(I totally copied that from a friend who announced her pregnancy via facebook-- so cute, I thought!)
I am 10 weeks today, and we are SO excited!
I've been dying to write something on here to let those of you who follow know the news. I am not ready to project it nationwide (a la facebook) yet, but I figured if (God forbid) something bad happened, I would more than likely write about it on here, so I should go ahead and share the news! (I didn't tell anyone outside of family and a few close friends that I was pregnant with Cal until 13 weeks...I am a little early this time....still nervous....).
We wanted our kids to be close in age: Eddie and his sister Carrie are 22 months apart, and me and my brother are 24 months apart. I have a bunch of friends who are trying for their second and it was taking a while...we thought it could take us a while too. I knew I needed to get my cycle back to normal after nursing for 10 months and not having a period for almost 2 years (!!!), I realized that getting back on track could take a while. Well, apparently it didn't. The kids will be 20 months apart! (feel free to start sending me anti-anxiety meds now...)
This little nugget will be born in May, God willing! My due date is May 25th, but they will take him/her early since it will be a c-section.
We had our first ultrasound last week and everything is looking great! The little one had a SUPER fast heart rate, 175, which can be an indicator of the gender. It was true with Cal, so we will see with this one! The ultrasound technician said she would put money on it being a girl. I just want to find out! Wish I could find out today! (I am not one for surprises....)
I have been feeling good. Almost too good. It worries me sometimes because I am feeling so well, I have to remind myself that I am pregnant. I am rarely nauseous and I have yet to puke, but I am not a throw-upper, so that isn't too weird. I've been more tired, but could also be because I have cut wayyyyy back on the caffeine and I am chasing Cal around like CRAZY. I felt okay with Cal for the most part, but I think I felt more "pregnant" with him.
My 10 week appointment is today and I am looking forward to talking with the doctor about how well I am feeling. I am not wishing sickness on myself, but I am looking for some symptoms....
I'll keep you posted! Just had to share the news!
xoxo,
