First Pre-Natal Appointment

We had our first pre-natal appointment today, at 9weeks 4days. Our Doctor forewarned us that it is still fairly early to detect and hear the heartbeat, but that he would try anyway. Well, he found it but it was so quiet we couldn't hear it; it registered at 161 - 167 bpm on the doppler. Even though we couldn't hear it, it's still amazing to know that a little miracle is growing inside of me! I had a full physical as well to make sure my body is in working order and prepared for this baby!

I have been very sick; not just in the morning (whoever named it morning sickness obviously was a man...or a women who didn't know what she was talking about haha). I like to call this "all day sickness". Anyway the Doctor prescribed me Diclectin so we will see if this works! Cross your fingers for me please!

6 Weeks

And the tummy begins...

PREGNANT!

I started this blog on January 14, 2010....I have decided to go back to the day I found out I was pregnant and enter everything that I had kept in my journal up until we had our baby!

So here it goes:

We decided in March 2008 that we wanted to have a baby. I went off of birth control and we decided that if I got pregnant great, if not we weren't going to stress over it. I kept track of my next 12 cycles (in days) 35, 24, 26, 30, 25, 29, 22, 30, 27, 23, 31, 28. It became quite apparent that I was irregular and wasn't going to be able to predict when I ovulated. January 2009 and I still wasn't pregnant so we thought we would "try". I bought a ovulation test kit, a thermometer and Pre-Seed. January 23 was cycle day 1, and from there we started to "try". On February 25, 2009 at 10:30pm I had a positive pregnancy test!

It's faint, but it's still there!
