It feels like just yesterday that I saw my baby for the first time on ultrasound, it's so hard to believe that it has been almost three weeks! So much has happened both joyous and heartwrenching.
Grandpap was rushed to the hospital in diabetic shock, and turns out he had spinal menengitis. I rushed to NC from Gallaudet (DC) to ensure he recieved adequate care. He was so not himself that it was difficult to watch. I missed a final, and could only stay for 2 days then I had to return home and mom came down to sit with him so I could do my ART final.
At exactly 10 weeks pregnant, December 17, 2008, I heard the most astonishing, precious sound in the world...my baby's heart beat on doppler. I had purchased a medical grade doppler for at home when I began to suspect something was wrong with the last pregnancy, but it arrived after the miscarriage had been confirmed. It was amazing to be able to use it at home and hear my baby. I was so excited I took the time to record the heart beat and sent it to nearly every single person I know including Jason.
Thursday was Christms and we finally told Madyson about the baby, she was the only person we know that didn't know about the baby. I had bought her a T-shirt and had it printed with a little blonde haired princess and said "I'm going to be a big sister, Madyson." I was deeply hurt when she was so grumpy that she got clothing that she refused to read the shirt, and when Jason told her she smacked him several times. When she finally calmed down and it sunk in she turned to me and ask "you are?" I shook my head yes giggling. She then turned to Jason and asked "her is?" I took video of it but I need to edit it so that everyone doesn't have to see Madyson beating up her father.
I scheduled an ultrasound at the Baby Preview Company in Reading Pa on Saturday, February 21, 2009 which he and Madyson can go to, and hopefully we'll find out the gender.
