CARTER'S ROOM IN THE CHATEAU

Pregnant

Before PregnancyWe found out we were pregnant Thanksgiving weekend 2001. Stacy had a pretty good pregnancy overall. No morning sickness, except for a couple days when she took her pre-natal vitamins Pregnant and Swollenon an empty stomach. After we figured out that was a bad idea things were pretty smooth. In the third trimester she had a little blood pressure issue, and major swelling. Nothing significant enough to endanger the mother or the baby though. The most negative event, with the obvious exception of the actual delivery, was that she swelled so much that she had to have her wedding and engagement ring cut off. That was tramatic, but they were easy enough to put back together after Carter was born.

At 18 weeks we found out that our baby was Carter and not Elizabeth (or both). Stacy wanted to know the sex and I didn't. She won. Actually, by the time we had been pregnant for 18 weeks, I was ready to know too.
