It's a BOY!!!! He has arrived 12/10/13 8lbs 13oz

He is here!
My son.  My beautiful, perfect baby boy.    I haven't updated this blog since July.  My apologies.   I had a yucky pregnancy.  I was sick a lot, I was hurting a lot.   I just felt like crap.  I was dealing with the usual bull crap from my job, and then dealing with the pregnancy and my hormones of being an evil crazy pregnant woman!   But he is here.   I'm so happy,   I don't think I've been this happy in a long time.   The girls are so helpful, and at times, maybe they are too helpful.  But they back away and give us the space we need.   Desmond(daddy) seems to be on cloud 9. He is so happy too!    I feel like my family, my life is now complete.   Not that I felt like something was lacking something before Lil Desmond, it's just now I feel like I have everything that I needed to complete my family.  
            I'll take the next couple of days to post pictures from my entire pregnancy since I had quit blogging in July. I'll leave you with a picture of my beautiful family.

I just want my energy back!

I'm 8 weeks pregnant today.   And I'm still exhausted as I was 2 weeks ago.    I'm constantly queezy and I just want to come home from work and sleep.    I hate that because I'm a control freak,  because I like to clean and make sure all is all and all is in order.  But right now,  I just can't  UGH!!

Dr appt is Wednesday.
Since I had gestational diabetes with Jamey.  I have to have some little extra test this week.  Woo hoo for me.    But I do get another ultrasound.

Oh...and I'm crate training our new dog.  Which by the way....SUCKS

Can't sleep

Tonight,  I'm emotional.   I know, shocker.  My oldest daughter is spending the night away from home.  And while she is spending the night with someone I trust, I just wish she was home.   And for some reason lately. I have been unable to relax when we are all not home.    Weird I know.:'(

Pictures at 6 weeks of pregnancy

Here are some pictures from my six weeks

Jasmine and the chess club

Hey Yall.   Today I'm so annoyed.  My middle daughter Jas has chess club in the mornings on Friday.  She has to be in by 7:40am.  It starts at 7:30am.   if your not in by 7:40am, the door is pretty much shut in your face.  So now I'm thinking about her today.  She tried so hard to get up this morning and get up on time to go.  So I know she was crushed....
Just thinking about her....

Ultrasound Picture #1 April 24th,2013

Well there it is...little, I know.    But it's there.   We even saw the heartbeat.   I feel so blessed.  And I hope you can all stand in agreement with me right now that this will be a healthy pregnancy, and healthy baby.   I'm in love already.  #Expecting #KnockedUP #Beautiful

God choose me.

My first Dr Appointment.....I'm sorry what?!!

Hey ya'll!
SAY WHAT???? ONLY 6 WEEKS!!!
    So today was my first Dr appointment with this pregnancy.   I have to say I was nervous.   It's weird.   When I was 19 years old and knocked up by my boyfriend,  I didn't have a care in the world.    But now here I am 31 years old, married, happy, and all that good stuff,  and I was sitting in the parking lot with bubble guts.     My appointment was for 11am.  But I had to be there at 10:45am to fill out new paperwork. They had me back there before I even started my paperwork.  Good sign already with this new Dr.   So, I go to the back,  pee in a cup (I guess to confirm this pregnancy).  They took me to weigh me, get some information, then to another room where I met the first dr (You will see them all).   She was a midwife and she was incredibly nice.   A little too much perfume for my liking....But she was really nice.   I asked such mature questions.. 1. Could I have a vaginal birth after 3 c-sections? 2. Would I get gestational diabetes, because I had it last time with Jamey. 3.   Does my husband get morning sickness too, or is he crazy.

The answer to my questions.
1. No, I can't have a vaginal
2. Yes the possibility for gestational again.
3. Yes, men can actually have sympathy pains (sad face). I love him

Desmond was not going to be able to make it because he had class today,  but he texted me while talking to the Dr. and said he was going to try to make it.   So I told the midwife.   She put me in the ultrasound room to wait, and they were so incredibly nice...we waited for Desmond who got there REALLY quick!
We did a vaginal ultrasound, because of my last missed period,  I thought I was at 8 weeks.  Well,  the ultrasound confirmed that I was NOT 8 weeks,  but 6 weeks and 1 day.  We got to see the heartbeat, and it was amazing.  Desmond looked so freaking happy!!!!  It was a great appointment.  With a great Dr and Ultrasound TECH!!!

Next appointment is May 8th at 2:20pm.   I will be having THE works.   Ladies...you know the works.    I will also go ahead and take a gestational diabete test because of my past.... Wish me luck!!!

It's Positive +

Hey Ya'll!
I'm Jessica.  And this is is my blog.
This will be my blog about my pregnancy while pregnant, being a mom to 3, a wife, a full time employee, and trying NOT to go crazy!!!

On April 17th, I found out that I was pregnant with our first child.   My husband and I already have 3 little girls.  11, 9, and 6 years old.  All will go up a year before the baby get's here.  Which will be December 10th.   My due date is December 17th,  but because I have c-sections, it will be December 10th. (They take it 1 week ahead of time).  
         I had an IUD for 6 years, and it was removed on September 11th, 2012.    My husband and I then started trying to baby number 4.   Yes,  we're crazy,  we wanted kids.   I want a big family.  So it is what it is.  After 5 months, of NEGATIVE, NEGATIVE, NEGATIVE pregnancy test,   I was just over it.  It wasn't even fun no more.   So now here we are without even trying.    We're so overly excited.  And while yes,  it would be nice to have a boy for my husband,  we're not going to be devastated if it's not.   We just want a healthy baby.   And the question my husband hates the most is...."What are you going to do if it's a girl"?  Well, we will obviously dispose of the baby.    SMH.    We will still be happy.   A baby is just a wonderful gift from GOD.  and I can't wait. 

So I'll be updating the blog about things going on during the pregnancy, appointments, life in general.
