Early arrival

               So where to start. Since i was last on here we have had a lot going on. We had an amazing Easter with my in laws as always. My nephew came to stay for a weekend because my sister was in the hospital. We had fun having him here and cant wait for that to happen again. Oh yeah and we had our baby girl 3 weeks early!!!!!!! funny thing was is i took a picture of my belly on Easter and 5 days later the night before my little princess popped my water.

              As you can see my stomach dropped and got huge in just a few days and right before she came.

               Now here is the funny story of my early arrival. It was 1130 am and i was napping (like always) and i was getting up to go to meet with my manager to get hours to work until i popped. I noticed my pants were wet. So i called my mother in law to tell her what i thought was happening. While I was on the phone I was packing mine and johns over night bag for the hospital. I told her I was gonna still meet my boss and then call my Dr's. I called my mom and she told me i wasn't stupid and that i knew that my water broke and to just call my Dr's. So i did. I then called my mother in law back and asked her to cancel her hair appointment with my sister in law because i wanted her to bring me to the hospital because if it was a false alarm (which i figured it wasn't) i didn't want to freak my husband out. So as I was waiting for the Dr's to call back i finished packing my overnight bag and putting the car seat in the car. Once we got the call to go to the hospital my mother in law went the wrong way. LOL. When we were driving past my husbands job my mother in law was trying to convince me that she was gonna call john at work to tell him i was in labor. I laughed and said NO. She then told me i wont let her do anything. HAHAHA Love her!!! As we were walking into the hospital John called me. I sent him to voice mail. OOPS. I got the confirmation i was gonna have my little girl and I then called my husband. That conversation went like this:

                           JOHN: Thank you for calling peoples this is John how can i help you?

                           ME: Is this John Berg?

                           JOHN: Yes this is!

                           ME: Hi i need you to do me a favor. I need you to leave and go home, the keys to the car are in the house i need you to grab them, grab the car which has all of our stuff in it and come to the hospital because we are having a baby today, my water broke.

                          JOHN: Wwwwhhhhhaaaaaattttttt? 

                          ME: (repeated what i said before)

                          JOHN: Really, really, ok

I told him i loved him and we hung up.Now the whole time my nurse was asking me if i felt my heart racing, my reply was "does it look like i feel like my heart is racing? lol" everyone in the room started to laugh. Because my contractions were not getting picked up on the monitor, they didn't think i was having any (but i was) my nurse never left my side. By the time we got into my room John was showing up, still in shock but happy. Needless to say because of where little miss was, we had lots of issues keeping the heart beat and the contractions on the monitor. The contractions were 2-3 mins apart and coming on good. Now i had my sister in law bring Cole up to the room so i could let him know what was going on. Since Cole was on his way up and the contractions were starting to get stronger i choose to get the epidural before he got there. The first one didn't stay on track and i felt every bit of movement in my back of the line. I wont lie it hurt so bad that i was screaming. The Dr. gave me a quick shot of c-section epidural (one that numbs from the boobs down) and we did a new track and that one worked. But because of the pain i felt i had a panic attack and my blood pressure dropped and with that so did my daughter heart beat. We got them back up and i finally got to see my son. I told him his sissy was coming soon and he got excited. around 530 i noticed the epidural was wearing off so i let it ( i had an epidural drip at this time) I was also at 5 centimeters. we sent Cole to his fathers house and by 7pm i was at 10 centimeters and i was being told to push. I then pushed the epidural drip and said " ok lets do this I'm ready" i started pushing at 7:10 pm and by 7:40 pm my beautiful little girl was here.

   

                                   Proud Daddy                                       Me,John, Rhylyn and Judi
                   Happy Family                                             4 Generations
                                       

                            Even though Rhylyn was 3 weeks early she was very healthy. She didn't cry when she came out and didn't cry while being cleaned off. She is a very happy little girl and she is perfect in every single way. Cole loves her more then anything and he understands that she is no longer in mommy's belly. The last 2 weeks have been fun and busy yet laid back. We still haven't full adjusted to getting up every few hours for her or having a full house. Cole asked me at the end of week 1 when she was going home. I laughed and told him that she was home. His next question was even better. He asked me if her mommy missed her. I explained to him that i was her mommy to. he has only asked one more time since then. Now his mornings and days consist of making sure to kiss her and tell her he loves her.

Now that our Little princess is 2 weeks old, John has to go back to work and i get to stay home and be a mommy. The only issue Rhylyn has/had is she was tongue tied and we are not having luck with the breast feeding. I have been trying and i have done so much, but no luck. But i am not giving up until i have tried everything. I just feel like she is not taking as well as i would like her to. she gets frustrated and only stays on a few seconds then screams. I will continue to try but i don't think she will take to it. Its sad but its ok. I'm learned to accepted it if that is what happens.

 It has taken me many years and bad relationships to get to the point of where i am now. Many struggles and many broken hearts and loves that i never thought i would get over. In those years i have made mistakes and have learned from them. My life hasn't been easy and i know my husbands life has had hard times also. But in the end we have been brought to one another and have started a family. Now that we have our son and daughter we couldn't be happier. Our life will have its ups and downs but in the end John and I will always have each other and our kids will always have us. I have no regrets in my life and i know my husband doesn't either. This is our perfect family, and now it is complete with the birth of our baby girl.

So i would like to FORMALLY introduce to every one  RHYLYN LAUREL BERG.

 

My family

GOD BLESS EVERYONE
