Being pregnant for the second time just makes me think of all the memories that went along with my first..so I thought I would do this TaG from Elise..:O)
BABIES FULL NAME? Bentley Dallin Whitear
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THAT SPECIFIC NAME? We had been thinking about Bentley, but weren't sure if it was the "one". But when he was born (earlier than expected) it was the only name we had both agreed on, and he looked like a Bentley. :)
WERE YOU MARRIED AT THE TIME? For 11 1/2 short months :) (not planned by the way..)
WHAT WERE YOUR REACTIONS? Pure joy and happiness. The love we felt for him instantly was and still is SO overwhelming. Nothing has brought me more joy in my life than being a mother.
DID YOU WANT TO FIND OUT THE SEX? DuH! How were we suppose to decorate his nursery if we didn't know what it was?! :o) Plus..I am WAY too impatient..
DUE DATE? June 19th 2006
DID YOU DELIVER EARLY OR LATE? Early by three weeks. He was born May 26th
DID YOU HAVE MORNING SICKNESS? Yes, but it was more like evening sickness. It wasn't too bad though..
WHAT DID YOU CRAVE? HaMbUrGeRs! I never was crazy about hamburgers till I got pregnant. And then I found out I was and am AgAiN..Enemic so my body was craving the iron.
WHO IRRITATED YOU THE MOST? Anyone who was irritating :)
WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CHILD'S SEX? bOy
DID YOU HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS WITH YOUR PREGNANCY? Well..He was breach (head up) the WhOlE time and my Dr. was concerned if he didn't turn around I would have to have a c-section..so three weeks before my due date, I went to McKay Dee, so she could TRY to turn him around, with her hands pushing on my stomach..YA, OUCH! But what she found (after that painful event) was me already in labor contracting 2 minutes apart and his foot already on it's way out! And I was P.I.H. which means the baby was causing me to retain way too much fluid and my blood pressure to rise AlOt which is pretty dangerous..So that is the day baby Bentley made his arrival! via emergency c-section!
HOW MANY HOURS WERE YOU IN LABOR? Who knows how long I was in labor, I was just trying to be tough and assuming it was Braxton Hix contractions..First timer..??
WHO DROVE YOU TO THE HOSPITAL? Dallin, little did we know we would drive home with a baby.
WHO WAS IN THE DELIVERY ROOM? The O.R? Dallin..He almost passed out though after the epidural..but oddly enough, he could watch my insides being ripped out and set on the table..?? All I know is I am SO HAPPY he made it through, because I was a nervous wreck.
WAS IT NATURAL OR C-SECTION? C-section
DID YOU HAVE AN EPIDURAL? well you kind of have to with a c-section! But I would have opted for one anyways!
HOW MUCH DID YOUR BABY WEIGH? 6 lbs 10 oz.
DID YOUR BABY HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS? No, he was BEAUTIFUL and out of me in about 5 minutes after they made the incision..it goes SO fast! Well, I take that back..The night he was born, I had him go to the nursery for one feeding, and it's a good thing I did! He quit breathing for a minute and turned blue! So he spent a couple days in the NICU, but was just fine! :O)
WHAT HOSPITAL DID YOU DELIVER AT? McKay Dee
HOW OLD IS YOUR FIRSTBORN NOW? 2!! Now, he is going to be the BIG brother :)
I TAG EVERYONE WHO HAS CHILDREN.......

Hey, so Dave works til 6 on Saturday in Sandy, but we could make it to the Gateway by 6:30. I told Trudy too, if that still works for you guys. Let me know.
That was so fun to read. It is always a lot of fun to think back to those amazing memories. Being a mother is such a joy that I could never explain. I love watching you be such a cute and patient mom with Bently. We are still waiting for you to come visit us you little stink:) I hope that Benny is feeling better!
What a fun story. I used to think it was weird to hear people's birth stories until I had my own. Now I want to know every detail (well, almost...)
