Things are swell at this Taylor household. My dad and Blair have been working on the basement every weekend. I need to take some pictures this week and post the progress. They are ready to start the drywall...so we'll see if how much they get accomplished this weekend! I think my 'nesting' is kicking in and I want to start the baby's room, but I can do that until the new spare bedroom is finished. Of course I want everything all cleaned including the walls, windows, and carpets! I want this house to be clean as a whistle when that little man arrives...ha..we'll see how that goes!
As far as the pregnancy, everything is going just fine. We did have a little scare yesterday morning. We were getting ready for school and just about ready to walk out the door when all the sudden I got these terrible pains in my upper abdomen that were shooting to my back. They literally dropped me to the floor and I was sweating uncontrollably! The tears were just pouring! I called my school and said I'd be late...and made a call to my Dr. She ended up being in surgery and her nurse told me to go to the ER and they'd send me up to the OB. As soon as we got there, they hooked me up to monitors. The baby was fine...no stress. I had assumed everything was fine with him because the pain didn't feel like it was in my uterus, and nothing like contractions/cramping.
They did an ultrasound and lab work and didn't come to any conclusions. The only thing that might be possible is gall bladder but the doctor didn't test this because I guess for this particular scan I would need to fast...
Anyways...we went home at about 3:00 and I crashed for a couple hours and then went to bed early too. I was wiped out!
I'm feeling better today, but still dragging.
I thanked God last night that it wasn't anything serious and that Baby is ok. It's a little frustrating not knowing what caused that 'attack'! Probably the most pain I've ever experienced!
The ultrasound showed that baby weighs 2 lbs 9 ozs. The new estimated due date is January 5th..but the Dr. didn't make any official changes! He's a growing boy!
Baby Taylor is officially named! Daddy picked out his name letters to paint for his room last week at Hobby Lobby! I told Blair- this must mean its official!
We hit the 28 week mark! It's going quickly!
Have a great rest of the week everyone! Thanks for reading!
