My Boys

Well, let me give you a little background before I go on and on about my wonderful boys. I have always wanted a big family and on top of that I wanted to be a young mommy. Of course, I didn't want to start having kids when I was like 15 or anything, but lets just say I had my life planned out by the time I was 7!

Now fast forward to May 20058 I got egaged to a wonderful boy young man, and we set a date for July 2, 2006! The rest I will post in a seperate blog. Now after a few months of being married, we started to get the "baby blues" so to speak. We tried for nearly a year but nothing. I went to the doctor and sadly I was having some fertility problems, but my doctor was THE MAN. After one single dose of meds, I took a preggo test and BAM I couldn't believe it - I was pregnant!!!

That was obviously my first pregnancy, and man it wasn't an easy one at all. I would sometimes question what I was thinking wanting to be pregnant so bad. When I was 23 wks preggo, I awoke in the middle of the night to what I thought was heartburn. I tried everything, but it just got worse; I thought I was dieing and so did my poor hubby. After being admitted to the hospital, I soon found out that I had GALLSTONES! I went the whole pregnancy fighting this nasty, nasty problem. Oh did I mention I also found out I had placenta previa and would have to have a C-Setion??? Yeah...on Monday Feb. 18th, 2008 I was admitted once again to labor and delivery for a gallstone attack and on Wednesday Feb. 20th, 2008 they decided to take my baby boy via csection. He was born screaming at 1:30 pm weighing 7lbs 10.5 oz and 21inches long - Maddox Christopher! He was beautiful and BIG for a baby born 3wks early!

Now we are going to fast forward again to Oct. 2008 8 I never would have thought it could be so...I had so much trouble getting preggo with Mado, I was on birth control, and I had a 7.5 mth old baby, AND I WAS PREGNANT AGAIN!!!!

This pregnancy was much easier until around 23wks when baby #2 tried to come out early! I was put on bedrest at 35wks because he still wanted to come out and meet his big brother, mommy, and daddy! Then, 5days later he was here! They gave me an hour warning and they took him via csection weighing 6lbs 6.5oz and was 19 1/4 inches long -

Jakkson (Jakk) Alaxandar. Everyone barely made it. Jakk had to be rushed off to the NICU because he was in respitory destress and his blood sugar was dropping. It was the scariest time in my life...I had no idea what was going on and I was paralyzed - no, literally I was paralyzed from the spinal. I couldn't move my legs therefore I didn't get to see my new little boy for almost half a day :(.

But now...I have two healthy little boys; one of which is a year and a half going on 15 and the other a little porker that you wouldn't have thought was so tiny when he was born!!!
