The Sweetest Sound

I decided to upload this video of Genesis heart beat and in the video you will hear a lot of swishing which is her moving around :)

Knitted by HIS hands

Yesterday my prenatal appointment went well although my nurse was worried about fetal movement. It was around 1:45 pm and I had not felt any movement that day but as soon as I told her I haven't been feeling any movement I felt a kick. My doctor wanted to monitor the baby for about 20-30 minutes. She kicked and swished around the entire time although I couldn't feel all of them it made me so happy to hear active she was. My doctor felt that she was doing well but noticed I had a few contractions so he decided to check and make sure I wasn't dilating. After the exam he was happy to let me know that I have not dilated any, but he wanted to perform another test.. fetal fibronectin test. I was told that if it is negative it means that I am unlikely to go into preterm labor but if it comes back positives it really doesn't tell us anything because I still may go full term and 70-80% of women go full term after testing positive for the fetal fibronectin. I was sure I would come back negative but I found out I was wrong after I received a phone call today from my doctor. I must say I am really not worried at all. I'll be 31 weeks tomorrow and I'm feeling really good. I have not experienced any pain other than pelvic pain; which I must say can be verrrry painful. I will keep praying that GOD continues to watch over Genesis and she will be a happy and healthy baby.

Lately I have been thinking about her constantly.. who will she look like, who's nose, who's eyes, who's toes she is going to have? I am hoping my husbands he has eye lashes like a elephant they are so long, thick and black they are just gorgeous to me. I also have been thinking about the D-Day. How will it be ? Will it go smoothly, Will I end up getting a epidural after planning to go natural? GOD!!! I just can't wait to hold her in my arms, kiss her and tell her how much her mommy and daddy love her and she is a blessing from GOD. Until that special day I can only imagine about the beautiful gift GOD has given me. I feel so blessed... so wonderfully blessed. This little being knitted in my womb by HIS hands! Just the thought of it amazes me.

Since My Last Post......

ince my last post the baby has been moving actually I started to feel movement that same day but still not as vigorous but she is definitely moving. I'm guessing since she is getting bigger she does not have as much room to wiggle and that's the reason why. I feel more of the movement towards my back than the front which is why I haven't posted any videos of her rumbling and tumbling. Over the last couple of weeks I noticed that she tends to stay on one side which you can see in the first picture I posted.



I plan on going to Belly Views later on this month to get an 4-D ultra-sound done and get it on DVD and they even give you colored and black and white pictures to keep. I was thinking I could have this done at the doctors office but I don't think that they will go into depth or perform the ultra-sound as long as Baby Views which I think is 10-20 minutes. It cost 230.00 which is close to what I pay at the doctors office. I am soooo excited I can't wait to have it done!


My next appointment is in a couple of weeks and I'm excited as always after this appointment I will be going every two weeks.
