So a week or so ago we finally announced we're Expecting our 4th Baby in April, up until then our kids didn't even know! Kylee was thrilled when we told them it was a girl, the rest of us are still getting use to the idea... we were hoping for another boy... they are so much... easier!! There is a reason we waited almost 5 months to announce, this Pregnancy has been anything but routine. It was our first Pregnancy that actually took some "Trying," about a year and a half ago my periods got very irregular, then I just started bleeding all the time. And we just flat out couldn't get Pregnant. I finally went in to talk to my Doctor, she told me my chances of conceiving were slim if I'm bleeding constantly. With all the questions she asked me we finally decided that in order to get pregnant I was going to have to take it easy and lay off any exercise or physical exertion... I doubted her at first but found that it was working! Instead of a way heavy period flow all day everyday I managed to dull it down to a light spotting every now and then and we ended up finally getting Pregnant! In the meantime Warren and I had been stressing about another huge matter. Our move up here, so without even thinking I began packing and lifting and moving everything in our house! So I started bleeding HEAVY again, I thought I had miscarried again... to make a very long story short, by some small miracle I hadn't miscarried, and I took some GREAT Gals up on there offers and asked for Help to finish packing up my house and managed to not over due while trying not to be obvious I wasn't packing a whole lot of boxes! Anyway that was just the start, once I got up here to Cornish I had another gush of Blood. What they found was my Uterus was full of Blood Clots and was told I had to go home and stay down so the clots would absorb back into my body rather than break loose and flush the baby out with them. So my Bed Rest started in August of 2011, despite my attempt to stay down I continued to Bleed, the clots weren't there anymore but my doctor couldn't pin point why I was still Bleeding. The first of this month I found out I have a Placental Abruption, in other words there is a big hole between my Placenta and my Uterus, they are attached enough the baby is growing and getting what she needs, so the Doctor told me I'm to be down until he tells me different, if they separate any more I could be delivering a very Premature Baby...Enough about all that, I need to brag on my Family for a sec, Kylan and Kylee have had a enormous amount of house work thrown at them and just until recently, they didn't know why. They have stepped up and done whatever I ask them to do with out complaint. Warren, my sweet husband that REALLY likes to be waited on hand and foot has been cooking dinner and doing more dishes than I care to admit, he's been bathing Bossy and even washing my car! He's been AWESOME! Then there's my Mom and Sisters, they got together and made meals, froze them and sent them up with us, I haven't had to worry about dinner for weeks! They knew about my situation when we were down to Baptize Kylan, I barely had to do a thing, they took care of tables, Lunch, Clean up, Everything! When we've stayed at my Mom's she's completely taken care of the kids and just let me sit around and watch her run around like a Mad Woman! I wouldn't have been able to do the South Trips without all her help! And then there's Lena, she's been over several times and stole my dirty clothes and brought them back clean and folded, she feeds my Family at least 3 or 4 times a week, she went and bought huge packs of paper and plastic stuff so we seriously have NO DISHES! She's been amazing! Not to mention she's had Bossy over several times, him and Kayson can destroy a house in a matter of seconds, she has a newborn, she doesn't need to be taking care of my bratty 3 year old! It will take me forever to repay everyone for all the help they've been, I'm so grateful for Family and Friends and can't Thank them Enough!!!
