Almost Three Months...

Well my first pregnancy has been pretty good to me this far. I have had a few queesy days but besides being bloated all the time and a few other unpleasant things...lol I have felt petty good. I haven't had any cravings yet.... although Cody bought a jug of chocolate milk the other day and I just can't get enough of it. We just had our second ultrasound last week which was really exciting. We never really new what a miracle truly was until we saw our baby the second time on that monitor. The size of a prune and a heartbeat of 160 somthing bpm with all these major organs already created in this tiny baby. There are no right words to explain the feeling when we saw our babys heart beat again and to know that everything was still fine. It is truly a miracle. I have been so paranoyed and worried about the first trimester that somthing is going to go wrong. There's just so much that happens in the first three months and especially with the scare that we had, I have been such a nervous reck. I know it's not good for you or for the baby to stress your self out but I couldn't help myself. But after the second ultrasound I have been much better and more relaxed. I definitely don't want to go through the rest of this pregnancy with fear because it would take away from so much. So from now on I am going to have more faith and just enjoy every minute of it.

We have so much to look forward too, we are so excited for all these firsts. This is just the beginning of such an amazing journey. Here are some pics of the ultrasound. They aren't as clear as our first ultrasound because she didnt zoom in on the baby, but here are the first photos of our little peanut !!!!

Were expecting !!!

Cody and I found out on June 7th, 2007 that we are expecting a BABY and we are soooo Excited. I think we are still in disbelief. I took five pregnancy tests within a week not including a doctors test. I even called the number on the back of the pregnancy test to talk to a nurse to ask if it was possible to have false positives!! I know ..i Know..LoL. I just can not believe that I am carrying another life somewhere inside of me. We had our first ultrasound on June 26th at 7 weeks pregnant. We got to see our baby for the first time. It was the best thing we have ever seen and a moment we will never forget. We could see the shape of the head and the little body. The best part of the ultrasound was to see the babys heartbeat pumping like crazy. It was so amazing and an undescribable feeling to see the hearbeat and to know that everything was okay. We had a little scare and it was just so wonderful to know that everything was fine. I remember going to the change room and I just started to cry. I was so overwhelmed with emotion and just so so happy and greatful the baby was okay. Four days earlier the nurse at the hospital had told us I was probably experiencing a "spontaneous abortion" which is the medical term for a miscarriage. So you could just imagine our relief to see the babys heartbeat. I will never take this pregnancy for granted after that experience. It is truly a miracle and such a blessing. Here are some photos of when we first found out. ENJOY !!
