To cut...

So I posted earlier the possiblity of having a C Section...

We have one scheduled for Thursday at 6 am!

Here comes baby!!!

To cut or not to cut...

That is the big question this week.
Things have been getting hectic due to the season as I am sure you all are going through right now. But today we had another doctors appointment. He is getting a little worried because I am making NO progress in the past 4 weeks. Still one CM dilated, my cervix isn't thinning out at all, and the baby isn't dropping.
So we are leaning towards a C Section. If we decided its something we want to do, then we will have it by the end of this week.

Other then that there isn't much to post about until we hear different :)

Still!?!?!

Hey Everyone!
I had another doctors appointment today. Yay me! I am still 1 cm dilated and my water hasn't broke. :(

We have another appointment in a week. So we will see where we go from there.
They wont induce me like I wanted. Considering his due date and some family/personal reasons, because a lot of the time induction doesn't work when it is your first pregnancy. I would have to have a C Section and I really don't want one of those. They scare me. Hell, any type of surgery scares me. So unless we aboslutly have to have a C Section, we will be waiting till Aiden decided he wants to come out.

Well I know its not much but thats all we have for today! Check back Monday after 10 am! Lol

Warning: If pregnant do not play this game!

There should be a warning on the game apples to apples saying pregnant woman are NOT aloud to play due to long periods of uncontrollable laughing may cause you to think you're going into labor!

My family celebrated Thanksgiving early due to my dads job. Well after dinner we decided to play a game called apples to apples. I highly recomend it to anyone with any sort of sence of humor! It is an amazing game. But I laughed so hard I thought I was going into labor!

What a night! lol

We see the doctor Monday November 24th to be told again that we will see him the next week. Only 5 weeks to go!

We are also having a baby shower for those of you who are close and read this. December 7th at my friend Amanda's house. E-mail me and let me know if you want to come or not. I will post my baby registries on here as well for those of you who have asked because you are so far away. I made two because most of the stuff I want is on Walmart.com but there is a lot on Babies R Us that I want as well. lol

"See me next week!"

Hey Everyone!

Today I had another doctors appointment. I mentioned before from here on out we are going to see the doctor once a week. He tells me "Yup theres the baby, Nope you're not dialated, and we will see you net week!" And thats about the just of my appointment.

Now we play the waiting game. Hopefully he will wait until after Thanksgiving when my dad is home again. I'd hate to have him and my dad be gone and not able to see his grandson.

Well Thats all for now. As more happens I will let you all know :)

Well the time is here

And we are in the home stretch folks! Only 6 weeks (41 days to be exact) till he is due!
I had a doctors appointment today that went really well. We are both perfect! He is growing just fine, I'm perfect weight, size and so on. I am up to a visit once a week and now we just wait. He could come as early as the 11th or as late as the 8th. We shall see :)

I'm hoping to post more pictures soon. I had a bit of a problem with my camera but that is all fixed.

Some of the family out there has asked about Thanksgiving and Christmas and I am sorry to inform you, my family here isn't celebrating the way everyone else is. Due to my dad's job we will be celebrating Thanksgiving this upcoming Wensday and we wont celebrate Christmas until the 3rd or 4th of Janurary. So, as for coming here or us going anywhere (farther then a drive because I can't fly) That isn't going to happen this year.

I hope you all enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday!!

Here Kitty Kitty Kitty


Hey Everyone! I guess this isn't really about our "family" as in me will or aiden but about our cat Sampson. He has this bad infection is his eye. Today I'm taking him to the vet to see what is wrong. I hope its nothing serious. My mom says its just a cold or a scratch but I'd rather be safe then sorry. Wish me and him luck. He is very old and it worrys me so much to see him sick. I'm afraid they'll put him down. Though I suppose if he is suffering its for the best.


Sampson

We had a doctors appointment on the 30th that I forgot to post about. Me and Aiden are doing fine besides I seemed to have gaine
d a lot of weight very quickly. I had been drinking a TON of soda. I know, I know, tisk tisk shame on me, but I wanted it so bad. Well I cut out soda and made sure I was eating healthy and everything and ended up loseing 13 lbs in a week. I don't know if thats a good thing but those I have talked to about it have said I was just retaining a TON of water due to the salt in the soda or something like that. Soda is so bad for you but sooo good. :) Our next appointment is on Nov. 13th and we'll see what doctor has to say about the weight loss then.

Wish us all luck :)

Just some thoughts...

I'm sitting here waiting for dinner to be done and earlier Will and I started talking about the military since we got a letter from them today. Will has decided to join the military. The navy to be exact and is planning on leaving for boot camp after Aiden is born. I'm so confused about how I feel about this whole.. thing. I'm worried, I'm scared, I'm... I don't even know! I just know I am going to miss him so much! I'm greatfull because I will have Aiden to keep me busy and hopefully keep my mind off of being away from him for 8 weeks. But so much will change and happen once we begin this journey and honestly I am terrified!

Sometimes I lie in bed and just look at him. Watch him sleep and just take in that image, trying hard to burn it into my retnas or something so I can just close my eyes when hes not here and see him there next to me sleeping. I guess thats what happens when you're in love ya know?

For now,
Shauna

A not so little update

Since we're just getting started I better post everything I have so far in one big post! Things that have happened in the past months that have been big for us and hopefully you as well!

As hopefully all of you know Will and I are living in Nevada and enjoying it for the most part. Living in the middle of a desert that has weather changes about as random as my mood swings gets a little tuff but we're happy here and plan on spending the most time we can here close to family and friends.

Will and I got married on September 13th 2008 in Fallon NV. Luckily it was a beautiful day and it turned out perfect. I have pictures up on photobucket [ http://s468.photobucket.com/albums/rr43/Mrs_Hendrickson/ ] you can check those out if you haven't already and if you weren't there.

We found out late May that I am pregnant and in September found out its with a boy. We decided on the name Aiden James Hendrickson. Aiden being the only name we could really agree on and James being from both my and Will's dads. We are due December 25th and hopefully we will be either a little early or right on time. Can you imagine what it would be like to have your birthday on Christmas!



So far we are seeing the doctor now every two weeks till the beginning of December, then we move to once a week. I can't believe how time had flew just from the day I found out I was pregnant till today. Only two months to go and I'm already ready to be done. But isn't that how it always works?

So, for now thats all we really have until the next doctors appointment or the next "big thing" happens that I should update about

Love
Shauna Will and Aiden

Introduction

Hopefully, if you have stumbled upon this you are a relative of my husband or I's or you are a close friend. If not, enjoy anyhow!

I decided since we have people asking us all the time what is going on with us in our lives and about Aiden and my pregnancy the best thing to do was start posting a blog filled with little updates about out expanding family and our fast changing lives. Not everyone has myspace or facebook, and a lot of you I do not talk to very often due to our schedules, so when I ran across this site I thought it best if I set it up to make sure that everyone gets the chance to check up on us and see how were doing without having to pester with phone calls or e-mails and hope I or Will are around to take or check them.

I plan on filling this little blog with (hopefully) daily updates on my pregnancy, our lives and whatever I feel I need to put in. I'll add pictures when I have them and make sure that nothing important gets left out.

I hope you all find this a little more convenient then hoping we get back to you at some point this century! Enjoy reading up on our changing lives and everything that is going on with us! :)

Love you all

Shauna, Will, and Aiden
