1. While in the middle of our adoption process, I found out I was pregnant.
2. I had surgery when I was 4 weeks pregnant. I had no idea I was
pregnant, the pregnancy test I took at the hospital the day of surgery
was negative....and to boot, the surgery was to help me get pregnant.
(We're still paying off that surgery that was apparently not needed at all)
3. I gained 12 whopping pounds during my entire pregnancy. I'm not
saying that to brag, but more to say that I was pretty stressed out.
4. I was 27.5 weeks pregnant when Clover was born.
5. Clover spent 2 months in the NICU. I may be one of the few moms
that was in the NICU with her new baby while also pregnant.
6. My
doctor was actually worried about my pregnancy and the growth of the
baby. Towards the end of my pregnancy, I had to get weekly stress tests
and ultrasounds done (some were done in Billings where I was with
Clover and others I would travel to Thermopolis for).
7. 10 days
after Clover was discharged from the NICU, I went into early labor (5
weeks early). I was flown back to Billings, MT for the delivery.
8. Curtis missed the birth of Henry. I was pretty much all alone (just
me and nurse) while I was in labor, and then Henry ended up being born
emergency c-section. Curtis was driving (with Clover) from Wyoming to
Billings during all of this.
9. Henry spent 2 weeks in the NICU.
10. Curtis and I were married 10 years before having our 2 little miracles.
