Adrian Dahey is now 2 months old and is up to 12 lbs 9 oz and it 22 1/4 inches long. He's growing well just not as fast as his brother did,which is nice. I'm loving life as the mommy of two little boys and I thank GOD everyday for blessing me with such beautiful boys. Adrian smiles all the time now and the other night he laughed. Daddy was rocking him to sleep around midnight (his sleep pattern is completely off now that we moved) and he just started laughing! It was so cute! Here are a few pictures of our sweet baby...

Seems like we just welcomed our youngest,Adrian Dahey,into the family yesturday but in reality he is already 6 weeks old! Time is just flying by it seems. He's mommy's cuddle bug and daddy calls him his wiggle bug, so Adrian's nickname has officially become BUG. :) Here are some pictures of his first 6 weeks....

Friday October 2,2009 @ 5:30 am I checked into the Hospital. I had seen my OB the day before and she wanted me to get 2 doses of antibiotics before she broke my water to prepare me for inducement. I had been having contractions steady at every10-15 min. apart and had dialated to 5cm on my own but since I was GPS positive this pregnancy, I need atibiotics. I was put in my room,BR3 around 6am. Around Noon I was checked and was already 8cm, on my own!! So when the Dr. came to break my water she ordered my epidural. It took him about 30 minutes to get me all set once he got there. Well the nurse checked me at around 1 PM and I was complete!
All we were waiting for at that point was the doc and me to feel pressure.
After only 4 pushes @ 1:34 pm ,Adrian Dahey was born!! He weighed in at 6 lbs 13 oz and was 19 inches long. I was shocked at how much smaller he was then his big brother,George. I knew he was smaller, I felt it all throughout my pregnancy but didn't expect that much smaller,lol...
Here are a few pics from his big day...
Awaiting our new addittion...
Toni & I, The proud Aunt, We're happy he's almost here!!
He's Here!!!

Another week has come & Gone. After our hospital trip last Thursday ( the 17th of sept. ) we
were told that we would not make it through another week without dilivering...well I'm still pregnant. LOL...I think Adrian is telling all of us "Hey I choose when I'm coming out "...and choosing he is. Tomorrow is the 4 year anniversary of my Daddy's death, I had jokingly said on several occassions " watch we will have Adrian on that day "...Truth is I would prefer that, It hurts to face the day knowing what it is, but I honestly believe adding something positive to the day with give me joy. I miss Daddy so much, Lord knows I wish he were here....I only have one picture of Dad & of Mom, and I hope to be able to share it with Adrian & George when they get older and tell them all the great things I remember about their grandpa. George Ellis was named after him. Adrian Dahey will be named after his Great Uncle Adriano aka RIP and his Daddy. Daddy's middle name is David and Dahey is the Irish form of David :) ...Til next entry....

Woke up around 6 am Thursday the 17th with some scattered contractions. Didn't really think anything of it, I hadn't really lost my plug. By 3 that afternoon they were closer together but still not steady. Then around 6 Pm I noticed they were steady, a little more intense and every 3 - 4 minutes apart! At first I thought "Ok, I'm timing wrong, They can't be every 3 already. " but turns out they were. So called Toni and went to the hospital! I was dialated 3 CM when I got there and was 70 % efaced... I was shocked but so happy thinking we were only hours from having our newest addition, our sweet Adrian Dahey would soon be here to meet us!

I was taken to Labor room 2 and after a few hours the contractions just stopped! So they checked me and I was 4 cm but still only 70 % efaced and he was still pretty high up but they decided to keep me overnight to be safe. The CDC had started a new "Rule" that anyone under the age of 17 could not visit. So as of the 18th George will not be able to attend his baby brothers birth as planned...I was heartbroken!! Not only could he not be there for his brothers birth I wouldnt be able to see my big guy until I was released from the hospital! That's to much for me, thats my baby! I have to be able to see him. So we came up with a game plan, so that David would be able to attend Adrians birth and I would be able to see george. But more on that in a few....
On Friday our OB came in and talked to me around 6 am. She said that since my contractions have stopped and I haven't made any change in umpty hours she would let me go home, if after I walk around for an hour the contractions dont start back up. Although 36 weeks 5 days was good it was still considered to be pre-term. Christina came to see me around 8 am and I was a basket case! I was missing George & David bad...then all of a sudden Boom, there's a contractions...um well no going home I thought. But after the one there were no more and so I thought Ok I'll still be going home....Nurse comes in around 9 and tells me, "Dr.Weise is coming in for a delivery in Labor Room 1 and after is going to break your water..." I was taken back...I thought whoah wait I thought she wanted us to try and carry til at least Sunday the 20th when i was officially 37 weeks.
So I called David updated him on the plan, called Toni since she was going to be with me through most of my labor and prepared myself mentally for the upcoming labor. So nurse comes in shortly after 11 am and tells me that since I'm not contracting again that Dr.Weise wants me to walk and if I dont start on my own I will most likely be going home...Um What? Are you serious? I felt like I was going through the twilight zone...one minute Im going home, next she's breaking my water, then No, I'm going home! So I walked and Dr.Weise came and checked me shortly after 12 and we talked after she confermed there had been no change since 9 pm the night before, I was 4 cm and 70 possibly 75 % efaced. So we talked about the risks. Then we decided that I would go home with strict restrictions until Sunday. If I felt anything I was to be back there on the drop of a dime.
So here we are 2 days the later and I'm feeling some contractions, but still not enough to panic.We are in the process of moving in with Toni for a while and have our game plan in place. When we go to the hospital David will watch George for a while then Toni will take his place with George and David will join me, and Vise versa til it's almost time to deliver then it will be David with me and toni watching George so that David can be there when Adrian is Born! Then in a few hours after my epidural wears off I will be allowed to go to the Lobby and spend some time with George before he & Daddy go home. I'll be able to see him, David will get to see Adrian born and Toni will be a part of it as well. Only regret is George wont get to meet his new baby brother until the days we are released from the hospital and Go home...But I know It will all work out...Just have to believe and put my faith In GOD's hands.
Here are a few pics from our hospital trip....Til Next Entry XoXo

My poor arm from the IV and the attempts at placing It

This week has been full of ups and downs. Had my doctors appointment on Tuesday the 25. It went well though. Doctor reminded us the next few weeks are crucial and since we got pregnant back to back I'm even more high risk of delivering before 36 weeks so now I feel like I'm living on pins and needles just trying to stay calm and relaxed, trying my hardest not to get upset,angry or depressed, I want us to make it past the 36 weeks and have another happy ,healthy baby boy.

Adrian's HR was 145 BPM on Tuesday and then I got my shot Wed. (Only 2 more shots to go) but his HR was an even 160 BPM. So they caught him sleeping at the doctors,lol.... I will be 34 weeks on Sunday. Sometimes it still feels surreal that we are this close to welcoming him home. Seems like we just found out we were expecting again. I'm so overjoyed that he will be here soon but still a little worried. George is still so young, he will be 11 months in a few weeks, and it's so hard to explain to them at that age what is going on. If you ask him "Where's Adrian" or "Where's your brother" he'll come up to me and put his hand on my belly, which is adorable! But I know in my heart he doesn't truly understand that Adrian is going to be born, that he is a baby, or that he will be coming home to stay. I know he will adjust, just worry sometimes.
Last night was a rough night for me sleeping. I woke up around 1 am unable to breath, I was hot, sweaty and it felt like my body was on fire. I started coughing just trying to breath. I walked to our bathroom, put cold water on my face and took slow deep breaths and it worked, my concern was why did it happen to begin with? It was very odd...But I'm feeling fine this morning. No tightness in the chest, breathing normal, not overheated, it was like I woke up in a panic attack...but why would you wake up in a panic attack? I don't know...But I am going to watch it today and go from there...Adrian is active so whatever it was hasn't affected him at all,lol.
