Just for fun

I thought I would show you how huge I was at the end of my pregnancy - I gained 70+ pounds!! It was completely not my doing - around 20-22 weeks Olivia stopped processing the fluid resulting in polyhydramnios most likely because of her meconium ileus. I included two pictures from Chris and my wedding (because they're sweet) as the "before" pictures.

Ohhh, aren't they nice? I walked down the aisle to Elvis' "Can't Help Fallin' in Love". (taken on 1/27/07)

And the room let out a collective gasp at the sight of her belly...(taken on 3/9/08)




I swallowed a...uh....some type of HUGE ball.....(taken 3/10/08)


And then I met my reason for being....Olivia Shea was born at 5:28pm. She weighed 9lbs 3oz and was 21 inches long. She was 7lbs 14 oz after she passed all of the meconium.

Oh, now wasn't that fun?

Wow! It's funny looking back after isn't it? I can't even remember being huge but when I look at pictures, I can't believe it.

Hi –

I ran across another CF family’s blog (Cindy's) yesterday and it’s brought me to an entire world of CF blogs! I have an eleven year old daughter with CF (and an 8 year old daughter w/o). I hope you don’t mind if I start following yours!
