Almost Time

I know it has been awhile since my last blog again. I am not very good about blogging on a regular basis. So my baby shower was March 20, and it was great. I got tons of stuff. I almost didn't think I was going to have room for everything but I did. I think I have everything that I need to at least to get us started. So now we are just playing the waiting game. Also I am so greatful to everyone who threw me the shower and to everyone who came.
We went to the doctor on Wednesday and had an ultrasound. The baby has already flipped, so I think it will be soon. The lady told us that the baby has lots of hair, so we will see. Baby Koester still didn't want to let us find out its gender. I feel so bad when I call it it but I don't know what we are having. The baby weighs almost 6 pounds, doctor said it was a little under average but nothing to worry about. I also developed gestational diabetes. So now I have to watch what I eat and take my blood sugar 3 times a day. Also this Monday I will be 36 weeks so I will go the doctor every week now til D day. I also have to go twice a week to be monitored to see if the baby's heart rate is doing ok and to see if I am having any contractions. Other than that this is all I have this time. So everything sounds kind of major but the doctors are just keeping an eye on things and so far so good.

Pregnancy

31 weeks

I know it's been a while since my last and only blog. Well I am now 8 months pregnant and can't get comfortable to sleep so I decided I will blog. I have had a really smooth pregnancy so I guess I can't complain to much but there are a few thing I would like to blog about. First is I think I now have a bladder the size of a pea and I'm not joking. Also now that my belly is getting bigger I find it hard to sleep and also I have backaches a lot. I keep telling myself everything it going great and I'm almost to the end and then I get this awesome gift that I have been waiting for. So on another note, feeling the baby move is I think one of the craziest things I have ever experienced. Just to know that there is a little human in your belly and you can feel it move is so crazy but yet so cool at the same time. I am almost 32 weeks pregnant and I am the only one so far to feel him or her move. Jonathan has yet to feel it. Every time he puts his hand on my belly the baby stops. I just hope he can at least feel it one time before the baby comes. And last I know this is something that some people will not want to hear but when I got pregnant i never had any morning sickness but some how I did loose weight. I found out the other day what my starting weight was and what I am now. I am still 3 pounds lighter now then what I started out to be. I lost enough weight at the beginning that I really have not gained any weight from being pregnant, I am just gaining some back from what I lost. Which is totally crazy. And just so everyone knows the doctor is not concerned because the baby measuring right where he or she should be. I am just totally confused because I have never had a problem putting weight on. So that is the end of my blog for this time, more to come.

The best of 2010

The end of July 2010 I found out I was pregnant with my first baby. It was a total shock for Jonathan and me. When I was younger, I think like 17 my doctor told me that I would probably never be able to have kids because I have polycystic ovaries. At that age I always knew I wanted kids but I was too young to really worry about kids then. So anyways, do you ever think things happen for a reason? I do now. In June 2010 Jonathan's grandpa Novak died and at the end of July like a month later is when I found out I was pregnant. I still say that grandpa had something to do with giving us a baby. I think it is like his way of still being here with us.

Then on Christmas night 2010 Jonathan proposed to me. We have have been together for almost 4 years and live together. I was working that night and he came up to my work for what was I thought because I forgot my cell phone at his grandpa Koester's, little did I know what was about to happen. He asked me how much I loved him and I asked him what did he do and how much was it going to cost. He then asked me agian and I said a lot and he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.

2010 is a year I will not forget and I think that 2011 will be better. We are getting married on Nov 5 and our baby is due on May 2. I am so ready for this baby to be here that I don't know if I can wait the last 14 weeks (even though I will have too). We don't know what the sex of the baby is and we don't have names picked out yet. I also know we are doing thing in the wrong order like moving in together first, then getting pregnant, and then getting married but everything happens for a reason and I wouldn't change anything. So all in all I had a good 2010 and I can't wait for 2011.
