The baby bomb is ticking.
Text #1 "I'm taking all the baby stuff to the (storage) container, bc Kaden says that ur not growing up ur baby yet. He's an expert." (Kaden is my wise 4-year-old nephew.)
Text #2 "Wait, Kaden says what if ur in Florida and u have ur baby. Now I just don't know."
I found out on my 28th birthday that I'm pregnant, ahhhhh! I had a pretty good idea before I took the test since I'd been nauseous and going to bed at 7 p.m. all week, but we wanted to save the actual test for my birthday. I begged George to let me take it earlier. Who knew peeing on a stick could be so exciting, haha! So at 5 am on my birthday I woke up feeling nauseous, and I had to go, so I took the test and passed! I jumped on poor George. He was a little confused at first because he's such a hard sleeper, but then it hit him :) We're going to have a baby!
Oh yes and my brother-in-law, Chris, refuses to have a baby of his own, so he feels it necessary to insist that everyone else have babies. And he kept warning me that he better find out first. So he had the honors of receiving my actual pee stick in the mail. I thought about sending him a sample of urine and a new test so he'd literally be the 'first' to know. Hahaha you are welcome Chris!
I've been nauseous since week 6 and throwing up since week 7. It's frustrating because nothing seems to make this 'flu' go away. Why is this a side-effect of pregnancy??? It seems so unnatural. I try to remember that all the sickness is not terminal, and it will end up with a cute lil bebe down the road. And they do say that nausea and vomiting are signs that the baby is healthy, so I can't complain! I've found that warm vanilla milk, snacking, baths, and resting lots seem to help some. Let's just hope this pukage goes away after the first trimester!
We had our first Doctor's appointment this week. It was SOOO neat to get to see our lil 2" baby and hear the baby's heart beating soooooo fast! 164 beats per minute fast! I could have stayed there looking at the ultrasound 'tv' all afternoon. The baby looked so relaxed in there hanging out. It was so neat, George and I could not stop smiling.
I'm 12 weeks along and our lil monster is due on Halloween! Oh yes, and George 'knows' it's a boy.

Congratulations!! That is such exciting news. I'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well, but you are right...it will eventually be over, although when you're pregnant 9 months is a long time. The time goes much faster once the babes are here. Good luck!

Ok, I'm sitting here at work and all of a sudden for some reason I though, "I'd better check Liz's blog. I haven't checked it for a while and they've been married for almost 2 years now. I bet she's pregnant!" Lo and behold...I checked it and found out that you are!!! Yay!!!! I'm soo excited for you guys! Hope you start feeling better soon.

wooo hoooo! soooo excited for you! lol.
Congrats Congrats!! We are very excited for you both! Can't wait to find out what you're having!
congrats! That is so exciting. I feel for you on the morning sickness. Shelton gave me this tip after nothing helped. He said, "Why don't you just eat stuff that won't be bad coming back up!" Ha ha. So I drank carnation instant breakfast every morning (chocolate) and it wasn't bad coming up. ha ha. Hope you start feeling better soon! and can't wait to find out what you're having. (oh and shelton also insists that guys "just know" what the baby is. he "just knew we were having a girl." maybe george "just knows" too!)
Congratulations! How exciting. There are some not so fun things that go along with being preggo but it is definatly worth it in the end...even if the sickness goes beyond the 1st trimester.
Congratulations!!!
