Doctor Appointments

I haven't been updating as much as I would like to, so I'm just briefly going to touch base on the latest. Everything with baby pollock #2 is going great! (Besides the fact that I'm growing bigger every second, I constantly have a body part in my ribs, and I'm totally uncomfortable.) She is very healthy and we can't wait to meet her.
I took all of the regular tests you take when you're pregnant and everything is fine. After such a different start to this pregnancy, it's such a huge relief to hear such good news with every passing doctor appointment. Dr. Edds and his staff are awesome people and it's kind of refreshing to see their smiling faces everytime I go in, knowing that I'm in their care. (Especially with an almost 2 year old at home..it's nice break!)

I'm down to weekly appointments after this next one on this coming Friday. Start to pray for a healthy delivery! I go to a meeting on Monday to hopefully schedule/finalize her birthday, since I have to have a C-Section. Be looking for a birthday update soon!

No More Mr. Specialist!

During my last specialist appointment, Dr. Evans was once again impressed. I don't have to go back to him unless things take a turn for the worse in the next month. My titer count has been down to zero and the baby is growing great and is healthy! He was very happy with how everything is going. They even gave me all of the credit, which is sometimes nice, especially when I didn't have any control over anything.

Now most of you would think this is fantastic news. I too, would agree, with a couple exceptions. The staff there was extremely nice and Dr. Evans was definitely one of my favorite doctors. He was just so fun to watch and was very nice! I'm also going to miss seeing my baby on the screen every so often, even if the chair was totally uncomfortable! Although I don't have long to wait to see her again!

Thanks again for all of your prayers!

Finlee Graycen Pollock

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a name! How come it is that we can always think of boys' names but it's so hard to think of girls names? And of course, we have girls! After much thinking and discussing, we have a name. Our new little baby girl will be named: Finlee Graycen Pollock. Our next doctor appointment, we will schedule her birthday. We are so excited!

Beyond Average

Not too long ago, I recieved a call from my specialist nurse and had the great news delivered to me that my "titer" count was at zero! After that, I had a specialist appointment and my specialist, Dr. Evans, was so amazed with how everything is going. The baby has had no problems yet and he said that the results he had were better than average. She is growing big already and over the average size. Our babies are big girls! While at this appointment, they did a 3-D sonogram and a regular one. It was so cool to see her! (Definitely a girl!) Unfortuanately, Matt had a final this day and couldn't go with me to see it but my bestfriend, Shelbey, did instead! It was definitely something to see and I can't wait for Matt to see it on my next appointment. 3-D sono's let you see a lot. The pictures they gave me don't do justice!

I also had a regular doctor appointment. The tests went well and everything is going great. We are ready for our new baby girl to be here! Jaelyn is also ready to be a big sister!

I have more belly bump pictures and sono's to post. I will get there ASAP.

Thanks for your prayers..keep them up!

5 Month Pregnancy Pictures



I am currently 5, almost 6, months preggo. A lot of people say that I don't look it, but when I wear this tight shirt, you can definitely tell. Enjoy!

Praise the Lord!

I recently recieved a phone call that absolutely elated me! I had gone to the specialist and when I did, I had my routine (not routine for a "normal pregnancy") blood work done to get a blood titer count. (I guess this has to do with the antibody found in my blood..I do NOT want these in my system, or I want a very low number!) I had been praying that the baby was doing good, because when I went to my last sonogram, I felt a "comfort" surround me. The nurse called me back and my blood titer count was at zero! (A very good thing!) I was thrilled to hear that! Please pray that it stays this way so that our baby girl won't be harmed!

Thanks for all of your prayers!

I go back at the beginning of December for another sonogram. More blood work to come before that.

It's A Girl!

Breaking news! We recently went to the doctor and found out our "little boy" is going to be a little girl. Both the nurse and specialist declared they were 90% sure the baby was a girl. I am so glad Jaelyn is going to be a big sister to a little sister! We are thrilled!

Also, my appointment on 10-29-2008 went very well. The baby is growing great and is currently at 14 oz.-almost a pound! She was throwing her arms everywhere. It was such a joy to watch her! It's nice having all these extra sonograms this pregnancy so I can keep up on her. I will upload these sonogram pictures as soon as I can!

Thanks for your prayers!
