It's a Bird! It's a Plane!...No, it's a Really Swollen Pregnant Lady!



It's been a little while since I have complained about the wonderful changes that I am going through...so I thought I would catch everyone up on them. First things first, I have major unexplainable heartburn...if that's what you call it. I have polished a bottle of tums in a mere two weeks. Tums are like candy to me now. I also am swelling up everywhere...my ankles mostly. I am still trying to exercise every day and I must say I do feel much better when I do. Although it doesn't get rid of my heartburn/acid reflux crap. Everyone is asking me..."when are you due? You look like your going to pop right now!" Let me give you a little hint...do not say that to pregnant women...it is kinda rude. I feel like a house...so I don't need to hear that I look like one too! I feel like I have a long ways to go still. Really I do feel pretty good. I just like to complain.

hint of the day: suck on jolly rancher candy or something like htat. It will help with the heartburn adn the acid reflux..I had them both. They really really help..and taste better than tums...and try gum too. hang in there..it is all worth it!!
I feel for you, I really do. I had heartburn so bad with Aliya and I spent most nights sleeping on the chair in the living room cause it hurt way too bad to lie down. Hang in there. I got your cute Shower invite. I already RSVPed to Christine. Sure wish I would of had that jolly rancher tip. :)

Well I'm not going to give you any advice, because I don't have any yet. I think you're beautiful any size and I can't wait to see you and your wonderful belly! Hopefully the swelling doesn't hurt sweetie. It will be over soon enough and you will wonder where the time went. Miss you!

YAY I like your background and such too! Very cute. I am having a great day! I love the flowers you sent me! Thank you soooo much. Everyone's like - who sent you those? and I told them my little sister did. hehe They have Snake grass in them...remember when we used to play with that all the time in Springville? Did you have it put in there on purpose? I love them...and I love you!

Thanks again and talk to you soon!!!

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

Our Baby Girl's Room

The Baby room is getting more attention now. I have decorated the walls and put new bedding in the crib. I thought about painting the walls but I think it looks better with the original cream color. I really didn't want to much going on in there. She is one lucky girl to have all this attention to her room. If you didn't notice from the pictures we have decided to name her Cheryl Love Christopherson. She is named after her Grandma Christopherson that has passed away from breast cancer. She was a amazing woman and so little Cheryl has some big shoes to fill. My next project is to make some cute little dresses for her. We can't wait for her arrival. XOXO-Erin
