Day 20

We are finally into week 35! Boy am I ready to meet this little girl! Can't believe in 2 weeks she will be considered full term. The nursery just got the final touches and is ready and so are all of us!!

Day 19

I think it's day 19?? I keep losing track!

Got a visit from some cuties tonight!! Power Rangers, Strawberry Shortcake and a cute lobster!!! I love Halloween time!

Day 18 and The Most Wonderful Baby Shower!!!

My mom and SIL Kari went above and beyond and gave Miss Cadence and I the best baby shower we could ever ask for. I was smiling ear to ear the entire day. I enjoyed seeing all our friends and family and their wondeful generous gifts!! We are beyond blessed!! It is just beyond words how happy I am right now!!

Day 15,16,17

Not much going on the last 3 days but resting and getting excited for the shower!!

Day 14

Just spending lots of love time with my fur babies. Got the flu shot (since work makes us now and dr recommended it) even though I know it makes me really sick so lots of napping from my body aches and fever. Oh and btw Im 28 today! Yay for a flu spent birthday!

Day 13

Cadence was "Happy" today per the non-stress test! I got a flu shot and some blood work to make sure Im not developing HELLP Syndrome. All labs were good and BP was down! Dr seems happy with how things are going and it appears my "crappy" feeling is just the end of pregnancy feeling. I am having major urges to organize my house! So I am doing it all on paper and gonna ask Dr if I can do some things in short spurts since everything is doing better. Hope you all are having a good Monday!

Day 9,10,11,12

Did I really miss 4 days?? Im in a time warp on my couch/bed!! Been having some rough days with my BP going back up and more frequent strong contractions. My new goal is to make it to next week for my shower. Mom and Kari have worked so hard I would hate to miss it! My SIL is keeping me in the loop with my cutie nephews by pictures and visits. Makes my day brighter. Lots of bonding with Cadence and fur babies

Day 8

Im really enjoying getting to bond with C and getting some relaxation in before she gets here! I can't help but to go into Cadence's room when I get up to stretch :). i just want to see her in all these clothes! I just think care seats are the cutest so had to take a pic!

Day 7

Wow a week under our belt!! One week closer to my baby!!

My mom is a saint! I don't know what i would do without her! I just hope I can be a momma like her. She did all our laundry and made meals for everyday this week! Plus kept me company last night :)

Serenity loves Grandma and is always in her business!

Day 6

Things I can't wait to eat or drink after C gets here:

Sushi and lots of it!!!

Starbucks Frappucinos

Jimmy Johns Italian Night Club

And maybe a margarita!

Day 6 photos

Day 5

Thank goodness for football, facebook, blogger, pinterest, songpop, words with friends, halloween movies and any other activity that can rot my brain while on bedrest :)

Day 4

My dad came over to visit today and brought lunch. mmmm it was so good. He brought Humeys BBQ. People visiting makes the days go by so much better :). The cats are keeping me company too!

My nephews and brother and SIL came to visit too.

Day 3

Cadence passed her "happy test today"!! No scares this time so Dr said keep doing what your doing (not doing) :).

My buddy is loving me being home all the time! My nose is widening so much! I hear it goes back to normal after baby. Lets hope!!

Day 2 of Bedrest

Lots of organizing going on here!! Good thing I have cute little furbabies like Esme to keep me company!!

Day 1 of Bedrest

I kind of knew this was coming but was hoping to make it just a little bit longer. But when it comes to Cadence's health I will do anything!!

My BP has been in the 160's/90's and 100's in the afternoon evenings, especially after work. This is NOT good for me or baby. During the days it goes back to 140's sometimes I am lucky to get into 130's. A non pregnant person I wouldn't worry too much about some of these numbers but what i have learned that in pregnancy it is all about blood flow to the baby and hypertension hinders that.

After a little scare with Cadence's Heartrate and movement yesterday I am now on bedrest and will be going to the Dr twice a week to check on her.

So I have decided to embrace this time to bond more with her and relax because when she finally gets here I will wish i was on bedrest LOL :)

Oh and my amazing co-workers threw me a baby shower! One day before my bedrest. Dang they are good! Cady is so spoiled already!

Happy Saturday!

Not alot going on around here other than resting. My BP is still up, but trying to continue to work so all my time at home is spent with my feet up (my massive marshmallow feet!).

Cadence has been passing all her tests each week with flying colors, wednesday was a non stress test, it was so nice to lay back in a recliner and just listen to her heartbeat and her move all around.

I am definitely feeling as if she is running outta room in there!! Sleeping and breathing are quit tricky right now! Even though she has dropped I am outta breath in no time.

It's getting closer!! #32weeks

My best friend Sandy just took our maternity pictures and I love them so much. You should totally check them out and LIKE her on facebook if you haven't already.
