Five Down...Four to Go!




I have officially reached the half way mark. I had my twenty week appointment on Wednesday, which means I am five months pregnant. I never thought I would make it this far!! I had a rough three and half -four months. What's with calling morning sickness "morning" sickness?? Guess I haven't figured that one out when you're throwing up all day long and feel like absolute death. Everyone keeps telling me this little one will be worth it, but honestly there were days' when I would think to myself, "what in God's name was I thinking!" Now, I know it has all been worth it and baby isn't even born yet. I started to feel baby move for the first time on September 26. At first I didn't even know it was movement, it actually felt like a muscle spasm, but after several I figured it out. Jeff got to feel baby move for the first time October 12! I guess the joys of being a mom--all the pain you go through is definately worth experiencing all the "firsts!" Everything looks good as far as development of the baby. Baby's heart rate was 154, again! Although we don't know what we are having I have my own personal suspision...however, time can only tell!


August 14, 2008 Sonogram. Baby's heart rate was 171.

New User...Beware!!!!

I decided to try this blog thing out. I really enjoy reading other family member's blogs so I thought what the heck. I should be good at keeping up with it for now, but when the little one arrives I'm not real sure what will happen! I guess time can only tell.

I am now twenty weeks pregnant and anxiously awaiting the new addition to our family. Life can be pretty boring with just Jeff and I right now, but I'm sure those nights of dinner, movie, drinks, spuratic thoughts and actions will all soon come to an end. I'm so used to getting in the car and going that I am a little scared for what it will be like with a baby. I hope I don't leave the baby behind some time! All those feelings of not knowing what to expect, fear, and nervousness, are all followed by the thought of how excited we both are to have a family! March 1 cannot come soon enough!
