On January 30th 2009 at 5:49am baby Shaunna Arella was born into this world. She weighed 5lbs 1oz and was 17 1/2 inches long. Our baby girl grew her angel wings a little later at 8:24am. I miss her terribly and cant wait until they day I get to meet her again.
July 1st* First POSTIVE pregnancy test!
July 2nd* Two more to confirm it...IM PREGNANT!
August 14th* First doctor app. w/ Dr.Montowski.........filed out paperwork.
August 25th* Switched doctors to Dr.Hume, had blood work done, a pap, and listened for heartbeat...It was a strong 150!!
September 16th* Monthly checkup w/ Dr.Hume..Heartbeat 156
October 9th* Anatomy U/S 3PM...took longer than usual, it was hard to see things, and something didnt seem right. I was told to schedule an imediate conference w/ my doctor to review the scan. Heartbeat was 155.
October 10th* Doctor App. 9AM..... DrHumetold us that I have no amniotic fluid, and there are multiple cysts on the kindeys. We were reffered to a speacilist.
October 13th* Another U/S and consult with Dr.Sigmond(specialist) No amnniotic fluid and multiple cysts on the kidneys were diagnosted once again, along with what they thought they could see as brain problems. We have been given 2 choices, disruption of the preganncy or to put it in Gods hands. We have chosen the second. Heartbeat was 153.
November 17th* Another U/S and consult with Dr.Sigmond. Baby is measuring right on track with weight, but that is mostly due to the cysts on the kidneys that are weighing almost a pound. The limbs are measuring small for the gestational age, and the heart has become enlarged due to its hard work. The chances of Bug making it to my induction date have been increased to 60%. Dr.Sigmond reffered us to a high risk pregnancy doctor that specializes in delivery. We will meet with her next month. HB was 135. (down a little which scared us.)
November 25th* Doctoc App w/ regular OB @ 9:30am. HB was up again at 155. That was good news! I have gained 10 lbs so far. My blood pressure was down a little bit though, but she said nothing to worry about.
December 9th* Doctor Hume App. HB 152!!! Yay.
December 16th* Doctor app w/ new doctor. We dont really like him, but I think we are going to stay with him. Found out some new information. I have a partial placenta previa that showed up in the last u/s that we werent told about, and the test for spina bifida came back positive. Bugs heartbeat was at 150.
December 23rd* Bugs hb was 150 again! Blood sugar levels were great!
Update* Nothing is new really, have had doctors app every 2 weeks since December, and Bugs hb hasnt been any lower than 130. We still havent been able to get an induction date yet, although it will be around 36 weeks. We are hoping to find out more at our next u/s on the 30th! Along with my maternity pictures

I'm sorry to hear you guys broke up. I can't imagine how hard it had to be for you and still is. Thats exciting about your AA though! I got mine in 2007 and got almost 2 semesters done on my bachelors before I got preggo and was so sick. But the Navy is going to help pay for college so I can finish when I'm ready. Right now I'm still perfectly content being a stay at home mom, especially with all the issues we're still having with Bella.
I will definitely keep you updated on her situation. Make sure you say hi once in awhile, I'm always glad to hear from you. Take care of yourself!
