1. WAS YOUR FIRST PREGNANCY PLANNED? Yes - we were ready to add to our family
2. WERE YOU MARRIED AT THE TIME? Yes, for 3 years (4 when Taryn arrived)
3. WHAT WERE YOUR REACTIONS? I didn't think it was true, but when it finally hit me I was SOOO excited!
4. WAS ABORTION AN OPTION FOR YOU? Absolutely not
5. HOW OLD WERE YOU? 22
6. HOW DID YOU FIND OUT YOU WERE PREGNANT? Pregnany test, then the doc confirmed it
7. WHO DID YOU TELL FIRST? Robbie of course, then my friend Kim guessed because I was asking her how long she waited to tell her family she was expecting...that made it pretty obvious!
8. DID YOU WANT TO FIND OUT THE SEX? Yes! I wanted a girl so badly that I convinced myself we were having a boy just so I wouldn't get my hopes up. Don't get me wrong, I love little boys and I can't wait to have one...but I had to get my girl first!
9. DUE DATE? May 14th
10. DID YOU HAVE MORNING SICKNESS? Ewe yes, I thought I had gotten lucky because I felt fine, but then week 7 arrived and it was yuckarama until about week 15...BLEH!
11. WHAT DID YOU CRAVE? In the beginning it was crisp apples and mandarin oranges...then fried chicken and chocolate milk...and last but not least CHICKEN NUGGETS from McDonalds...MmMmMm I'm lovin' it
12. WHO/WHAT IRRITATED YOU THE MOST? One week Robbie's breath smelled HORRID to me (he's going to hate me for writing this) but seriously it was so weird, anytime we were in the same room I felt like I was going to puke, even if he brushed and used mouthwash. But really it was only about one week...good thing!
13. WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CHILD'S SEX? Female
14. DID YOU WISH YOU HAD THE OPPOSITE SEX OF WHAT YOU WERE GETTING? Not this time around!
15. HOW MANY POUNDS DID YOU GAIN THROUGHOUT THE PREGNANCY?
Who asks this kind of a question!! I guess it's ok because it was "baby" weight - but I gained 34 lbs...people didn't believe me..but it's the truth.
That is not a basketball!!
16. DID YOU HAVE A BABY SHOWER? I had 4 showers actually! Lucky me...really I don't think Robbie and I had to buy a single thing, until the diapers ran out!
17. WAS IT A SURPRISE OR DID YOU KNOW? The showers? Or the baby? - no surprises on either.
18. DID YOU HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS DURING YOUR PREGNANCY?
Luckily No
19. WHERE DID YOU GIVE BIRTH? Alta View, it was the best experience!
20. HOW MANY HOURS WERE YOU IN LABOR? I was induced at about 11:00 am, and Taryn was born 6:47 pm so just under 8 hours. They offered me the epidural right from the beginning, but I waited until after they broke my water...then I was like Ok, I think I'll take that now!...but honestly everything went so smoothly, I couldn't have asked for it any other way.
This picture was after they broke my water and I could really feel the contractions - I can tell because I remember grabbing the bar on the side of the bed every time I felt one...ouch!
21. WHO DROVE YOU TO THE HOSPITAL? Robbie
22. WHO WATCHED YOU GIVE BIRTH? Robbie, Dr. England, nurse Linda, and my mom was holding my hand.
23. WAS IT NATURAL OR C-SECTION? Ha - ya natural...whatever! Epidural all the way!
24. DID YOU TAKE MEDICINE TO EASE THE PAIN? Yesiree! Our second night there Robbie went home to sleep because he's way to tall for the little window bed. Plus I was so doped up on pain meds and Ambien! I was trying to change Taryn's diaper and I finally had to call the nurse because I couldn't figure out what I was doing!! So they took Taryn for the night in the nursery and I slept like a baby (that saying makes no sense) so I slept like I did before I was pregnant - on my STOMACH! AHHHHH

7 lb, 5oz
