24 Weeks

getting bigger :)

Babys "First" Christmas

Well it was kind of her first Christmas :)

She got lots of stuff for not even being here yet ;)

Her cousin Lauren got her a cute pink trinket box with a star on it and a box of wipes, washclothes, binkys, sippy cups :)

Her "Aunt" Sami & "Uncle" Brian got her a camo outfit with white ruffles - I have a feeling when Todd dresses her that will be the outfit of choice :)

Belly was rubbed by all and she felt very loved :)

Can't believe next Christmas we will have an 8 month old!

Oh and we are pretty set on the name :
Alessandra Kaye Jimerson
"Ally" for short

Pops (her grandpa) is already calling her Ally Cat :) and her daddy calls her Ally so don't think we will be changing it :)

LEG CRAMP!!!!!!!!!

I had my first leg cramp last night, I have heard about these and got to experience one for the first time last night - I felt like I was going to die, I'm sometimes ;) dramaful but this time I really thought I was going to die!

Todd had fallen asleep in the recliner and thank goodness because he might of gotten knocked out I was moving all over the bed trying to get rid of the cramp, I was crying and yelling for Todd but did he wake up and check on me NOPE Jasper was in bed and he didn't even budge. Hopefully I don't go into labor in the middle of the night or I will have to drive myself to the hospital ;)

After the cramp finally went away, I fell back to sleep and had a great dream of the baby she was sooooooo cute and all smiles very happy baby so it made all the pain worth it - I'm guessing like giving birth - the end result is so worth it :)

22 weeks

22 weeks belly pics.

I go see my urologist the 19th to go over my ultrasound of my kidney (it was enlarged). I have been feeling better though.

She has been really moving more like kicking, she even has woken me up in the middle of the night, I guess she is giving me practice. It's a great feeling though so I don't mind. Todd is able to feel her more :)
My sisters got me my nursery bedding for an early b-day present it's soooo cute and girly :) We will start painting the nursery after Christmas.

LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!

I woke up yesterday with some HORRIBLE back pains on the my side, and nausea called my doc and he had me come in checked the babies heartbeat 150 :) sent me over to get an ultrasound done on my kidneys (I am prone to kidney stones because I have a medullary sponge kidney) During the US on my kidney baby Jimerson stuck her hand in the picture - She didn't like that she wasn't getting her picture taken. ;)

My doc called me today, no stones but my kidney is enlarged so I have to see my urologist next week. I felt so much better today, I'm thinking I had a kidney stone and passed it but who knows. My back pain has come back a little this evening but nothing like yesterday.

I'm feeling her move around and the heart beat was good so that is a relief.

20 Weeks

Well it's the half way mark!!!!! 20 weeks I cant' believe it.

I have really been feeling her move I think she is kicking at times!
Todd got to feel her move yesterday morning, he put his hand on my stomach, and I felt her move but didn't say anything, he said WHOA! :)

I have been sleeping with a pillow in between my legs because my back is starting to hurt me. I'm still going to the bathroom alot, starting to get used it though more.

ITS A GIRL!

We found out on the 17th but kept quiet till Thanksgiving, Cole shared the news with my family, went around the table and everybody said what they were thankful for, Cole was last and said I'm thankful for my family and my new little sister!, my niece Lauren said you don't know that it's a girl, Sarah hasn't found out yet, I had to fill her in that he was right and we did know :)

The ultrasound went good, she was breech but the tech said she has plenty of time to flip around. She was 12 cm long from crown to rump, and heartbeat 153. Everything looked really good. She got lots of pics, cuz the lil one was really moving around. We even got to see her open and close her mouth. Todd was happy to have his little girl, and even Cole is excited to have a little sister :)

I have really been feeling her move about 10:00 everynight she gets moving around in there :) Still feeling great, and such a great feeling to feel her move around.
