We heard the babies heartbeat today!
March 27th 2008 03:36
"That had to be the most amazing sound in the whole world!!!!" I sooo badly wanted to record the sound but Kaitly was sooo sick, she was shaking the whole entire time and crying some. it was her first pap which means it was the first time she had to let two strangers look at her. That was sooo hard because she has only been with Chris, and thats how it is for him too. They where each others first and they waited for more then a year to be together after dating. They are such a cute couple. They didn't even kiss for a long time. they wanted to wait for the first snow for their first kiss. I just think that is soo cute.
The whole time she was at the docs she just shook getting ready to hurl anyy momment. It was a combination of the horrible morning sickness, Not being able to hold more then a few crackers down in a couple days, and then being nervouse. So popping out the phone to record the babies heartbeat, I felt was something that i could wait for. We get another Ultrasound in just barely over two weeks. i'll try and do it then.
Kaitlyn and I both LOVED, LOVED, LOVED her OBGYN dr and his nurses. Kaitlyn had sooo wnated a girl dr and thats why she was alos soo shaking, but when we called the prefered girl dr here, we found out she no longer delivers, but she recomended dr Nahah [sp?] so we just called without thinking wether it was a male or female. But once Kaitlyn met him, we where both extremely happy. He is such a wonderful dr. Just very friendly, caring and didn't rush at all. We ddn't talk to him much about Dad and i adopting the baby but we did talk to the nurse. kaitlyn has wanted to do a sarogate type adoption since she was 11, to dad and i with her first baby. i havent talked to many people about this because i thought as she got older she would changer her mind but she didn't. Even now we talk about it daily, me telling her I would be just as happy to be grandma. i've said it sooo much that she has actualy gotten a little mad at me and told me to stop, but i told her it's my job as a mom and that i would love to have either role. This is a sort of shared adoption. Dad and I have all the financial resposabilty and playing the roles asmom and dad and grandma and grandpa. And then kaitlyn and chris will do the same thing. Be mom and dad but not. If that makes sense. The baby will know from day one that they where conceived as a gift to us aftercancer took away my chances of having more children. Here it is 10 years after I havd cancer and now it's time. Kaitlyn is adopted and sooo knows what that means. Some people have been supportive and some have not. "Those that mind, don't matter, those that matter don't mind!" We realy just look at it like taht and move on. this was something she planned 7.5 years ago and had plenty of time to make sure it's what she relay wants and still has all the way until just after the baby is born to decide. She graduates next year at almost twenty and has plans for college and such and Chris graduates this year and is looking into college. they siad they don't plan on having their own children alll for theirself for about five or six more years.I must have been a pretty good mom for them to wnat to do this. For years we have looked into adopting through somewhere like China and kaitlyn was always agaisn't it because of all the things that can g wrong, and the cost and travel and all that. For years she has told me, Just wait mom until I am 18 or 19 and My very first baby is yours and dads. I understand her feelins of wanting to do this sooo bad because i myself wanted to be a serogate and I myself was also in foster care. It's an amazing gift and I can't believe they are doing this. i feel bad for what she is going through with being sick. i am just getting over the flu so we hope that is what was wrong with her and this will pass soon. She is loving being babied by everyone. She just lays arround all the time lounging, taking it easy.
The dr perscribed her this stuff she sqeezes onto these preasure points on her rist, to help nausia. He also gave her a few other things to help. It has a little so far, but not alot. She is still realy sick. She lost five pounds so far. WE hope the other script kicks in and she soon feels better. She is dehydraded too some so she has to get more fluids. We iced up some water bottles so they would be nice a cold for her and hopefully get her to want to suck more down. She can't even sit up straight. She is that ill. It helped make it all worth it hearing that heart beat and finally seeing taht "There is indeed a baby in there." We where still kind of nervouse that the sack would still be empty like it was at the ER. OMG I still can't even believe the mirracle of all of this and that I can be such a big part of it all. It's sooo much different for me now. When I had kids I was 19 and 20 so I felt more like she does.. "Excited but not understanding it all or just how powerful it all is." Now at 39 it's like "WOW!!!!" I cried when I saw the baby, then I cried more when I heard that thump thump, thump thump. well, not the best pics because she is only 6 weeks and 3 days but here they are.
