Well most of you already know but for those of you who do not, we are PREGNANT again!!! I have been waiting to tell everyone until after my doctor's appointment which was today. According to the dates of my last period, I am 8 weeks and 5 days, however based on the size of the baby today, he said I was only 6 weeks and 2 days. So that was confusing. I was able to hear the strong heartbeat which was very comforting. Ashlyn and my mom went with me.
My DR wants to see me again on Monday just to check me again. Because of my last miscarriage he just wants to keep a close eye on things for awhile which I'm very happy about.
We told Ashlyn the day I took the test. She is very excited however sometimes docent believe me because my belly doesn't look like a belly with a baby in it just yet :)
As of right now my due date is May 15, 2010. We are very excited. We have been trying for this little all year so I am truly thankful.
As far as how I'm feeling? Well, I'm hungry...ALL THE TIME. OMG it's really annoying. I'm not one of those that throw up and feel better. I'm one that if I feel hungry, I get nauseous and have to eat. This is like every hour or less. Talk about weight gain ugh. I've been pretty tired too. So all of which are good, healthy symptoms.
Now that I finally told everyone, I can keep everyone updated. Please keep us in your prayers that all goes well with this pregnancy. Any tips for good snacks please share, although sometimes nothing sounds good. ha. Oh the joys of pregnancy.

Congratulations! I was so sick with Eli! It hit around week 5-6 and lasted for about a month & a half (so, not as bad as some). I never threw up but was constatly nauseous. One of the snacks that I could tolerate was PB & J. I could only eat half of one at a time though. Protien is really good for morning sickness/nausea! I actually lost 8 lbs and in the middle of that my NP told me to get some Carnation Instant Breakfast which has all the important nutrients in it too. I ate a lot of crackers during that time too! I found that keeping hard candy around helped me. I had to have somethng in my mouth at all times to curb those yuckies (although it didn't curb it.. just helped a litle). I went through A LOT of jolly ranchers! :)
yipeeeeee! so excited for you and your family!!
WHAT? You're pregnant? I guess I need to read your blog more often! :P
