May 30-- Just made an appt with my Dr for June 18th. I'll be 10 weeks 4 days. I'm a little nervous to wait that long to see my Dr, but they said that was the "rule" they had. I've started my folic acid and prenatal vitamins. I feel a lot of cramping when I lay down and curl in my ball i sleep in. I think I'm going to have to get me a body pillow to ease my cramping and to keep me propped up so I don't sleep on my breast. They are the only symptom I'm having problems with really. I've started wearing sports bras to try to keep them from moving, and I support them with my arms when I'm driving just in case I hit a bump. My biggest fear now is a blighted ovum. I just can't wait to see that little one's heart beat!!! Then I'll know everything will be ok!!
May 31-- I am 8 weeks pregnant today--- Took another test yesterday about 7 o'clock pm to make sure my hormones were still rising! I'm scared to death of having another miscarriage (I've had 2--those stories will come later)!! I feel great except for my breast hurt so bad!!!! Other than that I don't feel pregnant at all--
June 15-- I am 10 weeks 1 day pregnant. I finally go to the doctor Monday!! Last week I had a scare with some bleeding and cramping. It has been a long 2 weeks. The prenatal vitamins are making me sick! I'll write more next week after I've been to see the doctor!
June 20-- My husband and I went to the Dr Monday. Everything is going good. We go back in 2 weeks to get our first sonograms done. We didn't get to hear the heartbeat b/c she said that I have a retroverted uterus (mine is pushed more towards my back). She said I'll get to see it on July 3rd (that's my appt). I'm still not real sick like. I feel nauseated constantly but no vomitting, I have started to slow down when I eat b/c I realize I'm not as hungry as I thought I was, and I haven't gained any weight yet. I start my 2nd trimester 2 weeks from tomorrow and can't wait!!
July 5-- Got my 1st sonogram done Tuesday. The baby didn't measure but 9 weeks and 4 days so the doctor knocked my due date back to Feb. 1st. A little headache since I thought that I was out of the miscarriage woods at 12 weeks. We also got to hear the heartbeat. It was 175. The doctor said that it was right in the middle where it's hard to guess a girl or boy. We are soooo excited. We found the crib that we had been looking for. It's a Jenny Lind crib and it was so pretty when we got it set up. I've gotten in the mood to rearrange the whole house. I've decided to make a door going into the utility room from our bedroom and to make a walk-in closet out of the other 1/2 of the utility room. Then I'm going to wallpaper the bathroom and replace the sink (I want a pedestal sink) and add some cabinets. Next, I want to sand the hardwood floor in the dining room and living room so I can restain it. I also want to restain the outside of the house to make it look nicer. I want to pull up the carpet in our bedroom and stain the concrete. I also want to repaint my bedroom and paint the utility room. We need to finish all of this before we do the baby room since we don't know what it is yet. My husband will have lots to do in 9 months to keep him busy!!! My next Dr appt is July 24th. I will have another sonogram done on this day and hopefully I will be 12 weeks by then. I'll update as things happen---
