BABIES FULL NAME?
Kennley Marie King
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THAT SPECIFIC NAME?
We had a really hard time chooseing a name...everything I liked he hated and vise versa. I really wanted the name Preslee Marie King but he said she would be teased forever(I loved it so much I pushed till the night before she was born.) So We were at El Madador in Ogden and this little girl was haveing her birthday and her name was Kennley, it was then we both looked at eachother and said "I love that name." We finally agreed and after hearing it alot we both fell in love with it:)
WERE YOU MARRIED AT THE TIME?
Yes we were married for 2 years and 5 months when she arrived:)
WHAT WERE YOUR REACTIONS?
We were both SOOOOOOO excited to have a precious little baby. Here is how it went down. I was at work when my friend called to tell me how she was feeling so she decided to take a test and found out she was prego. The rest of the day I kept thinking that I was feeling the exact same way she was feeling when she found out, so I decided to stop and get a test. I really didn't think i was so I just decided to take the test real quick and get it over with. The whole time I was so nervous and anxious to look at the test I was making myself sick, so when it was time I finally looked and to my suprise it said "PREGNANT." I honestley didn't believe it so I called my friend and borrowed a test from her that they give you in the hospital, went home and took that test and sure enough that one was positive too. I got butterflies in my stomach and just sat there thinking there is a little person growing inside of me and I didn't even know it. I quickly ran to Wal-Mart and bought some onsies, booties, and little hats, and came home and wrapped them up along with both of the pregnancy test and suprised my husband. The next day I came home from work and Brent suprised me with the entire family room filled with pink and blue balloons. It was so cute!!
HOW OLD WERE YOU?
I was 24 the entire pregnancy, and Brent was 24 when we found out and 25 when we had her:)
WHO DID YOU TELL FIRST?
We had my nephews little walker at the house so we tied pink and blue balloons to it and put the onsies and booties on the tray and put the walker on my parents porch and doorbell ditched them, and then drove to my in-laws and door bell ditched them too. After our parents knew we told everyone else:)
DID YOU WANT TO FIND OUT THE SEX?
Definatley YES. I couldn't wait until my ultrasound to find out the sex so that I could go buy cute little clothes and start decorating the nursery:)
DUE DATE?
April 22, 2008
DID YOU DELIVER EARLY OR LATE?
2 weeks early because I had toxemia:(
DID YOU HAVE MORNING SICKNESS?
I sure did...If I didn't keep something in my stomach all the time I was miserable, but it only laseted for about 4 months:(
WHAT DID YOU CRAVE?
Carbonation, pizza with ranch, oreo cookie ice cream, and slushes from Sonic:)
WHO IRRITATED YOU THE MOST?
I think everyone had their moments with me....my hormones were so out of wack. Sorry everyone:)
WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CHILD'S SEX?
A healthy little GIRL:)
DID YOU HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS WITH YOUR PREGNANCY?
Not until the end. I was gaining weight and my feet were swollen like any pregnancy, but the last month I was gaining a lot of water weight and my feet and ankels were so enourmous I couldn't even get crocs on my feet. I went to my Dr. appt on the 9th of April and my blood pressure was 160/110, I gained 6lbs in one week, my vision was blurry, and I had been getting bad headaches. That's when she told me they were taking the baby the next day. I just remember crying in her office and thinking I was not ready emotionally....I thought I still had 2 weeks to psych myself up for the whole labor thing:)or physically....I didn't have my bag packed, the house wasn't clean(I just started nesting)and I didn't have all her baby clothes washed.
HOW MANY HOURS WERE YOU IN LABOR?
13 HOURS...I was induced at 7:30am and delivered at 8:45pm:)
WHO DROVE YOU TO THE HOSPITAL?
My husband. The whole way there he had to keep me calm and tell me everything was going to be okay because I had so much anxiety, that I was literally making myself sick:(
WHO WAS IN THE DELIVERY ROOM?
Brent, my mom, and my mother-in-law. At that point I could have cared less who watched because It is such an amazing thing to see this little life being born...It's such a miracle:)
WAS IT NATURAL OR C-SECTION?
Natural:)
DID YOU HAVE AN EPIDURAL?
I sure did. But It wore off after 5 hours, so they gave me a spinal block and that wore off about an hour before I delivered, so I felt everything. But I have to say the worst pain was when I was delivering the placenta....it was like one huge contraction that lasted about 8 minutes with no relief:(
HOW MUCH DID YOUR BABY WEIGH?
She was 7lbs. 1oz. and 19.5 inches long:)
DID YOUR BABY HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS:)
The only thing that worried everyone is when I delivered her head the cord was wrapped around her neck. Brent said right when the Dr. saw that she immediatly grabbed the cord and pulled it off Kennley's head and her color started coming back. Other than that she was very healthy:)
WHAT HOSPITAL DID YOU DELIVER AT?
Davis
HOW OLD IS YOUR FIRSTBORN NOW?
She will be exactly 4 months in five days:)
I TAG EVERYONE WHO HAS CHILDREN.......
