Signet 2

In September 2007 a month after I had gotten off the Diflucan. Ashley and I started trying to have another baby. After 4 months of trying I thought oh no here we go again, and toward the end of December something in my heart told me that I was pregnant and I decided to wait until January to take a test and I was right...I was pregnant with another baby who was due September 13 the day before Brayden's birthday. This pregnancy was alot differant than the first. I was carring all my weight in my belly this time and with Brayden I gained all over.I even failed my glucose test and started the diabetic diet and went back and failed the first hour and past the next two hours so I just stayed on the diet until after I had Bryant. I honestly can say I felt better than I have ever felt while I was on the diet.

On August 26 I went into Dr. Stones office and he wanted to go ahead and induce me because he thought Bryant was going to be another big boy. I told him I wanted to wait until September so that him and Brayden would be 3 years apart in school so On September 2 I went in and Dr Stone checked me and told me to come in the next morning to be induced. On September 3 I woke up got a shower got dressed and we headed to the doctor ready to welcome our new baby boy into the world.

Well I got to the hospital and got changed into my hospital issued gown, and the nurse got some blood work,started my IV and did some paper work, and the whole time we talked about how I would never have a child naturally that it just don't make since when there are such good medicines out there. Well my water was broke around 6:00 am and about 7:15 or so the nurse came back into my room to tell me that my **My wonderful nurse who was pregnant and due March of 09**platelet count was too low...What that meant was I would not be getting my wonderful epidural this time around that I would get some local meds but that would be it. I honestly was scared that this was going to be long day..many thoughts raced through my mind. Well after about 6 hours of being in labor and about 30 minutes of actually pushing Bryant was born about 12:15. In all honesty yes I did feel him coming but I think that made him get here alot faster because I could tell exactly what I was doing they told me to push and I did. I had a wonderful lady that made me get on my kness and that really made me feel alot better. Bryant was born weighing 7lbs 8oz and 20 3/4 inches long. He was such a beautiful baby,but had to stay under the heater alot longer than I wanted.

Dr Timothy Stone.....He was the same doctor that delivered Brayden.

Daddy &Bryant....Daddy is so proud of his boys.

On September 05 2008 we were released from the hospital to come home it was such a beautiful day.We made a quick stop at Walmart to get Bryants pictures made then we headed to the house to get a nap, cause you never get any sleep at hospitals. Bryant came home weighing only 7lb 2 oz and he wanted to sleep more than he wanted to eat so whenever we went back to the doctor he was up to 7lb 4 oz but still not enough weight so I had to start him on a feeding schedule and wake him every two hours to eat, needless to say it was a bit tiresome but it was well worth it. When we went back to the doctor
09/22/2008
Weight: 7 lbs. 10 oz.Height: 20 5/8 in. so we dr bill told me that I could go back to letting him sleep for hours at night or until he woke up but needless to say he was on a schedule that I could not break so regardless every two hours he woke up to eat. Then we had to come back on 10/01 for a regular checkup and he weighed
Weight: 8 lbs. 5 oz.Height: 21 1/2 in
