Anthony was born on June 28, 2010 at 11:48pm by c-section. After being induced at 8am and going through labor all day, the decision was finally made at about 10pm to go ahead with the c-section. My worst fear came true, I labored all day long, without pain medication, and ended up having to get an epidural for the c-section. The surgery was the scariest thing I have had to endure, but he came out healthy and I had almost no complications with the surgery. He was 6lbs 12oz and 21 inches long........
Its hard to believe that was almost 8 weeks ago. He is such an amazingly good baby and we are so blessed. He is almost sleeping more than 6 hours in a row at night, and is eating like a champ.

Still waiting....
So Monday's doc appointment came and went. She basically told us that if he doesn't decide to join us soon, we will be induced on Monday.
So, we have another doc appointment today to see what route of induction we will have to take. Depending on where my body is as far as dilation and effacment, apparently means many different options for induction.
To be honest, my biggest fear is that the induction won't take and that we will have to get a c-section. But, whatever happens, will happen, and as long as he is healthy and I am healthy at the end of all of this - it's ok.
Hope to have another update soon!!!

The Waiting Game...
So we are now past our due date. So the waiting game begins.
I have gotten the joy of experiencing prodromal labor. I have been to the hospital twice now, and been sent home twice. So needless to say I have been experiencing labor pains since last tuesday. I was originally told that the prodromal labor could last 4-5 days, but then found out later it can last up to 2 weeks. So we will wait. We have a doctor's appointment today so we will see what she says.
Info on prodromal labor: "Often in the past prodroal labor has been gien the misnomer "false labor", yet every woman experiencing it has said in frustration "There's nothing false about what I'm feeling!" The misunderstanding has arisen because prodromal labor can feel very much like active labor, yet is not consistently progressive; it does not lead without a break to the birth of the baby. It does, though, serve an important function in the birth process. Prodromal labor does the preliminary work of preparing the uterus, baby and cervix for birth. All of this work has to be done before the baby can be born. Some women's bodies do it all without being aware of it. However, some women's bodies draw a great deal of attention to the work being done. Too much sometimes."
We are super excited for Anthony to get here, and we know our family is feeling the same. Apparently half of my family has set bets on dates now. So we shall see who wins :)

All packed....
So we are all packed and ready for the hospital. So whenever Anthony decides to join us on this side, we will at least have some clothes for him to come home in.
Scout has become super snuggle lately - we think he knows something is going on....
Scout also got to sniff our the car seat that we got from my cousin Mikala. We got the crying doll at Target - Scout could care less about it. The noises it makes don't bother him at all.
Brian also got his Diaper Genie today. He is super excited. We are now full-term so Anthony can really come whenever he wants. Everyone is so excited to meet him!!!

33 Weeks
Holy cow, everyone said it would go by fast and it sure has. Of course there were times, like night sickness, not sleeping, other fun things the body does that no one ever tells you, that it has seemed to go slow.
But, as we are in the middle of our 33rd week, I can't begin to imagine the life that we have been blessed with and how our lives will change.
As everyone asks me, "How are you feeling? or How are you doing?", there really is no way to put into words what has been going through our minds. We are at the point of anxious. It is a happy anticipation that cannot be put into any other words.
Brian has returned to work today, and he is happy to go back. I think he will of course not like going back to the same everyday mundane. But I think he is happy to go back to work and feel like he is accomplishing something everyday.
We both have come up with a new motto - make it a good day. I think it was really more of his idea :) No matter what craziness life has been throwing us, we have to remind each other to choose our happiness. We can either let stupid things at work, or even something small as traffic, throw our minds off of what we have coming up. We both realize, even if it is only to a small degree, how crazy life will become with a newborn. I know we are ready. We just need to treasure every moment, as we will never be able to get it back.

Third Trimester
Well, we finally entered our seventh month and third trimester. This sure is going by fast.
Let's see, what's new lately.....
Brian had surgery on his left shoulder. He dislocated it in a hockey game - he likes to say he had help. He is doing okay. He started physical therapy last week and every improvement is a little one, yet it is huge for him. He isn't slated to go back to work until, at the very earliest, the end of April.
We are getting the nursery more ready. We will picking up a bunch of little things this weekend from work, when we purchase our new living room sectional.
There actually wasn't any snow that fell from the sky in March, so all of our perennials are starting to pop up already.
Anthony and I are doing fine. We are just starting to get to the point of not being able to comfortably sleep through the night. He sure does move a lot. :)
Well, I promise it won't be almost 2 months til I post again!!

We just started our 22 week and have another doctor's appointment tonight!
Monday, February 1, 2010
and the baby is......
A BOY!!!!
Yep that's right; we're having a boy!
We just found out today and we are ecstatic!! Of course we would have been ecstatic either way! The ultrasound technician, said "You know, we can't say with 100% certainty if it's a boy or a girl; but here is HIS PENIS!" It was so funny!!
So in around 20 weeks, we will be welcoming Anthony Brian Jeannette into the world!!!
Thanks everyone for the prayers and well wishes - I have been feeling so much better lately!

18 weeks
Oh my... we're 18 weeks along. We just entered our fifth month and we are both feeling a lot better. My stomach is popping out a bit...
I made it back from Philly safely, and Brian is finally over his stomach bug.
We finally took down the Christmas decorations yesterday and scrubbed the filth out of the kitchen.
We are going to California on the 26th and will be back on the 31st. Brian's wedding present from me was an away Wild jersey. He then got to pick another team and we would go to an away Wild game in that city. So, he chose San Jose. That way we can spend a week in San Francisco with Clay and his family.
On February 1st, we are going for our 20 week ultrasound. Hopefully, if the baby cooperates, we will find out if it is a boy or girl!!! So that only gives you 16 more days to vote on what you think we are having!
We are trying to keep sane, but we both are so excited its hard to just sit and relax some days.....but obviously we find some way to do it ;)

Philly, no not the cheesesteak...
I made it to Philly yesterday. I hate flying, but have gotten used to it over the years. Somehow my fear of heights is subsided when I fly. I think I got the stomach bug that the boys had around Christmas, which made flying terribly uncomfortable. Thankfully mine lasted under 24 hours.
I had my first day on the remodel project today. It went fairly smoothly. One guy on our project team, got stuck in Atlanta on his way here from Frisco. Apparently, his landing gear broke upon landing in Atlanta. Thank God, I only hear about these incidents and they don't happen to me. I don't think I could get back on the plane.
I am getting comfortable in the hotel, and actually slept through the night with only waking a few times throughout the night. I foresee getting terribly bored by Wednesday night however. I of course also miss home terribly. But I know I will be home before I know it. I just need to remember to relax and enjoy the time I have here and do nothing.

Procrastination
Brian and I are the King and Queen of procrastination.
Well mostly I am.
I am still shopping for Christmas 3 days before Christmas. HAHAHA *nervous laugh*
Oh well........
We entered the second trimester on Sunday!! I still have "morning" sickness, but not as often. Baby is doing fine, and growing and starting to squirm. I am feeling only little flutters here and there, but it is such a cool feeling.
I found out that I will only have to go to Philly for one week now instead of three. So I will be in Philly from January 3rd through January 8th. Then, Mary and I are driving up to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area for the weekend. Then I will be home on the 10th.
We are still planning our vacation to California at the end of January. Brian's wedding gift from me was an away Wild jersey; and he got to pick an away game to go to. So, he choose the San Jose Sharks. It just so happens that Heidi's birthday is January 29th. They live in Walnut Creek, CA, which is only 30 minutes away from San Jose. So we get to hang out with the Kirby's for a week and finally meet Madeline, the newest member of their family.
We can't wait to spend this holiday with all of our family and friends. We hope everyone has a safe, warm and memorable Christmas!!!

Thanks
We cannot say "Thank you" enough to all of our friends and family. You have truly helped us become who we are today. We are so excited to be adding to our family!!
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We got to spend time with most of all sides of our families. We even already picked up our Christmas tree. We won't set it up until we clean the house a little more, and rearrange the living room yet again.
We hope everyone had a wonderful and memorable Thanksgiving;
- HERE COMES CHRISTMAS!!!

Cold
So, now I have a cold. I was told that I could be congested during the whole pregnancy. But now I have a full-blown cold, and of course, I can not take anything for it.
I tried to eat some seriously spicy queso, but Scout (our dog) decided he needed to try it before I could eat it. Oh well.
I hope this goes away by tomorrow so I can enjoy all the yummy goodness at The Nelsons and then more yummy goodness with dessert at The Jensens!!!!

Ultrasound
We got to see the baby!!!!
We had our ultrasound on Tuesday and it really made everything real!
The baby was 2.81cm long, and it's heartbeat was 167.
As soon as we can scan the pictures, we will post them!
Our updated due date is June 20, 2010! Yep that's Father's Day!
I get so confused about the whole, the first 2 weeks of the pregnancy is when you aren't even pregnant. So whatever, we are 9 weeks 4 days pregnant.

Excitement
We had our first OB appointment on the 9th. The doc says I am a week ahead of what I think I am, so we get to have an early ultrasound for dating.
So, we go in for our first ultrasound tomorrow and I am beyond ecstatic! I know Brian will record the heartbeat and I can't wait to get some pictures! I am pretty sure we will get some pictures, so I will definitely post them. I just can't wait til the appointment is over and I can feel some relief. I will admit there is part of me that feels this isn't real, even though I have been sick as a dog.
I have been feeling a little better lately, but I am still exhausted. I have been trying not to work such long hours, and some days I succeed at that.
Brian has been amazing!!! I am so exhausted and he has done so much! He has put up the Christmas lights already (twice, cause he had to fix some), done almost all of the laundry (trust me it's a lot), put up with my already crazy mood swings, reorganized our new furniture in the bedroom and even bought me some chocolate. So to surprise him, I decided to buy him the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. I told him it was time for him to relax and not do anything over the weekend. So, I got out of his hair, went shopping with my mom on Saturday and then had to work Sunday. I think he is really enjoying the game.
Hopefully, I'll post some pictures tomorrow....

Lately
So Halloween was completely uneventful! We didn't even have a single trick-or-treater! We still did a little trick-or-treating of our own, and delivered baby trick-or-treater baskets to 2 of our sisters.
We then sent 5 more baskets to other siblings and friends across the country.
We are slowing telling friends, and cannot wait til we have our first appointment next Monday! We will finally get to figure out how far along we really are. As of right now I think our due date will be anywhere between June 12th and June 26th.
Well, I have tried to enjoy my day off as much as possible, but now I must run errands. O, sleep how I do love you right now!

Exhaustion
I am utterly exhausted. I got 8 hours of sleep last night, but that doesn't compare to the usual 10-13 that I have been getting every night for the past week and a half.
I made it through the day though without a nap.
Brian's parents came over, and we shared the big news with them after they looked at the wedding pictures. They were so happy for us, and of course told us to not get sick and take care of ourselves. I think they really enjoyed their gifts as well.
So, I am taking their advice and I am going to bed; yes at 9:00pm.
Hey - I work in the morning and that will only give me 10 hours of sleep, that's on the low end of the average.

Dang Camera
We forgot to check if our camera had it's memory card in.
It didn't.
We told my dad and step mom tonight, and they are ecstatic. They had somewhat the same reaction of my mom - "I can't believe already! We expected an announcement at Christmas."
My Dad is already referring to me as "the mom".
Lynn, my step mom, is bursting at the seams. She insisted that we tell everyone that we need to tell before she tells the whole world the happy news.
So, we came up with an idea with the help of my brother, Taylor. We are going to send my step-sisters that live out of state a baby pumpkin with an assortment of baby things. Then for our sisters that live in town, we are going to surprise them trick or treating in our Halloween costumes. I think I am going to wear a shirt that says something like Baby with an arrow pointing down. Or just get the "bun in the oven costume". Taylor was joking that Brian should dress up as Michael Phelps, hence the good swimmers joke.
It didn't.

Lynn, my step mom, is bursting at the seams. She insisted that we tell everyone that we need to tell before she tells the whole world the happy news.
So, we came up with an idea with the help of my brother, Taylor. We are going to send my step-sisters that live out of state a baby pumpkin with an assortment of baby things. Then for our sisters that live in town, we are going to surprise them trick or treating in our Halloween costumes. I think I am going to wear a shirt that says something like Baby with an arrow pointing down. Or just get the "bun in the oven costume". Taylor was joking that Brian should dress up as Michael Phelps, hence the good swimmers joke.
