10 Weeks and Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm 10 weeks today...double digits! Only a couple more weeks to go until i'm done with the first trimester!!!! Today is also Thanksgiving. I'm excited to see my family. Most of them know about the baby, but it will be fun to talk about it in person. I'm still on the climb to feeling better. I still have moments of feeling yucky, but for the most part its been ok. I'm eating a lot more, a lot of fruit! That is the one thing i can eat at any time and always sounds good. I still feel like I'm having a boy...we have about 10 weeks still until we can find out tho. So basically, we have a calm 10 weeks because after we find out...let the planning begin!!! I can plan colors for the baby's room and start buying stuff!! Most importantly, we can really focus on deciding on a name.

Well I'm off to rest up before the big day out! Happy Thanksgiving!

8 weeks!

Well a lot has happened since i last wrote! Last week we had our first ultrasound. We were able to see the baby and see and hear the heartbeat! It was pretty neat to see what was in there since I can't feel anything and I'm not showing yet. Everything checked out fine and the baby was right on track with size. We got some pics to take home too!

We've told a few more people! We saw Paul's family last weekend and told them the news. They were very excited! Paul has also told a couple of friends and coworkers!

Today we had another doctors appoint to go over my bloodwork and family history. Everything checked out great! My next appointment is December 10 and we should be able to hear the heartbeat again! I'll also be at the very end of my first trimester at that time as well!

Symptoms:
I definitely have a lot more symptoms than when i last wrote, but it hasn't been terribly bad. I have good and bad days. I mostly feel crappy all of the time and don't feel like eating much. I'm looking forward to getting my appetite back and feeling like going out and doing stuff.

The beginning!

Well It's official, WE'RE EXPECTING! We found out October 14th.  We knew we wanted to start trying a couple months after the wedding, but I didn't expect it to happen this soon. We're super excited, but still a little nervous too. As of today, I'm 5weeks, 5 days. Since it's still early, we're trying not to do too much planning until we're out of the first trimester. It's so hard tho, there's so much to think about!

Symptoms:
So far i don't have a ton of symptoms. Sometimes i feel kinda yucky, but the main symptom i have is bloating. I have bad gas pains and always feel like i need to burp. I'm praying that my next 6 weeks or so don't get much worse than this.


My first Dr. Appt. 
Today i had my first doctor's appointment to confirm the pregnancy. Everything looks good so far, but there's not much they can see as of now. Next week, I have an ultrasound and we should hear the heartbeat! I think once we see that, it will definitely be more real.
