Boy? or Girl?

Well today is the big day we find out what we are having is the trend going to continue or will it finally break?
Kenzie wants another sister and Braxton wants a baby brother. Tyler thinks it will be a boy amongst others as well. Part of me thinks its a girl but it will probably be a boy. I was never good at the feeling of what I was having.

Well we went to the Dr's and right at the beginning they showed us the legs and the bottom of the baby and you could tell that something was missing. IT'S A GIRL!Yep that's right the trend has been broken, its another girl! Braxton was pretty sad but I no he will love her just as much as his other sister's. He told Tyler that we need to have another baby so he can have a little brother. But Tyler wants this to be the last one. We will see, I'm not getting my tubes tied if that's what your thinking. We are excited about having another baby in the house. It will be a lot of work but they are so worth it. I love all my kids even when they drive me crazy!!!

17 Week check up

Yesterday I had my 17 week check up. I can not believe that I am already 17 weeks along, it has gone by super fast. I don't no if it is because I have an 11 month old baby so I am used to being pregnant lol or what but it is just flying by. I have an appt on march 29th to see the gender of the baby. and then they will make an an appt for a fetal echo to check the babies heart to make sure the baby has a healthy heart. Tyler thinks its going to be a boy! What do you think? The trend so far is girl, boy, girl, boy, girl. So we shall wait and see if it continues, or if the trend is broken and its another girl.
My appt went well yeah for a good appt. I gained 3 lbs in a month weighing in at 105 lbs. The babies heart beat sounds good and growing well. 

Why can't all pregnancies be the same?

This pregnancy has defiantly been a nerve racking one for sure. I wish all pregnancies were the same so you would no what to expect.
 A couple of weeks ago I started having heart palpitations. I mean strong ones it was hard for me to sleep I had to sleep on my back, (which is hard enough for me when I'm pregnant anyways). It felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest that's how bad it was and it was happening every few minutes all day every day. So I finally called my OB on Feb 27th since it has been happening for a week to see if it was normal during pregnancy because it has never happened with my other pregnancies. I did have them a few years back but the cardiologist said I was fine and normal healthy people can have them some are just more sensitive to them then others. But since I am pregnant it scared me even more. So my Dr. told me to go see a cardiologist cause how often I was having the episodes was not the norm for pregnant women.
Then on Saturday we were watching t.v and I got up and my heart started racing, my left hand and arm was tingling and I was scared I did not want to have a heart attack. So Tyler took me to the emergency room that night. They gave me an I.V fluid, did some blood work to see if I was anemic, or had thyroid problems and a few others but I don't remember what. They also did an EKG and it showed that I was in sinus Tachycardia but of course no palpitations. The results came back and everything looked good so they decided to let me go home considering I had a cardiology appointment on Monday.
Monday came and again I wasn't having very strong or consistent palpitations but the cardiologist wanted me to wear a 24 hr halter monitor to see if they could catch them. (Now I know how Kenzie felt when she had to wear them annoying. The funny thing is, which seems to happen when you complain about something then get it check out it stops doing what it was doing).  He also wanted a follow up echo the next week.
Today I had my echo and my heart looked perfect. The halter did show signs of the palpitations but it was at the top part of my heart which wasn't very concerning to him. So I am happy to say no symptoms of palpitations since after the halter and my heart looks healthy. He just wants to see me after the baby is born to make sure it still looks nice and healthy.  Now to continue to pray that the baby is growing happy and healthy.
What a roller coaster!!!

My babies 11 months!!!

Time has just flown by with Myleigh. It has been such a fun ride with her she consistently is always smiling. I am having a hard time with her turning one for some reason though. I'm not sure why! I'm not ready for her to grow up I see my other kids and time has just flown by with them and it makes me sad. But I sure do love all their achievements and accomplishments that I am able to enjoy with them.
Myleigh loves the fact that she can walk holding things now that she is super good at it. She will now hold on to your fingers and kind of walk with you until she realizes that crawling is much faster. Silly girl. She is finally cutting her first tooth but doing very well with it. I didn't even no it was coming in until she bit me haha.
She still isn't sleeping through the night she wakes up at least once or twice to feed but she absolutely loves to snuggle daddy at night. She is defiantly a daddy's girl and gets so excited when daddy comes home from work.
She always wants to be involved with her brothers and sisters she wants to be big just like them and loves playing with them. There is going to be no stopping her when she starts to walk, I'm thinking a gate for our front door when summer comes.
Life with out her wouldn't be the same she completes this family just as well as the rest of my kids. I am so thankful to call her mine.
