Levi Birthday

I am so excited yall have no idea.. I went to the Dr. Friday which was yesterday and got my ultrasound my fluid is back up and Levi has gained 6oz since last visit.. It took the lady forever to get his weight he wanted to be stubborn like his daddy and show us his leg.. Mom was like they are both there right( LoL ) she so crazy.. anyways seen the Dr. and he said my cervix was not doing anything and that it was a good chance i would have a c- section. that's the 3 Dr. that has told me that.. So I asked him if your going to take him why not just take him today.. he said we can take him but it will have to be Tuesday, Wed. Or Thurs. Mom and I agreed on Tues. so Tuesday I have to be at the hospital for 7 and they will take me back around 9 so Levi Aswell Stracener will be here sometime after 9am Tuesday Morning..

Yesterday he gave me a good scare he wasn't moving so i went to the doc. and he checked me and then did a non stress test and he was fine i guess he was just resting.. I'm just ready to see him and for him to be on the outside of my belly.

Levi Appt.

Today we went to see Levi he so big but so small he only weighs 6.2 pounds.. he is so cute in there at one point he was sucking but did not have his thumb in his mouth.. He is positioned right he is not breeched. I really wish i had one of them machine here i don't think you would be able to pull me off of it. As we talked to the Dr. he said there was not enough fluid around him. To cushion him and when that happens it can pinch the cord and he would not be able to get his oxygen or nutrition.. So he put me on bed rest I have to lay flat i guess that helps keep the water level.. He sent me to the hospital to get a stress test and it was fine said Levi was healthy and i have to go 2 a week to get the test done.. and Friday i get another ultrasound. That's the day he is due.. I guess when he gets ready he will let mama know and we will head to the hospital.. I'm so thankful he is healthy as long as i do what the Dr. says everything will be fine..

Waiting on Levi to get here

I have everything at home ready. I am just waiting on Levi to make his grand entrance!! I am so excited and can't hardly wait. I know I am going to have sleepless nights but it is all worth it. I would have never believed I could feel this way! I am so happy and Love him sooo much! I can not wait to hold him and kiss him! I know that he is going to be so loved and spoiled. His daddy also can't wait to see him. Cecil says he can't wait to hold him too! And as far as my mom oh boy!! she has been ready! She has been a big help to me. I don't know what I would do without her! Thank you mom! Love you. I know I should have started this when I found out I was pregnant. Then Levi and everyone would have a record of Levi's journey. But we can always start from here. Thanks to Amy starting Abigail's we now start our blog.
