I'm Pregnant

...Was exactly what I told Robbie when I found out the news. Realizing that i was finally pregnant was the best news I could have ever received. The impending wait time to see the doctor was less then exciting, but was only going to have to wait a few short days, which seemed like forever in my book. We had our first ultrasound at 5weeks4 days. To say there was something to look at would be an exaggeration. It was a spot on the screen. That's all, a spot. Not even a heart beat at this point, to early into the pregnancy to pick it up. Not that it mattered that it was only a spot, i was pregnant, and that's what counted. Excited to show my mom the ultrasound picture, I drove to her house and asked her if she wanted to see my "Spot"? My mom knew i was pregnant, but seeing the ultra sound made it more real. The name Spot has since stuck, and thats what we call the baby now. Here is Spots first picture :)

Again with the waiting game. 2 weeks and 2 days later we went back to the doctor to check for a heart beat. I was beyond nervous. I had zero pregnancy symptoms besides being hungry. No morning sickness, no nausea, not tired, my breast didn't hurt, and the list goes on. Everything seemed normal to me. I told the doctor that i was a nervous wreck, and was about to cry. Thankfully we go right down to business and started the ultra sound. The first thing the doctor said was "I'm finding a heart beat". Que instant tears now. Here is spots picture at 7weeks6days. a little bigger, but still not looking like a baby



Next appointment was at 9weeks4days, just to double check things and to get a more accurate due date. We finally have what appears to be a baby. Not just a spot any more!



 
At this appointment we scheduled my NT scan for Halloween, 12w4days. Robbie and i wanted to announce on Halloween with some cute shirts that we bought online. We wanted one more official check before we were comfortable spreading the new with the rest of our family and friends. Here are two more pictures :) I will try to blog more frequently to keep family and friends up to date with appointments, pictures and all that jazz. Our next appointment is scheduled for November 28th. Praying for more good news.
