Update

I started!! So no new baby on the way :( I have been trying since Oct 09 so, I am going to the DR Sept 1st. Hopefully they will have some good news for me and maybe I just really have bad timing when it comes to figuring out my cycle. If anyone has some advise for me on a better way to track my cycle. Thanks, Melinda

An Experince to Share

Well as I put in my previous post I found out that I was pregnant with my son Adrian in April of 2005. I was about 10 wks when they did the first ultrasound and I saw a tiny peanut with little legs kicking and his tiny heart fluttering, I cried. We got pictures of "the baby" that day and showed them to everyone!! I had my other appointments at the Naval Hospital where the Tricare OB is and everytime I saw a different DR. Once i swear I even had an Asian DR like the nightmare DR in Knocked Up. LOL. Well along comes July 20th 2005 My next ultrasound, where we were to find out if we were having a boy or girl, it was my grandma Linkers birthday (she died when my mom was 6 months pregnant with me) so if it was a girl I was going to name her Grace Elizabeth (which is still my #1 name if I have a girl) BUT to my dismay (only at the moment) they said its a BOY! I cried and my mom left the room Glen (Adrians dad) was so excited and his mom, who was there as well, was also excited. Well we left and the whole rest of that day I repeated when asked what it was "Stupid little penis" but after that I was actually pretty happy to have a boy on the way. I wrote down every little thing that happened in a scrapbook for him which I constantly update, with pictures of everything from something with him to our family having babies.
Well his due date was December 5th 2005 (Aleacia Hitchcocks birthday!) but he decided that was too long at 2:45am dec 1st my water broke, and then they let me sit for 27 hours before telling me that I was going to have to have a C Section. Couple of reasons, i was pushing with all my might and nothing was happening. He was sunny side up and my pelvic bone did not open up enough for him to get through. :( well he was born at 5: 17 am December 2nd (my Auntie Claire's birthday, R.I.P.) she was so excited her and my dad had a bet going his birthday is the 9th and wanted him to wait until then. Well thats that.
AFTER I could not hold him with the c section pain coming through the meds, I WANTED to breastfeed him and when i asked what to do the nurses said roll on your side, HELLO I just had a csection i couldn't move!! I asked will someone come help me roll over she said NO figure it out yourself..so my poor baby got formula :( I was so upset.....and it just got worse from there....

a little confused

Its been a while, but I am here to post again. Lets go back to July, my period came a week late and then it was not normal for me. This month according to everything I've checked I should have started around the 1st of August and have yet to BUT when I take a HPT it comes back NEG.
Lets go back 5 years to April 2005, when I found out I was having Adrian. I was 3 weeks past my period start date when I finally took a HPT. I want to make a DRs appt to talk to my dr about this but at the same time if my period is just messed up for some reason I do not want to look stupid.
I am going to post the results as I find out more of what is going on.

The Start

Not sure if anyone is really interested in reading a blog about my life, but its nice to have somewhere to put things i would like to remember. I have a son Adrian Hard who was born December 2nd 2005 he is great, a high energy fun loving child who had his bad moments but then he also has his moments where he can just look at you with those bright brown eyes of his and just melt your heart. Really life would not be what it is without him. True I had him young but I would not change it. I am married now to a great guy Matthew Elliott, we met August 29th 2008 and something was just right about it in December 2008 he asked me to marry him and August 22nd 2009 we were married in Chesapeake VA. I gained a brother in law who is about to get married in October to Ashley who is a great friend she also has a son the same age as Adrian. I love my parents so much they have given me a lot in this life and have helped out so much, when I have needed them they are always there. I have 3 sisters Donna who is 23 and in the Air Force she is currently deployed pray for her and all troops deployed to keep this country free. Barbara and Alicia who are both 20 almost 21 yes thats right TWINS. lol, they are as different as can be though, one is girlie and the other a tomboy who now rides a motorcycle and is taking auto mechanics in school. Barb is trying to get into modeling hope it goes well. Now that you know a bit about my family...I'll tell ya a blurb about me. I am 25 went to school for Medical Assisting but am now after 2.5yrs of working in the medical field a stay at home mom who has just started selling Premier Designs Jewelry. I want more children 2 or 3 and really want to home school all of my children.
I will write again soon. Love you Melinda
