Doctor appt



Today was Kiana's weight check at the doctors office to see how she was doing as far as her weight and to see if she was showing any signs of jaundice. she did well she's now 7lbs and 20 inches long and showing no signs of jaundice. she does however have a hernia where her umbilcal cord was but the doctor said that it should go away on it's own. I can't believe that she's already almost a week old.

Birth Story



Kiana is finally here! Wednesday morning at 7am I went in to the hospital to be induced. At around 8:30 they checked me and i was only dilated 2cm so the doctor broke my water and started the pitocin at around 8:45am. At around 9:00 the contractions were stronger and closer together so they turned off the pitocin and checked me again and i was already at 7cm by then the pain was pretty unbearable so i asked for an epidural however by the time the anesthesiologist got there i had dilated to 9cm and they said that it probably wouldn't take before the baby came. AT 10:33 Kiana Parker was born. She weighed 6lbs 10.3oz and was 19inches long. Has a lot of brown hair and brown eyes. She's a beautiful baby and looks alot like her big sister. At first Kiana had a rough time maintaining her body temp but after a little stay in her warmer she warmed up and started maintaining her temp on her own.

Tomorrow's the big day

Well Kiana has decided to stay put so i go in tomorrow for the induction. I was really hoping to avoid this but it's not going to happen. I just can't wait to finally be able to hold her and see her. I can't wait for Aelita to be able to see her baby sister.

Not much longer

I don't have much longer until Kiana is finally here. I'm really starting to get nervous about the induction but i'm sure everything will go okay. I just really want to hold her for the first time. I'll be sure to post some pictures of her when she gets her for everyone to see.

Only 3 more days!!

Kiana will definitly be here in 3 more days. The doctor has me scheduled for induction on Wednesday January 16th at 7am. I'm really getting nervous about it but at the same time i'm excited to finally see and hold Kiana for the first time. I just hope that everything goes okay and they don't have to end up doing a c-section and nothing happens to Kiana during the induction.

She's almost here!

I got a call from my doctor today while i was out getting some last minute things for Kiana. My doctor has me scheduled for an induction on January 16 at 7am. I was really hoping to avoid having to be induced but apparently Kiana want's to be more stubborn the Aelita ever was.

Still not here

Kiana's due date has come and gone and she's still not here. She's apparently going to be more stubborn then Aelita was. I just really wish she'd get here though. The doctor is out of town right now anyway so i guess it's okay. They've scheduled an induction for next week if she's not here by then.
