradle, made by my Dad and also a great car seat and stroller finally. I think we were supposed to get that first, but oh well. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Campbell. Cheryl can now come home from the hospital and sleep in the cradle. XOXO-Erin

Ultrasound and Pregnancy Woes

I went to another Ultrasound and Doctor's appointment this week. They said that our baby is now 2 pounds 13 ounces. She had her foot and hands up by her face when we started looking at her and by the end she kicked her leg back down. I think we startled her. She looks perfect right now...she just needs to get bigger. Can you please explain to my why I have stretch Marks on my butt only? Yep, that's right, I have been rubbing that stretch mark cream on myself like I am showering in it and the only place I got them is on my used to be small butt. I have the biggest butt now with stretch marks. I am so glad they are behind me so I really don't see them all the time. They just hurt like hell. Give me a butt pad or something. Ahhh. My back has been killing me lately too...so I went to a chiropractor. It was amazing! Who knew that adjusting my back would make a huge difference. It cleared up my sinus problems and I can actually breath now. And that was just my first appointment. ...
