Beat up by my 3 Year old!

Yea literally!!  T broke my nose!!  On Sunday night, we were doing our nightly routine and he likes to lay in our bed before going to bed. So as I'm getting him settled in and I sit on the bed, a flying head comes back and straight up hits me right in my nose!!  It hurt so bad, that I flew back, called for John and I could here T crying. John came in to find me laying back holding my face and grabbed T who was crying and asked me if I was ok, I couldn't honestly speak the pain that radiated through out my face was the worse pain I have ever felt, of course I started crying and John was trying to make sure I didn't pass out on him by talking to me, which I wanted nothing to do with talking.  When John got T settled he came over to me to see if I was ok, luckily I wasn't bleeding and I got up to check out the damage. From what I could see, there was nothing there, and John really couldn't tell either. He did however try to grab at it and see if he could feel and I think I almost whacked him in the face. So painful!! So I got ice and iced it for awhile took some good ole Tylenol since that's all I can take. It swelled up pretty good, and the throbbing was ridiculous. I have never been hit in my face before let alone broken anything. So this pain was new.
Next morning I wake up and I still can;t really tell, I have some swelling and mild bruising under my eyes, that honestly just look like bags from no sleep.  I walked into work and with in two seconds of my brothers looking at me they immediately were like WTF happened to your nose. Yep good indicator shits broken!
I made an appt with my PCP, and as soon as she walked in, she was like "oh, ohhhh",  Hmm doesn't sound so promising.  She tells me its definitely broken, but where? it could be be broken in 1- 2 or 3 places.. Awesome. I can't have an xrays so she sends me to ENT that specializes in the Nose department.
I see him, and before even bringing me into the room, he saw me come in and looked at me and said Oh yea he did some damage(my son that is)  Promising!! Way to let me down easy!!
So he came in took a look, pulled and tugged and I wanted to punch him!! Said I broke it at the very top of my nose as well as the bottom.. I don't know much about noses, I realize you can break it, there's cartilage in there etc, but apparently from the way T hit me, it was straight on and high, not like a punch to the nose.
He told me there was nothing he could do until after I have M. and by that he meant surgery!!  So I will be having surgery one week after I have M.  If M comes on his own like I so want him to, I can move the date up, if I go in for my scheduled Csection than I go in on the 16th..
Who would have ever thought a 3 year old could do this much damage?? Not me, that's for sure!!
This all happened so fast, that I don't even remember, how, what or why?  I didn't even have time to move, or get out of the way!!

I swear I can't catch a break with my pregnancies. Both of them have never gone smoothly.
With M, I have had Preterm labor, an accident, and now this.
With T, I had swelling, high blood pressure and a csection that caused me to stay in the hospital for 4 1/2 days along with a blood transfusion!!  Oiiiii

So now I get to rock a crooked nose for about 3 weeks, i am so hoping M makes his appearance sooner than later, so I can get this done and over with..

This is the aftermath, My BIL took this picture yesterday so I could see what they were all seeing, because I really couldn't see it just looking in the mirror..

Horrible picture, but you can see how swollen my face is and my poor nose. =(

AUGUST 7, 2011

YEP!!  I am pregnant!!  So I realize we were supposed to start trying in December but, I decided to go off my BC in November because people have said that it could take up to 3 months to a year to conceive and well really I was thinking I could have one regular cycle before actually trying. Apparently that did not happen!

I tested on Nov 27 and the only reason why I tested was because on Thanksgiving and the day before I was Extremely irritable and on edge. Beyond what happens when my period comes, not to mention really weepy. So I knew something was up.  For whatever other reason I just woke up on Sat and a thought just came to my head like, maybe I should just test.  So I did.. it was later in the afternoon when I did and the line came up very faint.. So I was kind of caught off guard and thought hmm.. maybe its just a bad test and its the afternoon. so I held on to the test and waited till the morning pee. I went and waited and within a minute a pink line clearly came through..  Oiiiiiii vey...  
So that is that.. 

I AM PREGNANT!!  =)   As I sit and type this I am only 4 weeks and things are still really early.  I'm trying to keep an open mind and still think to myself that its possible that my period is going to come this weekend. I hope to god it doesn't but I will except whatever I'm dealt..

John went out of town for T-day - so i waited till he got home on Sunday to tell him. 
I bought a pack of Newborn diapers and wrote on one of the diapers, Get Ready for These Again.  I put my positive test within the diaper and put it in a giftbag.
When he got home he saw it sitting on the dresser and asked what it was, I said to open it and as soon as he unraveled and read it. He just looked at me with a big grin said, "REALLY?, already? I thought we were going to start trying in December?"  Uh, apparently babe you have super nova sperm and yea well it couldn't wait until December!!  hahah So needless to say  he was shocked and happy!!

**~ Tiny little edit to this**~
We moved my first appt to Dec 29th- 1 because I'm impatient and 2 because, well 10 weeks is just way to long to find out if everything is ok. and well I'm impatient. What can I say!!

I made my first appt and its for Jan 3rd.  I think its so ironic and brings back a flood of memories because on Jan 3rd 2008 I went in for T's NT scan.  3 years later I'm going in for my first u/s of our new little one and I couldn't be more ecstatic.

Baby Makin Readyness?

Seriously I have been thinking about this A LOT, I mean a lot..  The hubs and I have discussed starting in December. I'm pretty excited, because this time around, I get to have the upper hand on when we get pregnant.  When I found out I was prego with T I was very , I mean VERY surprised, I had NO idea. I was on birth control and took it religiously (yes I'm the 1% out of the 99% effective). Except apparently the few weeks leading up to T picking me to be his momma it wasn't so effective, or I wasn't so effective at taking it at the same time every day..
 You shoulda saw my reaction, I was in disbelief and if you can think of the scene from knocked up - where they run to the drug store and are throwing every single prego test in the basket, YES that was me!! Since I had only bought one test on my way home, thinking Pshh I know I'm not but, ya know my period is late and it usually is ALWAYS on time I figured I should give it a whirl.  HA!!!  I think my mouth dropped and I had to take a seat back on the toilet when I saw Pregnant  pop up. We now call T my B-day present, nice right..

 Now that I get to actually do some preparing, I want to do it right. I guess there is  no right or wrong way to do it.. but for me I would like to be at a better weight than I was, I want to be working out and continue to be able to do so through out this pregnancy. I want this pregnancy to be VERY different from the first one. The first one I was thrown into it and so unprepared, I was super overweight and was not excersing, I watched what I ate to an extent, but definitley could of been better about it. I ended up with a c-section, I was induced and  failed to progress, my BP was high at the end, I was so swollen and uncomfortable at the end as well.  I do NOT want to have to go through that again, my hopes are to have a VBAC. I know my OB is for it as well.  I have been doing research etc on VBAC's so I feel like I'm pretty informed in that sense, but I still need to make sure I talk to my Dr about it and make it VERY clear that a VBAC is the way I would like to have it done, I will not ask to be induced and I hope labor will start on its own and I can do most of the laboring at home (thats the hope, but I know there's a lot that could change) I'm okay with that, but I want the oppurtunity to at least try my way.
 December seems to be inching closer and closer, so I'm trying to map out a good plan. Definitely includes losing at least 17 lbs of the weight I gained back from my wedding, and then some would be nice. Eating healthy again and going  back to the gym on a daily basis.  My goal would be down 25lbs  I would be happy with that.. More than happy. =) 

What other things did you do to make your 2nd, 3rd pregnancy better than the last?
