The Journey Back To Fitness

Wow!  On August 7th, I gave birth to little Mateo Leonard Gilbert.  He was born at 11:42pm weighing in at 5lbs and 12 ounces.  Absolutely in love with him.  I had been diagnosed with Preclemsia which is a pregnancy condition that could turn fatal but through the grace of GOD, we got through the labor and delivery (which lasted 24 hours).  HE IS SOOOO WORTH EVERYTHING!!  What a blessing. 

So here we are on August 18th, 09...

So I am 1.5 - 2 cm dilated.  Feeling some contractions and hanging out home until they become painful or water breaks.  Festive, huh.  Focused on the fact that I will be holding this little blessing VERY SOON!    Trying not to focus on the pain factor...lol.  I will be getting induced on Wednesday, August 12th if he doesn't show up before then.&
