3 months

It is official.  I am 3 months pregnant.  I have seen several doctors by now. Had 1 ultra sound. and peed in cups!  Not to mention since this is my 3rd child I am starting to show already.

I have seen my fertility specialist....WHICH I did not need!  YAY!  But, they had to do an ultra sound to make sure all was ok to send me back to my regular dr.  All looked great!  So, I am back to the Sparta Clinic....which is VERY nice...for the drive/walk to my dr visits.

And yes I am showing already.  I am into the maternity jeans already....YUCK!  BUT, i will deal with them.  I just was not ready to be in them so soon!  The girls call them fake pants.  I think they over heard me say FAT pants!  lol

Heard the heart beat twice now....140-145.  Hoping the old wives take is correct this time!

As for any pain....Sciatic Nerve is going crazy this time around.  Some days it is hard to just move...let along try and go at normal pace.  YIKES  I hope that lets up soon!!!

2 months

I am officially 2 months preggers.  Well, 2 months 1 day.  ;)  to be exact.  But, I dont know who is counting!

I was not going to tell people until the 3 month mark.  WELL, that did not happen!  We made the one mistake of telling the kids.  OOOOOPS!  They have since anounced it at school.....gymnastics...girl scouts.....etc.   SOOOOO, needless to say.  EVERYONE seems to know.  I have, however, not announced it on the radio yet.  I am going to wait for another month before I do that.

I can tell you a few things about this pregnancy....I am WAY sicker, more emotional, and just plain icky with this one.  My girls were a piece of cake.  The only thing that told me I was pregnant was that the dr told me I was, the heart beat, and a growing belly.  Other then that?  No ill side effects.  SO, I ask myself.  Is this one a boy?  I don't want to get my hopes up....but could it be a boy?

I really want a boy. lol If you could not tell.  I have NO idea how to raise a boy, but i still want one. I know I will be relying on my friends/family that have boys for help.  I also know that Clay wants a boy....as all men do!  Plus, he wants a boy to carry on the family name (his brother has 2 girls).

I know the sex has already been determined....and that when we go for an ultrasound we MAY find out.  But the man upstairs is the only one who knows and has any say in just what gender this little precious baby will be.  And I will be content either way. ;)

Well, THAT did not take long! :)

Here I have been preparing my (at the time) soon to be husband and his family, it will take me awhile to get pregnant!  That does not come easy for me.  I have to take meds and what not for a few months....blah blah blah.  I have been preparing them for that for over a year now!

I go in for my yearly appointment....happens to just over 2 weeks from the wedding.  She takes me off birth control (as we want to get things started asap).  She does tell me there is a slight chance of getting pregnant in this month.  BUT, don't get your hopes up...it is a long shot.  So we thought what the heck...lets give it a try!

We mark the calendar as to when is the "right" time to well....you know. ;)

We go on with our lives....go thru the wedding....go on our honeymoon.....come back to reality and go back to work.  We have a meeting with the specialist on August 29th.....telling him all that my regular Dr had told me.  He said ok.  He orders me some meds to take starting on Sept 6th IF the blood test came back negative.


So, we go on with our day....knowing it probably did not happen!  I take a home pg test on wednesday...Negative.  SO....we go have a fun time the Friday of Labor Day Weekend. And I mean FUN night!  :)  Lots of beer....lots of smoking!  A true party night.

The next morning i wake up...expecting a HUGE hangover.  Nope!  just have to pee.  I get out of bed and wondering how i feel so well.  Then I notice my belly feels full!  Oh...must be from all the Tap Beer.   EH...that will go away.  It did not.....my pants were uncomfortable.  This is just odd.  Owell it's just gas.

I get home that night.....go to the bathroom....and figure what the heck.  I have an extra pg test......so i peed on it.   not even 30 seconds go by.......and their are 2 lines!  I make myself walk away.....it probably will go away.  I am not supposed to stare at the test.  :)

I go back after 4 minutes.  and the LINES ARE THERE!  BOTH OF THEM!


the negative side of me came out.....it is wrong.  I can't be.  I have never had one of these things work....and I did not take any meds to get preggers.  I have to take meds.  I had to take them for the first 2 for months before it happens.  This can't be right.  Well, we have a blood test on Tuesday.....that will not lie!

Tues comes....still "feeling" preggers.....but afraid I am wrong.  I go in....and wait for the results.  I can't wait anymore.....so I call.  IT WAS RIGHT!  I am PREGNANT!

AYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!

How did this happen?   Oh yeah.....lol  we did technically try!  :)
