Baby Bump Part II

Until this morning we hadn't updated in a while, so sorry about that. I'm sure most of you know things have been a little crazy lately around the Myers household. Everything is fine with Baby Myers, but as I mentioned before things with work have not gone well. To make a long story short, my work is being taken over by the Independence School District and they have decided to terminate the therapy department. They are, however still going to let us into the building to continue seeing our kids there at this time so that is good. So, last Friday I started my own business, Jamie Myers Occupational Therapy, LLC, and will begin seeing kids independently through Missouri First Steps and hopefully through Missouri Medicaid in the near future as well. I'm not sure how well this will work out, but if it does it would allow me to work 3 days a week, which would be wonderful when the baby is born. But, if it doesn't then that just means God has another plan for us and we will try to take things as they come.

As for the baby, you can see I have begun to get a baby bump which seems to keep growing, esp. in the last week! We are still waiting to feel the baby move, but that probably won't happen for another month or 2. And again still waiting for Dec. 8th when we find out if Baby Myers is a boy or a girl!!! We've had some opinions, but of course nobody is for sure yet:) Can't wait to post those pics!!

Baby Bump


Just took this picture of Jamie before she left for work. A slight baby bump is becoming apparent.
Nothing new to discuss other than the K-State Wildcats are currently in first place in the North. That's pretty exciting to the two of us!!
Next Dr. checkup is November 10th, so we'll let you know of anything after we have that appointment.

14 weeks

It's been a while since we've posted, but we've had a lot going on lately. Unfortunately my job has been super stressful lately. It's been back and forth for a couple months about whether or not we are closing due to financial difficulty and we have recenlty found out that the administration and therapy staff will most likely be cut as of November 1st. As for me, I plan to continue seeing the kids I can independently through Missouri's birth to 3 program. We are just praying that this will work out for us.

Baby Myers is doing just fine. We had a doctor's appointment last Friday where I was able to get the flu shot. The doctor strongly recommended I get the H1N1 shot as well, but it's not available yet so I have a little more time to think about it. We were able to hear the baby's heart beat with the little machine this time, which was really cool! Heart rate is still in the 170's:) I've been feeling much better lately and am slowly have more difficulty comfortably fitting into my pants. Other than that we are just thankful that the baby seems to be healthy for now. We will hopefully be updating soon!!
