37 weeks! Cadence is naughty!

I had my doctors appointment yesterday 4/28 and found out that once again Cadence has turned around and is breech again. I am pretty sure it happened when I was in the doctors office because she felt completly different and then when the doctor went to check me she was in my ribs again. The doctor said he thinks she is breech so we went and did an ultrasound to confirm it and sure enough that naught girl had turned back around. Scott and I have decided to wait and see if she will turn herself again instead of having the doctor trying to turn her due to all the risk involved.

36 weeks!

So I went to the doctors last week and found out that cadence has turned and is now head down. I also found out that I am 1 1/2cm dialated and 70%effaced. I go for another check up this week so I will know then how much progress I am really making. Scott and I went to our birthing class last weekend and learned a lot of information. I am still all for an epidural but it is nice to know that we have other options if for some reason I can't get one. I will try to take some pictures in the next week or so and keep this updated.

6 more weeks




















Cadence Mae Peterson will be here soon! I can't believe how fast it is going now. We finished her room this weekend, and it is so wonderful! My baby shower is this saturday and I can't wait it is going to be so much fun! Getting ready for Cadence has been a lot of work but it will all be worth it. Right now Cadence is breech and we will find out our options on the 16th. It is really scary to think I might have to have a c-section but I fully trust my doctor and will take all the information into consideration before deciding what to do. I will keep everyone updated on what happens. Hopefully Cadence will stop being stuborn and will turn on her own.

10 more weeks!

So I have made it to 30 weeks! The baby's room is painted and we are starting to collect a lot of baby items. My mom came out the weekend of valentines and did a wonderful job painting the room. Scott and I absolutely love it. Baby names have been a big topic lately, we are still undecided. We both like the names Cadence and Hannah. No new updates at the doctors, I start going every two weeks now. I defiantly feel our little girl moving around, she likes to kick me a lot and is very active.

It's a Girl!!

Scott and I are having a little girl! I am so excited. It was so much fun to be able to tell our parents. We made picture frames that said "It's a girl" and put in a picture of the ultrasound and let them open it for Christmas. But since I flew to Arizona before Christmas Scott and I did spend Christmas separately so he gave the present to his family and I gave it to mine. My whole family already knew (before I told them) that it was a girl and they were all right. My mom gave me a blanket that her aunt made for her when she was pregnant with me (and didn't know what she was having) it is white and has pink flowers on it! My mom said she wanted me to have it and told me the story behind it before I let her know what I was having. It was a great christmas and I am glad to be able to call our baby a girl now!

I know the sex!!!

On saturday December 13th Scott and I found out the sex of the baby! I am so excited and can't wait to tell everyone but it is a surprise for the new grandparents for Christmas so I can't tell yet. All I can say is that Scott and I are both so happy! I will announce more details after Christmas.

another appointment

So I had another appointment today, I had hoped that since they did an ultrasound at every other appointment I would be able to find out if we were having a boy or girl. But the doctor got a call and another patient was in labor so he was in a hurry and so we just listened to the hear beat this time. I was still great to hear that our little one's heart beat. So at the next appointment we will be able to get all measurements of the baby and find out the gender! I am so excited I can't wait!
