Elizas Pregnancy was so easy compare to Brighams. Except for all the morning sickness, and nausea. I found out i was pregnant while at work. I know that is weird but Jp and I had been trying with no results. At that time, I was always tired i would get home from work and sleep, and that was no normal. I knew something was up. So i decided i was going to test. I didn't want to test and get another negative. After dropping Brigham of at his babysitters I stopped at walmart and got the $.88 test. During my lunch I tested in the bathroom, I waited my 2 minutes. and before i knew it two little lines appeared. I was so excited, nervous, scared. I went into one of my closest friends and co-workers classroom and i told her. We sat there and talked about it. Then i went back to my classroom and called JP. At first he didnt believe me so i had to text him a picture of my test. We were again going to be parents. WE WOULD HAVE TWO KIDS!!!!!!
I was Due July 4th 2015....I was hoping...no no no no i was determined to have this baby before my due date. Sadly no matter how hard i tried it didnt happen.
On July 4th I started having irregular contractions. They would be a minute apart and the 10 minutes apart. It was so frustrating i went all day with contractions, yet nothing. I fell asleep and woke up Sunday morning having contraction every two hours. I was so upset, I bounced on the exercise ball i ate spicy food and nothing this little girl was stubborn and she was going to try my patience. On July 6th around 3 AM i was up having contractions about two minutes apart nothing was happening. After an hour of contractions with nothing happening i went back to sleep. Now many pregnant women go to the bathroom alot. So i was waking up and going to the bathroom thinking everything was normal. Brigham woke up i made him breakfast, we went to Target and the Library, Every time i would move a bunch of liquid would come out....i never thought it could be my water. On the way home i got a feeling i should call my OB. I did and explained what was happening...He told me to head to the hospital, that they would check to see if it was amniotic fluid. I called my doctor around 10 AM. I called my husband around 11 and told him what was happening that i would wait for him so we could go to the hospital together. Keep in mind i was having irregular contraction still. I called my mom and she wanted me to head to the hospital right there and then but i wanted to wait for Jp. By the time Jp got home Brig and i were in the car. We drove to my moms picked her up and left Brig there. When we got to the hospital i was in no pain they sent me to the triage We got there about 2:30 PM, i got checked i was at a 3. and there was literally no liquid coming out of me. They let me walk for an hour to try to get more liquid. while i was walking my contractions were coming every 2-3 minutes. When the hour passed i went back to triage and made a puddle for them. Yupp my water was leaking... It broke around 3 AM with out me knowing. Since my water broke i was admitted and i was gonna have the baby. I continued to walked and while walking i ate ice chips. Eventually the contractions were too painful i got my epidural. My epidural helped me dilate faster, I apparently dont dilate when i am in pain. I felt pressure every time i had a contraction, It was nice because i could feel them and there was no pain. at around 11:50 PM i kept telling my nurse i need to push so she checked me i was at a 10 she set up the room and we did a practice push but i had to stop because our little girl was coming out. My doctor came in at around midnight, four pushes later Eliza Jane Beall was born.
She weight 8 pounds 11 ounces and was 20 3/4 inches long.
Now that i am a mom of two it seems like there is never time. Eliza cries ALOT nothing calms her down. Sometimes it feels like they have crying competition to see who can cry the longest. Brigham loves his sister so much. He defends her and kisses her and protects her.
Its almost been two months since this little girl joined our family and i can honestly say she fits right in we love our little Eliza Jane
