9w appointment

Everything is looking good.  Got to see the h/b too!  That was the best part of the u/s.  Baby was head down and you can see the umbilical cord too.  (see the white line?)

Eeek!!!!

8w6d

^ That's where I'm at now.  Still feeling pretty good.  I wish sometimes, that I had some kind of sickness.  Other than having really full breasts that's all I got.   I've got some brownish spotting since Thursday night.  I called my dr and he said not to worry about it.  It's normal and to be expected.  I thought it might have been because I was dehydrated, but I'm drinking almost a gallon a day.  I'm trying to take it easy, I also found that if I'm doing a lot of lifting, I get it.  So I have to be more cautious.  My next appointment is tomorrow.  I'm excited and nervous.  I'm excited to be able to see him/her again and nervous that they are going to tell me that he/she stopped growing. I know that will always be a fear of mine until I start feeling him/her.  Fingers crossed that everything is fine tomorrow!  

Lookie over there --->

Yep, that's right.  I am indeed pregnant.  I never thought this would happen to me, let alone this year.  So now this blog is going into a different direction.  I totally understand if you don't want to follow me anymore.  If you are my FB friend, please don't say anything about it.  I'm not ready to 'come out' yet.

So let me tell you how it happened!!  Well, we know how 'it' happened, lol.  But how I found out.  I thought AF was due to come on May 2nd.  I was moody and crampy and all the symptoms of AF.  When she didn't show, I thought, ah, well maybe I'm a little late, but I'll test in the AM.  So, May 3rd, I got up at my normal time and got out my IC's and 2 tests that I had bought from the dollar store....and lo and behold both came out positive within seconds.  I had to wait until 9 am to call my Dr's.  Got a hold of them and was able to be seen the same day.  Not really sure what I was expecting from the first appt but I was nervous.  After the room was cleaned, they brought me into the u/s room.  And then that's when I saw the little black circle with the little white line.  Total shock.  I was told that I was due on 12/29 and that I was about 5w5d.  After I picked up my jaw, I was told that I have to go do blood work and to come back on May 25th.  I hope when I go back I'll be able to see the h/b since I wasn't able to then.

As far as symptoms, (knocking on wood) I have none.  No nausea, no vomiting, just a few food aversion and hungry every few hours.  I had to go to Motherhood Maternity and get some newer bras....yep, I've grown a full cup size.  My boobs are not mine.  They are full and heavy!  I also got some maternity pants just because my pants now are snug and it looks like I have a fat roll hanging over, lol.  I mean, I could wear my other pants, but the bloat is bad.  And I did buy a beband, and I'm sorry, it doesn't do me any good.

So yea....here I am, pregnant.  Holy Shit!!!

Changes are a coming!

Stay tuned...... :)
