And then there were four...: Happy Birthday Ryan!
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/05/happy-birthday-ryan.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Five years ago today we welcomed our gorgeous and spunky son into this world. It was a perfect day. He's a spirited and imaginative little boy who can build nearly anything with Legos and absolutely loves Transformers. We're so proud to be his mommy and daddy! May 5, 2015 at 1:02 PM. May 5, 2015 at 2:26 PM. Hes such a cutie-pie! May 5, 2015 at 8:06 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Find me on Social Media. Follow me via email.

And then there were four...: 31w5d - We have a delivery date!
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/06/31w5d-we-have-delivery-date.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Monday, June 15, 2015. 31w5d - We have a delivery date! Friday I saw my OB and MFM at back-to-back appointments. Weight gain is. nothing. I'm down from my last appointment again so, I've gained nada from appointment #1. In fact, I'm down 3 pounds from my first appointment last December. Hannah has moved right back to transverse position but, since I'm having a c-section, no one is at all concerned about how she's positioned. I wanted to laugh at her an...

And then there were four...: This is the month I have my baby!
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/07/this-is-month-i-have-my-baby.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Wednesday, July 1, 2015. This is the month I have my baby! Okay, OUR baby. I mean, James did have a hand in it! I'm 34 weeks today and, in exactly four weeks, Hannah will make her debut! Remember my last post when I said I want to remember and enjoy every minute of this pregnancy and not rush it? Yeah, I take that back. Since she's moved to head down I feel like my pelvis is supporting the weight of a bowling ball. It's uncomfortable and painful. Final...

And then there were four...: Beyond devastated...
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/01/beyond-devastated.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Monday, January 5, 2015. Two and a half years ago, as all regular readers know, I gave birth to a stillborn son at 32 weeks. The thing about making it that far into a pregnancy (as I've written here before) is that you truly believe that nothing will go so wrong that it won't end with your baby in your arms. Maybe premature, maybe needing the NICU but, alive. Then, I learned today, that a woman I work with lost her first baby this weekend at 36 weeks.

And then there were four...: 32w 2d - A very long morning
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/06/32w-2d-very-long-morning.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Friday, June 19, 2015. 32w 2d - A very long morning. First up this morning was the MFM appointment. Fetal Position: Transverse (This time in the opposite direction). Fetal Weight: 5lb 2oz (77th%). Mommy weight: -2 from start and 1 from last week. AFI: 8.8 (slightly low). Hannah was sleeping. Her heart was beating beautifully but, she was clearly sleeping. No moving around and definitely not breathing. Then it was off to my OB. On my way to the OB, ...

And then there were four...: It's not everyday you turn 40 (or, 16 as it were)!
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/05/its-not-everyday-you-turn-40-or-16-as.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Thursday, May 7, 2015. It's not everyday you turn 40 (or, 16 as it were)! I came in to work today to a "Sweet 16" themed decorated cube. So, I'm either 40 and pregnant or 16 and pregnant). I'm sad to say goodbye to my 30's but, not because I fear aging. I'm sad to leave them behind because it was a truly amazing time in my life. But, with so much to look forward to in my 40's, I know it will be another fabulous decade! Laissez les Bon temps roulez!

And then there were four...: Come drink the water
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/05/come-drink-water.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Monday, May 18, 2015. Come drink the water. Friday when I was leaving work I stepped on the elevator with a colleague who works on the same floor I do but, on the other side of the building. We were making small talk (I think she asked when my due date was) when she said "There are so many pregnant women on your side of the building, I'm not drinking the water over there! I laughed, nearly hysterically and said, "In the water? Or, maybe not. I worked i...

And then there were four...: Six days to go & Ryan gets a nasty virus
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/07/six-days-to-go-ryan-gets-nasty-virus.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Thursday, July 23, 2015. Six days to go and Ryan gets a nasty virus. This has been a pretty awful week (so far). On Monday Ryan's school called saying he was lethargic and complaining he didn't feel well. So, James runs along to pick him up and by the time I get home, he's out of it. Once he stirred I took his temp and it was 101.7. Gave him so ibuprofen to bring down the fever and that's been what our life has been like ever since. I've had to fib to ...

And then there were four...: 3 hour glucose tolerance test - Round 2
http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/05/3-hour-glucose-tolerance-test-round-2.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Friday, May 15, 2015. 3 hour glucose tolerance test - Round 2. No more GD testing, no more fasting (until c-section day)! With the worrying I've been doing lately, one less thing to add to the list is fabulous news indeed. We love Hannah so much but, we're not ready to meet her yet. We need her to stay warm and cozy right where she is for another 11 weeks. Also, the position of the cord at my last ultrasound is on my mind a lot. May 15, 2015 at 11:48 AM.

http://jch4dcu.blogspot.com/2015/08/introducing-hannah.html
And then there were four. Our Story 2009 to present. Monday, August 3, 2015. Hannah Claire was born on 7/29/15 @ 9:51AM weighing 7lbs 13oz and 20" long via scheduled c-section. I'll write more soon about her birth and how things have been since coming home. For now, here are a couple pictures of our sweet daughter. Do I even care that I'm being stitched up? Mommy and Daddy holding Hannah. August 3, 2015 at 10:20 PM. Ryan and I love you and her. August 4, 2015 at 12:36 AM. She is so beautiful!
