Well we've joined the blogging world now that we have a little one on the way! We figure this will be a great way to keep everyone up to date and chronicle our journey through this whole new chapter in our lives. We found out we were pregnant at the end of August. Even though we were planning nothing could of prepared us for that feeling we had when we saw the line on the pregnancy test confirming it. I had already taken a couple that came out negative. I guess it was too early to tell because a few days later we took one more. We were expecting to see a negative again but this time a second line popped up! We both looked at it at the same time and jumped away as if it was going to bite us! We couldn't believe it, and then a wave of excitement and happiness came over us.
Our first doctor's appointment was September 30th. It was the longest wait of our lives but worth every second. Seeing our little nugget, and the heart beating on the ultrasound was amazing. A wave of relief passed over me when I saw that little flickering on the screen and heard the fast little heartbeat. 178 bpm! Fast little one which means everyone who believes in that old wive's tale keeps telling us we're having a girl. Looking at Nick's side of the family I think the odds are against us for having a girl but we'll find out for sure December 20th. We don't care either way, as long as we have a healthy baby!
We are so happy but of course it is the first trimester which means I have been feeling sick, tired, and I think Nick would say moody, haha! I feel tired all the time. I could fall asleep at any given moment, even right now as I type. I'm so tired of being tired, I feel like such a lazy bum. Morning sickness has gotten the better of me a lot of days but I'm hoping, because the past few days haven't been that bad, that it is passing. Other than that I am looking forward to the end of the first trimester, two more weeks, and then our next appointment at the end of October. Until next time!
