About Us....

My name is Ann and I am engaged to a wonderful man named Sean. We have been together for 3 years now, and this is our second pregnancy. We got pregnant last year in January, but miscarried 3 months later. Sean is in the US Navy, and just got deployed for six months. One week after he left, I found out I was pregnant!! Now theres a good side to this, and a bad side. The good side is that he'll be here for when I am due, but the bad part is he won't be here until toward the end of my pregnancy. Which means he has to miss the nausea, morning sickness, cravings, doctor appointments, sonograms, and most important the mood swings, *lol*. I'm praying and keeping my fingers crossed that this pregnancy is the real thing, and that I carry all the way to full term, and get a healthy wonderful baby. Wish me luck! Hopefully I'll be able to update this site all the way until after I give birth!

Well, its been 2 1/2 weeks since I found out I was pregnant. I still have 5 more days until my first doc. appointment, and I'm so antsy and inpatient!! I want Friday, the 7th do hurry up and get here!! Well, I went through the nausea and morning sickness, but this past week I haven't really experienced any of it...I've had nausea, but the morning sickness seems to have dissappeared. My BB's are still sore, and I'm constintly going to the bathroom. I still get tired very easily, still having weird dreams, still getting horrible headaches, and I can't seem to get rid of this horrible taste out of my mouth!! I think i'm starting to freak myself out though. I really don't know wht I would do if I had anther M/C....two in one year...I wouldn't be able to handle it. Especially with Sean being away. Thats been really getting to me too. Its been 3 weeks and it feels like 3 months. I miss him, terribly, and I cry almost everyday because I wish he were here with me. 150 days and he'll be home. I'll be 7 months pregnant when he returns...right now that seems like forever away. My room mate thinks I'm further along than 6 weeks....If I am, that would rock!! But We'll see. Well, I'll be posting again on Friday...hopefully its with good news!!!

Well, I had my first doctor appointment, and ultra sound today. Peed in the cup, got the blood work done..and then it was time for th ultra sound. We saw the yok sac, but the doc. kept tellin me its still early to see anything distinct. She saw something she thinks might be the baby, and she measured it out and it measured to be about 7 weeks..well 6 weeks 6 days...but she wasnt even sure if it was the baby or not. I have another ultra sound and blood work on the 19th....thats the morning I'm flying out to New York to be with my family for Christmas. I'm still very nervous and still very scared. Most of the woman who are in their 7th week see the heart beat...some even hear it...and I'm nt even sure I have anything in there....I guess I just have to wait until the 19th.....man this is so stressful.

Well, one more week until my next doctors appointment, and one more week until I fly home for Christmas!! SO much happening in one day!! I'm gettin anxious for my doc. appointment. I feel alot better than I did last week...I'm not so scared anymore. Now I'm excited to see my baby and see its heart beat!! *lol* I've been waiting long enough!! I'm also hoping we can see the baby..even if its just a little bean!! That way I can get the sonogram picture and give it to my parents and my in laws and tell them I'm pregnant because they don't know yet!! Nausea has been kicking my butt and so has constipation!! WOW does that suck big time!! *lol* I don't think I've ever experience constipation until now!! *lol* Just another reminder that theres something in there!! Well, Im off to bed for now!!!

Man I can;t wait to tell everyone now!!! This is wonderful!!! I got a little bean in my belly!!! HAHA!!! This is awesome!!

Well, I just got back from Buffalo yesterday, and man do I have some major jetlag!! I went to bed at 8:30pm and got up at 5:30am!! *lol* Hopefully this wont last any longer than today!! But my trip was nice, and the reason why I wasn't on here was because for the life of me I couldn't remember my password!!! *lol* I still came on everyday to check on all you ladies, I just coudn't write to any of you!! But like I said, everything went good!! Everyone was really excited for us, except for Seans mom side of the family.... like his grandmother and his aunts and uncles. His parents were super excited!!! His mom told me that she told them all I was pregnant, but on Christmas Day when we went over there, not one person congratulated or asked me or said anything about it. It really mad me feel very uncomfortable and really sad, and when Sean called me later that night I was sure to tell him!! But he made me feel alot better about it and I eventually let it no get to me anymore!! But all in all it was nice, but I am very happy to be home!! My little bean kept me very nauseated and very tired the whole time and I can not believe I'm here at 10 weeks!!! How exciting is that!! My next doctors appointment is in 3 weeks on the 23rd...i think!! *lol* I should probably look for my appointment card!! Oh well, if I can't find it I'll just call!! A couple more weeks and we are out of the 1st trimester!!! I can't wait!! My next ultrsound, I'll be able to see what really looks like a real baby!!! *lol*

January 22, 2008:

Well, Its been awhile since I wrote. Just been working and missing Sean. I ordered a Fetal Heart Monitor a few weeks, thats was pretty cool!! Its hard because it picks up my own heart beat, but I got the digital one, so it tells me what the heart rate is, so I know the difference between mine and the babies. The other day I woke up from a nap and went to the bathroom, and when I wiped there was dark red/brown spotting. I freaked out because thats what the spotting looked like the last time when I miscarried. SO I went straight to the ER, where the doctor was a complete dick, and I really didn't find out anything besides my hormone level, and got the rhogam shot because I'm Rh negetive. Yesterday I had to go to the doctor to make sure the baby was still alive and all that. The doc. couldnt find the heart beat on the monitor, so she had to do an u/s. But she was doing everything really fast like she was in a hurry...I think its because they "fit me in" that morning. SO it was so fast all she was looking for was a heart beat, and we saw it for a second and that it all. It was so fast and so blurry because it was a portabe u/s machine that I really couldn't make out the baby at all. So instead of having my next real doc appointment tomorrow, I'll have to wait anothr 2 weeks, but I guess thats a good thing because then my chances of finding out what I'm having are higher!! So we'll see. I'm still getting some light spotting when I wipe...sometimes its like a light pink, and sometimes its a dark red/brown color...The doc said everything looked good yesterday so I guess I jus have to go with that for now. I'm just so nervous and scared. I so badly want to be a mother and be pregnant. I just continue praying and hoping for the best...the worst thing about all of this is that I don't have Sean here with me..I mean I have my really good friends, but its not the same with Sean being gone...

Well, I havent updated in a while. *lol* Been kinda lazy with it!! Well lets see, since the last update, the spotting stopped after about a week. I was put on bedrest and then it turned out that I had a yeast infection and thats wht was causing the spotting. SO thats good!! My last doc. appointment was about a week ago, and she checked for the babies heart, and felt my tummy to see hw far along my cervix is and we went through my history and talked about what I should be expecting in the next few weeks, and she also schedualed me an ultrasound for the 20th, so I can find out what I'm having!! YAYA!! I'm so excited!! So one more week until that!! I'm hoping Sean can call me during the appointment so we can find out together. But if not, then I'm going to have them put it in an envelope and I'm going to give it to my bestfriend, and when Sean can call I'll have her open it and tell us. Man I can not wait. I have yet to feel the baby. I think I might have felt it a couple times, but I'm not to sure!! I really want it to start moving around in there!! But I know I know, soon enough!! So thats about it, nothing to exciting. Still working my booty off, still get exhausted all the time, still peein my brains out. And the horrible headaches are back also, and they are NOT fun!!! Well, until next week!!!
