She's Here!!

Our baby Anna Christine arrived at 10:51am on Monday, May 28th weighing in at a mighty 8lbs 12 oz and 20 1/2 inches long!! She's healthy and happy and growing like mad!! I thought babies were supposed to lose weight after their first week, our little girl was up to 8lbs 14 oz!!

She's already lifting here head and making the cutest noises!!!


Other than REALLY tired, mom and dad are also doing great and we can't spend enough time cuddling and watching our precious baby Anna. Who knew you could spend hours and hours just watching a sleeping baby!!

So, we're not decided about posting baby pictures on the web so if you haven't received an e-mail from me yet with Anna pictures drop me an e-mail and I will add you to the list for the next round!!!


PS The numbers are in...... no one was able to guess all three for our baby Anna but Nana, KH, LJ, and LK got two out of three!!

And a Few More.....

A few more guesses for baby Massig:

Nana: Girl, 8lbs12oz on Tuesday (29)
Opa: Boy, 10lbs on Monday (28)

All Bets Are On!

So we have started a friendly game of what sex, how big, and when our little bundle of Massig joy is coming!

So far we have:

JS: Boy, 9lbs4oz on Saturday (26)

JN:Girl, 8lbs7oz on Friday (25)

ON: Boy, 7lbs13oz on Saturday (26)

KH: Girl, 8lbs9oz on Monday (28)

DM: Boy, 9lbs0oz on Tuesday (29)

JM: Girl, 9lbs0oz on Sunday (27)

MN: Girl, 8lbs7oz on Thursday (24)

Any day now....

Well.... no baby yet, but officially my due date is not until Tuesday (May 22) so we've still got some waiting to do!! I have basically finished all of my to do list though, so I am feeling ready and would be more than happy to have this baby today! We completely finished getting the nursery all cleaned up and set up so I'll take a picture this weekend and I'll try to get some pictures posted for everyone!

Aaaaaah........

So I had my last official day of work on Monday, and now I am just trying to relax and sleep. It sounds great in principal but I've been too busy the last few days getting things wrapped up and finished so we're somewhat ready for when Baby Massig wants to show their face to the world!! The doctor said I measuring at 40 weeks (technically I am only at 37) so we're either having a baby sooner than later or I will be birthing a GIANT. Realistically and unfortunately it is probably the latter...... :-0 !

We're getting super excited and can't wait to introduce our little angel to you all!!!

Could be Any Day!

Okay, so I decided that I would write about last Friday's hospital episode today as you'll see two posts ago. Well.....1/2 hour after I finished that post I got ANOTHER call from the doctor's office to go in for a Non-Stress Test ASAP! Everything again is great, the doctor said it was the healthiest heart beat and fetal movement they had seen all day! But they are still watching the amniotic and now I have to go to a specialist ultrasound. I'll keep you posted, but the doctor's are still really happy with how the baby is doing they just want to keep an eye on things.

On another note......here's a pic of the Nursery!

Getting Bigger Everyday!

So I thought it was time for a belly update! Here are the last few belly pictures!

Here we are at 30 weeks.......

...and today at 35 Weeks!

The Countdown is on!

Only 5 weeks before our actual due date! We had a bit of a scare last Friday, an ultrasound to confirm the the baby had turned (which is REALLY good news!) also said that my amniotic fluid was low. I got a call from my Doctor on Friday morning telling me to get to the hospital for a fetal non-stress test!! In the end everything was fine, mom and baby are happy and healthy, but it just reminded us that Baby Massig could be here any day!! Oh yeah, and there is nothing wrong with my fluid, the ultrasound people are just CRAZY!!! :o)

If anyone didn't know what a 30 week old baby looks like in mom's womb, here you go! The baby wieghs approximately 3 lbs and is moving constantly. The little sunshine seems to really like sitting on my bladder, so I am basically on an hourly or sometimes every 15 minute pee routine!

I am feeling pretty good and really enjoying my pregnancy! Still tired, but my back ache is getting better, probably a combination of pre-natal massage and pre-natal yoga.

Here is my warning to all pregnant ladies out there, no bowling after 30 weeks!!! I went at 29 weeks, no problem! Last Wednesday, the day after I turned 30 weeks, I went 10 pin bowling with work and on the third frame of the first game I stepped into the lunge that you do to chuck your ball downt he lane and WHAMMO! I pulled my groin! So now I really look like a prego! I have to waddle everywhere! Oh well, I am taking it easy and hopefully by next weekend I'll only be waddling because I'm 7 months pregnant. :o)

Only 10 to go!

It seems like Christmas around here with all the new baby stuff!!! Who thought a little munchkin, weighing less than 10 lbs (as a Massig baby we may be looking at less than 15 lbs - Yikes!), would need so much stuff!

Tomorrow marks the 30 weeks mark!! Wow! Only 10 weeks to go! Actually, it will probably be more like 11 or 12, but you never know! Feeling pretty good, a sore back and taking lots of naps, but overall it's fun feeling the baby move all the time and see it react to me moving around, eating, and drinking. I've even felt a foot or hand every now and then and it feels like you can almost hold it!

The Growing Belly

This is the ever expanding belly at 22 weeks! No more nausea and plenty of happy hormones!

Pregnant in mexico!

Just enough belly at 20 weeks to show it off in the new bikini!










Look at my hotty husband!

Hello Baby Massig

Here are a few of my favourite ultrasound pictures. Baby Massig has their mouth open already in this first one, must be a talker like mom and dad!

And we're off!!

Welcome to the Massig Family blog! Starting sometime in late August 2006 we became a family of three, well actually, the third one is still resting comfortably in my GIANT belly! Hopefully we'll have some belly pics to post soon!
