update extravaganza:beach,dirt bikes, easter, bad baby appt.

Easter
Dirt bike riding trip
Backwards of course-what do you expect from me?! but riley was passed out before we were done loading the truck! We know she is really out when her pacifier slips out!On a little ride with mommy
All ready to go!
She loved zippin' around with dad!
Oh ya, her own quad and everything!
So happy to be with uncle taylor!
Beach trip with cousin hailey!
This was cousin hailey's first time to the beach and she LOVED it. she would get mad and cry when her mom put her on a towell...she wanted to be in the sand and near the water!
Learning how to collect sea shells
silly girl!
Her first feel of sand and water...look at the smile!
This was supposed to be for hailey but she didn't like it...riley LOVED it because she could touch the ground and walk all around in the water without losing balance and falling in on her face...she was in this the entire time basically just wandering around.
Baby News
I had my second obgyn appointment this week. Sad to say only TWO good things came of it. I got my actual real due date (the dr was able to decide based on the ultra sound) and from that he was able to tell me exactly how far along i am. My due date is October 12th and that puts me at 14 weeks and 6 days today (4/18/09) So the bad news i received. I have placenta previa...my placenta is resting over my cervix instead of being attached to the uterus wall. I didn't think to ask if it was a complete plancenta previa or just marginal...i was fighting a fever, no sleep, a little shock from the news and pregnancy hormones...he said there is only 5% chance the placenta won't move to the correct spot by the time i deliver, which would result in c-section. So that means there is a 95% chance everything will be JUST FINE! I'm trying to keep this in mind. The dr. didnt' seemed concerned about it at all, i'm supposed to contact him immediatly if i have any bleeding, but other than that he didnt give any special instructions and i wasn't thinking quick enough to ask any questions. so when i got home i looked it up online and tried to refresh what i knew from nursing school. I think it's much more concerning of a situation than he is acting...but i'll just have to take it one day at a time. I just wish there was something i could do to help it like stand on my head a few times a day to ensure it moves! i know a c-section is not the end of the world, but having a regular delivery is amazing, and to miss that opportunity would be heart breaking to me. Then the second bad thing that happened-keep in mind i was feverish, tired, hormonal-the dr was listening for the heart beat and couldn't find it at first, it seemed like forever and i was starting to get realllyyyy nervous...he finally found it and made some DUMB comment "oh, haha i thought i was going to send you to redlands community to get an ultrasound right now" ya NOT FUNNY. my dr is not on my good side right now...he is a nice guy and he was recommended from the obgyn i had with riley but because of insurance could not have again this time...but he is just not the type of guy that is easily concerned and i dont like that! anyway. I suppose everything is fine for now. Just a little update!

  1. Those 2 girls are adorable. I think Riley looks so much like Josh, especially when she smiles. She is a doll. Hope things go well for the rest of your pregnancy.

  2. I love Riley's dress, so muchin fact I bought it for my girls.... ha ha.
    Who is your new doc? I had to switch this time too, I was so sad. I like my new doc, I don't think he's overly friendly or anything... totally straight to the point, no funny business.

  3. Your little vacation pictures are adorable! How fun that Riley and Haley can play together. Try not to worry so much about a c-section. Remember you got to have one vaginally and so you did get to experience it- some of us (like probably me) don't even get that! I hope that you are feeling better and over all that fever stuff now!

  6. I love the pictures of the 2 girls. What fun!! So many more little Fishers will be running around soon. Just relax and everything will be just fine. c-sections sound worse then they are.

  7. Ok so you freaked me out by your title Bad Baby Appt but it is not as bad as I was expecting after reading that you stinker! I am sure it is worse to you though!
    Ok first, I LOVE all the riding pictures and I LOVE that you already have a quad for her, that is so stinkin cool! Even riding gear that rocks!
    The beach looks like it was fun and your little girl is seriously SO CUTE!
    The Dr's Appointment, I would assume that you have partial plecentia previa if he said there is only a 5% chance that it will not move so I would not worry too much, especially because this is really early to know that. As soon as you start getting bigger it will move and if it doesn't your baby will still be ok and that is all that matters right? And the heartbeat thing would have KILLED me too but I am SO GLAD that they found it. Now what is Riley's Birthday? They are going to be almost EXACTLY 2 years apart huh?

  9. Riley looks so cute, you are a really good photographer, love the picture with her "being silly" and I am so so sorry about your bad drs appt. I am sure that everything will be ok. I am going to have to call you this week because I want some more details. Was that Dr Hage that was saying that stuff?

  12. Rile cracks me up. She is a funny little girl. I can't wait to see you and her again...she is just such a big girl now! Oh yeah, Makenna has that dress too...It's a cute one!
    I guess October babies are your thing. And try not to stress. I know that is easier said than done. But if there was real reason to be concerned, your doctor would have told you. It he is acting relaxed, I am sure you and the 'beast' will be just fine.
    Hang in there and feel better!

  13. Hey Jessica! Yes, I am due September 17th. I guess it may move since my ultrasound this week, but we'll see. I've been pretty sure of the due date all along. Is Dr. Hage your doctor? I'm so surprised if he is and you are not liking him because I love him! I guess it all depends on his mood and ours, huh? I know everything will go great!

  17. Riley is adorable! Congrats on your pregnancy! And I'm so sorry to hear about your plecentia previa:( My best friend had it her whole pregnancy, she was put on minor bed rest the whole time. So just take is easy...things could change the more you rest the better it will be. Good luck :)
