Erin's latest Prego Appt.

I had a Doctor appointment on Monday the 14th. Same day as my friend Danielle's birthday and my Nephew, Daniel's too. Happy Birthday guys! The appointment went good. I am now a lot heavier and the most that I have ever weighted in my life. I am not saying how much. I guess the routine is, pee and a cup, give some blood and we'll see you in a month. I am really happy that everything is going so wonderful. My legs are not cramping any more...so really other than my ever stretching skin I am great. Next appointment I will find out what we are having. Which is in about five weeks. Then I can buy pink or blue. How exciting. I also got to hear the heart beat again...and the nurse found it really quick, so that means that everything is going great.
I am starting to feel fluttering inside, so I know that our baby is active already. This whole baby thing is still so surreal. I can't wait...time is going by so very fast too.
XOXO-Erin

A quick heartbeat can indicate a GIRL baby. At least that is what our doctor told us when I was pregnant with Aliya! :) I am really happy for you guys. I love that we all have the blog thing to keep in touch.

Ohhh I hope what Amy says is true! I think you already know, but that is pretty cool still. I can't wait to find out, then I can start buying special stuff for him or her. YAY!!!

Love the mouse post! I would be feeling the same way, get that thing out of here. We have a TON of them around our house because of all the fields. Sounds like the pregnancy thing is going good, setting up the babys room is so much fun!

Glad your appointment went well! That is wonderful that you don't have those leg cramps anymore. What a pain!! That is great that they found the heartbeat so quickly. Let us know just as soon as you find out what you are having! We are excited to hear!!

Does anyone have a trank gun!

Sometimes I feel like a toddler, discovering my belly button for the first time. My belly button is so unrecognizable now. The only problem I am finding about being pregnant is all the body changes. I mean, weight! Being thin for 28 years then ballooning up in a matter of months has really scared me. I know, I know, everyone says that I will loose it all very quickly, but I still don't like it. At church I looked down at my feet and ankles and realized that I no longer have any ankles...they have morphed into cankles...Yuk! I was so discussed that I almost threw up. I wish I was one of those women who don't gain hardly anything and don't really look like they are pregnant until they give birth. Okay, enough of poor me! It's not hard to remind myself that I am pregnant though...I can't go an hour without her kicking me. There is life in there...I am so happy whenever I can feel her. I am happy really easily...just give me chips or ice cream and I am fine. Which isn...

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...

Boy or Girl?

Does anyone want to know if we are having a boy or girl? Well, I went to the Doctor on Tuesday, while Nathan was in Salt Lake working. They have the ultrasound technician there only on Tuesdays and there was no way that Nathan could be there because he goes to SLC every week for work. So, we didn't want to share the pictures from the ultrasound until Nathan saw them first. Then we had another appointment at the doctor's for a check up on Friday. I am gaining so much weight it is disgusting. Before I went to the first appointment, I gave our baby a pep talk...you know, to be photogenic and all that. Our baby did so good. Oh, I haven't said what we are having, have I!? Okay, no more stalling, boy oh boy, we are having a baby girl! We couldn't be happier, and now we can buy tons of pink. She is so active...keeping me up at night already. She really doesn't stop moving. So far, I think she takes after me...Nathan is so mellow and she is anything but that right now. I gu...
