Baby Ollie

I want to thank everyone for their prayers! for those of you who don’t know, tuesday afternoon my water broke, so we went to the hospital. eventually the baby’s heart stopped, so we had to deliver him. We named him Oliver Harbaugh, ollie for short. he weighed 3.5 ounces and was 7 inches long. He was breathtakingly gorgeous! I wish we had been able to know him, but he is in a better place. We will probably post pictures in a few days for those who want to see them.

14 weeks

Well, I’m 14 weeks. I am finally (hopefully) over morning sickness. I don’t have too many complaints about pregnancy itself, just an overall discomfort of stuff moving around. You know, like my hips widening and uterus expanding. twinge-y stuff. But all-in-all its going well. Josh and I listen to the baby every night for a few minutes, and we bought a pack of onesies when we were at walmart the other day. that’s the first thing we bought.

We are talking about names… we really like Oliver for a boy…like the green arrow :D… we’d call him Ollie. Jury is still out on a girls name we like Elise, Charlotte, Isabella, and a few others…

I should be ashamed of myself…

Well, as most of you have guessed from my back and forth from my sister, I am PREGNANT! I am currently 10.5 weeks (11 on Wednesday). I have been on bed rest through a lot of it, at first it was a twin pregnancy, but I lost one at 6 weeks. But then we saw the heartbeat for the other baby and everything looks good… the bed rest was precautionary. Then, last friday I was put back on bed rest after waking up to some blood (TMI, I know). Is there anything scarier than than that (except, as my sister reminds me, no fetal movement *shivers*)? I am completely freaked out, so I got on the internet and bought a fetal doppler to listen for the heartbeat… obsessive, I know, but when you spend thousands to get the kid, and have had past issues, and current issues, it is worth the peace of mind to know it’s still in there cookin away… KWIM? You know, after all of this I think Tan may be right, and I should twitter, my life doesn’t look so boring when you jumble it all together like that… Josh is scanning ultrasound pics now!

Babies are bits of stardust, blown from the hand of God.
