Going to Grammy's!

Kevin's mom (& our nephew Ryan) were nice enough to journey our way during Spring Break to spend the night with us and then take Liam back to Grammy and Papa's. We had a great time the evening of their visit, but truthfully, I dreaded saying goodbye to Liam. I figured he'd cry and cry...





Doesn't he look terribly heartbroken? Well, he wasn't, but I was. A tear (or two or three) were shed, then Kevin and I walked around the house aimlessly. Don't worry, we eventually found our way to video games (Kevin), lifetime movies (me) and later a date night, complete with a movie at a theater (haven't done that since I was 7-8 months pregnant with Liam!). The next day Mama had quiet time (watched Price-is-Right) and then a pedicure. Ahhh, what a nice break!

Oh and Bruiser (who had some pretty extensive dental work done the day before) really enjoyed the kid-free vacation!

BIG THANKS TO GRAMMY!

The BIG Easter post will follow tomorrow, as well as a visit to the train station & a fire station!

Therapy...

Not being silent about our loss is looking to be the best therapy for me during this difficult time. Through Facebook I've had countless friends reach out to me and share their stories of loss. Although it doesn't make me feel better, as we're talking about too many babies in heaven, it does make me feel less alone. So I was diagnosed w/ blighted ovum. Meaning the gestational sac and placenta was growing inside of me (the ultrasound showed it was indeed around 7 weeks along) but the baby stopped developing and was reabsorbed into my uterus. Problem is, the placenta is responsible for pregnancy symptoms, so my body still thinks it is pregnant, but there is no longer a baby or embryo. So, until I actually miscarry the tissue, I will feel pregnant. I don't know how to explain how I've been feeling the past few weeks. At first I thought it was just my uneasy feelings of this pregnancy being "unplanned" and so close to my previous pregnancy. It took me a wh...

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...
