Update........But never late!? Almost!

Ok Jen, Enough is enough!! Be nice I am not exactly 100% quite yet!! ;)


So here it is!! The last month dare I say SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never experienced bigger pain sickness etc. etc. in my whole life!! For those of you who have not heard the drama from your mama! I had a hernia yep a hernia at 6 month's prego! I woke up in major discomfort @ 5:00 a.m. on January the 14th. Thinking it was just simple growing pregnancy pains. I thought maybe even upset stomach. I popped a couple of tums and headed out the door for work. When I arrived I felt increasingly WORSE I mean BAD! A close Friend and co-worker Tara asked how I was feeling. I explained and she commented on how pale I looked and that she was worried. I ignored the thoughts, being the work horse stubborn chic that I am, and went out to run my morning shift at the Fuel Center. When I unlocked the door and counted out my drawer... a ton of bricks hit me like a semi truck! I was on the floor in absolute agony! I called my husband (hero) Scott and told him he needs to leave work and take me the hospital! After that I called my store director explained the situation, and he told me to leave immediately! I am sure because he has seen me have other major symptoms at work before. But that's a whole other chapter. Anyhoo, my hubby arrived and rushed me to the emergency area at the hospital.
They took my usual diagnosis and then proceeded to tell me that I should of gone to the womens hospital due to me being prego! How nice to know that! They did blood work and gave me morphine (it did nothing). Then transported me to the womens hospital via Ambulance.When I arrived they gave me more morphine (still no relief) and ran more wonderful tests. Mom and dad arrived and came to my side and Scotts. They ran x-rays saw nothing! Blood work Nothing! When hearing about previous surgeries, and learning of a former hernia they made the determination that,that was the current problem. Might I add that they were monitoring the baby this whole time, and he was perfectly fine! the only part of me that was! Well after the doc's conclusion.... "surgery" to cut me open and look to see what was really happening. So they transported me back to the hospital opened me up to take a peek and surely enough I was a "Badley Herniated" (not sure if that is a word or not). They performed surgery immediately. Four hours later, they tell my Hubby mom and dad, that the hernia was wrapped around my Small intestine twice and my colon.


I woke up at the womens hospital they transported me back there after surgery and began a month long recovery!!!! I am so thankful my baby was okay and still is! my recovery has been dreadful!!! I no longer fear labor, not at all!!! I have lost 16 pounds, due to not holding anything down for a month. Which has the doc's worried so I am being monitored weekly. To make sure the baby is growing healthy. So far he is the most healthy yet, I would not want it any other way though. I am still very weak and tired all the time. I venture back to work next week. Prayer's are a constant activity in my home and I have been blessed. I want to thank God and the Docs and all of my loved family and friends for there support and prayers. So here it is I am going on prego month 7, and praying that, that # is lucky!!!!!

Prego UPDATE

I can feel and have felt for some time LIFE! he moves especially when I am not. Like when I am napping he is awake. I guess I should get used to that! I am 51/2 mos. along and I for the most part feel just fine. I get tired and I have some pulling pains, but I know that is just the baby growing and things stretching along with him. Feeling life inside me is so awesome being pregnant is amazing. I crave fish sandwiches big time! I get them at McDonalds but I know and my sis told me that having to much fish can be dangerous. Its crazy though its all I crave or want. Well for now here is and update and me and the bump

Nothing wrong with making each other LAUGH, laughing is good medicine! We are NERDS Jenn!

BABY NEWS

WE ARE HAVING A BOY! today Scott and I went to my appointment and I had the ultrasound. I was so DANG nervous. I have been thinking pink all along but it was very interesting right before the Doctor was going to tell me the sex... the strongest feeling of BOY came over me, and I said out loud... I am having a boy aren't I? and the doc. confirmed it YES' a boy! Scott and I were thrilled and we went to the mall and bought a UTAH Jazz little Jersey one-zie with matching bootee socks to honor our new little LEMMON! YEAH!!!!!!!!

On the edge!!!

Ok I am really stressed out right now! I hate my job most of you know that!! And this week has been off to a rough start!!! We had those annoying corp. big wiggs show up and they complained that I did not greet them at the pump! Ummmm.... Hmmmm.. OK' we are the cheapest gas prices in town @ a 1.64 a gallon for unleaded, aside from your discount you can get for shopping there, let me say we are SWAMPED EVERY FREAKING DAY!!!!!!!!!!! So to keep track of every single customer is pretty far fetched I would say. But that is just one thing why is it when you make a mistake, you get told by every single superior in the building?!? I swear Mike Judge, when he wrote office space, could not of been more on the "$" with his statement..... When I make a mistake I have "5" different people telling me about it!!! Ugh!!!!! I always hear the mistakes never the compliment's!! I hate that place I can not wait to Quit!!!
Secondly I find out Thursday what we are expecting!! I am so nervous about that, I want to be happy with the answer I feel I will let my Husband down he wants a boy and so does my dad. However, all my mom and I keep thinking is pink! I don't know,I am also stressed because I have not felt life yet!! What if my baby is paralyzed??? I thought by now I would have felt one butterfly! So I am worried big time by that. I need to have a spa treatment, my skin is always itching from it stretching and the cold weather. My clothes are uncomfortable, I need maternity wear! I broke down and bought maternity work pants last night, because mine are about to split open. I just want to crawl into a ball and cry!!!!

Ok my sis rags on me for new posts so here we go!!

Being four and a half month's prego, I cry at hallmark commercials.I can be mild and laid back one moment and wanting to get into a scream match the next!! I am feeling quite depressed and ugly more often than not!
In a lighter note my insomnia is gone,so is the severe rushes of nausea.On December 6th I find out what we our expecting I am so nervous about that! I cant seem to get it straight on what I think I may be having!! First off and foremost I want HEALTHY! I feel it may be a girl but see myself decorating with blue and picture boy clothes?!?
I don't know, I know Scott wants a boy real bad. But won't be sad if it's a girl. He Just wants his little Stockton Garth Lemmon. But I am thinking it might be Emerald Jean Lemmon instead!
Oh well The Lord Knows I just hope my baby is Healthy and ready for us!! the poor little soul!! Hahaaa Wow me a mom Crazy!! ;)

This is HALLOWEEN!

Here we both are' I was stoked to be Sally and Scott be Jack this year! I got a great deal on the costumes! Halloween is A FAV for sure for me!

We had a great time, with Jenn Kev and kids! I got the biggets kick out of Bella. She was scared of me at first but then warmed up and insisted on holding my hand the entire night! We got allot of attention as Jack and Sally! some took pics. others pointed and smiled. People told us they loved our costumes! Tons of fun. Here are some pics compliments of my sis....
