It's a miracle!

I am posting... is that a miracle?  

Probably!  

Speaking of miracles... I am 14 weeks pregnant with baby Weber #3!!!

I have a maternal fetal medicine consult appointment and ultrasound!  I have had some complications with this pregnancy (a small bleed behind the placenta), so I am hoping and praying for good results tomorrow!  I have high hopes that the bleed will have healed up and that I will be able to go on and carry this baby to term.

Anyway, hopefully we will have some nice (healthy) pictures of our baby to be as of tomorrow!!!  We are not planning on finding out what we are having this go round, but I imagine that depends on how many ultrasounds we actually end up having to have (you know, it is harder to keep the gender a secret if we are having ultrasounds every so often).  

Wish us luck, send prayers and good vibes our way :)

or not...

At this point it looks like labor has stopped for the time being and I will probably be headed home in the morning. Which is good news for sure, since every day/week counts for little Miss Penny :) Will keep you posted! Wish me luck on getting some sleep now!

Little Miss Penny Popper

Well, it appears that Miss Penny will be born soon. I am currently at the hospital and in labor. Currently I am 3 cm dilated and have a bulging bag of water (the will not break my water till morning until the high risk drs are here). We will post pictures as soon as we can, she will likely be in the NICU for some time since she is only 34 weeks along. Your prayers are appreciated! We will keep you posted!

I am 26 weeks pregnant with Penny in these pictures.

Penelope ??? Weber

Here is the cute picture... her profile :D It looks like she has my profile unlike Nate who had Dan's profile very clearly!

Penny's foot.

Penelope's alien baby picture... her face!

Nate's going to be a BIG BROTHER!!!

Yup, that's right... we are sure...

Baby #2 at 6 weeks

I have another ultrasound of the baby at 8.5 weeks... but it will not post correctly for some reason!

So, the baby is 10 weeks as of tomorrow, putting the due date at 1/22/10! We were able to get a good heartbeat on doppler today, so the Dr. is pretty confident that this one will be a keeper! I was worried, but hearing the heartbeat today REALLY helped!

Well, this week certainly has been one of interest. Dan and I had a (not so fun) run to the ER a few nights ago after I started to bleed. Several hours later, we had the answer we knew all along... "well, you shouldn't be bleeding". Just in case you did not know, these types of answers bug the living daylight out of me. I KNOW I shouldn't be bleeding... hence the fact that I rushed into the ER. Anyway. We were VERY happy though to see that our baby is doing just dandy. We found out that we are having a little boy, like we thought all along :D I went in for an ultrasound with Carol the next night (Wednesday) cause I started bleeding some more and we got to see that our little boy was still doing well and has a good strong heartbeat still. I started taking my Progesterine again on Wednesday and we are hoping that this will help stop the bleeding and allow for the baby to continue to grow. I have my 2nd prenatal appointment on Tuesday, so hopefully everything will continue to look good at that point. I did not get to talk to my doctor when the bleeding started (thanks to Thanksgiving), so it will be good to hear what he has to say as far as the bleeding goes. I was planning on going to this appointment on my own, since Dan has school during the time that my appointment is... but I am rethinking that since I started bleeding. I think that I shall talk to him tonight and see if it is possible for him to go to the appointment, all things considered :D I will have to post the pictures of Dan deep frying the turkey for Thanksgiving tomorrow (or later tonight)!

The name game!

In this picture, the baby is facing forward with it's head in the upper right hand corner of the sac :D

Second trimester - WE MADE IT!!!

Well, the picture to the left is of me (duh) at 12 weeks :D As you can tell... I think I am showing ;) I had 4 people come up to me on Sunday and ask if I was pregnant. Actually, one looked at my belly and said, "Any news?"... it did not cross my mind at the time, but he already knew because Dan ran into him on Trax and told him because his wife had just recently had a baby. Dan finally called his mother and told her, although I think she might have figured it out on Saturday when we go over there for Pie night. I am officially 13 weeks today and therefore in my second trimester :D My doctor had wanted me to stay on my Progesterone until 14 weeks, but I run out of it as of tomorrow night. Dr. Lash said that the placenta should take over the making of progesterone as of 12 weeks, so I should be in the clear! My placenta is doing well... lol... odd thing to say, but when we listened to the baby's heartbeat last week we could barely hear the baby's heartbeat over the blood flow to the placenta. I just got back from Carol's office, where she did our weekly ultrasound. It is still amazing to us to see how much the baby grows each week. This week the baby is about the size of a peach... about three inches. Our baby looked like a little monster. The baby was sitting with it's legs open this week, but we could not tell if there was a penis or a foot... guess we will just have to keep waiting to find out! Dan has decided (as of last week) that he wants a girl. Which is funny because the last 2 pregnancies he REALLY wanted a boy. I think that part of me still wants a girl, but I KNOW I will be excited either way! However, we already know that choosing a girl's name will be a lot easy for us than a boy's name. We cannot seem to agree on a name if it is a boy. However, if it is a girl we already know the middle name (Lily) and we are trying to decide between 5 first names, but regardless of her first name, we will call her Lily. OK, that is all the news that I have for now :D Send us suggestions for a boy's name... because the only name we can agree on is Stephen Thomas Weber. I will post pictures of the baby later on tonight!

12 weeks... second trimester here we come!

Just a picture of the ultrasound of the baby at 12 weeks. It is not a great picture, but you can see the baby is sucking it's thumb. You can also see how much the baby has grown in the past week :D

Baby Weber

Well, for those of you who do not know, we are "officially" announcing that I am pregnant. That's right... 3 times in 6 months... must be some sort of world record (at least I am convinced). I am just over 11 weeks now and the baby is doing well. My aunt has been doing ultrasounds weekly, which is nice, since I freak out at least once a week that something is wrong with the baby and that I have miscarried AGAIN. Last week we went to my first prenatal appointment and we got to hear the baby's heartbeat, what a relief. The heartbeat is still running a tiny bit fast, but we are not too worried about that... considering this is the first time that we have ever gotten a heartbeat on Doppler when we were supposed to! It has been really neat to be able to see how much our little baby has grown from week to week. At week 6 we could see a heartbeat :D Week 8 and 9 we saw the developing brain (so obviously a head too) and little legs. At week 10 we saw toes (so cute) and apparently the baby's arms decided to show up this week too :D The baby was doing somersaults at week 10 too. Dan was not able to see the baby at weeks 9 and 10. Which made week 11 ever more exciting... we got to see the baby moving again (this being this first time Dan saw the baby really move). This week we could see the baby's little hands and some fingers on the ultrasound. Dan said that the baby was dancing for us and that the baby only dances in public (like Dan does when we are in public). I think that we are going to have a 3D/4D ultrasound done sometime some.... probably in about 5 or 6 weeks. Here is the ultrasound picture from 6 weeks and a picture of the ultrasound screen at 11 weeks... now you get to see how much Baby Weber is growing :D

Yup, that is our little grain of rice baby :D


Dan is pointing to the baby's arm!
