On December 7th I found out that we were expecting our next little miracle and starting a new journey. I had no idea this journey would be as bumpy as it has been. I knew that we should expect some complications in the 3rd trimester since Easton was premature and I was put on bed rest. I was not prepared for what the doctor would say at my 8 week appointment.
It is going to be nearly impossible for me to carry a baby to full term. Not only do I have a history of pre-term labor, but I have a short cervix. I will need to start weekly hormone injections at 16 weeks to try and keep my uterus from contracting and I will be taking it easy my ENTIRE pregnancy. How does this sound to an active mother of a 15 month old? IMPOSSIBLE!
My goal is to cook this peanut as long as possible and to whatever means necessary. Every week will be a small accomplishment with the end result being a healthy baby!
This pregnancy was already so different from Easton'sbefore the doctor. Morning sickness, insomnia, headaches, the works! I know that every pregnancyis different just as every child is different, but DANG! However knowing that this could possibly be my last child to carry makes me treasure every nauseous minute of these 9 months.
