When I found out I was pregnant I was amazed. I am divorced and was married for 5 years. Through those 5 years I was under the impression that I would never have children. We never really tried, but we never tried to stop it, if you catch my drift. I knew it wasnt my ex because he got a girl pregnant right after we split up.

In november I went to the doctor for my first real exam. The next day the nurse called me to tell me I was pregnant. She couldn't believe I wasn't excited. I told her I had felt I had been several times and was afraid to be excited. I went back in every other day for a week to have my blood checked and discovered that we lost the baby. I talked with the doctor and she said to just keep trying, it happens all the time.

The next two months went normal then I noticed I hadnt started again. I took a test, and it was a clear positive. I went back to the doctor that day. Every day after I was just waiting to find I had started when I went to the bathroom. I never did.

I worked on a horse farm right out of high school and always wondered if the physical labor was a contributer. For the last 5 or 6 months I have worked as a receptionist.

Kiel and I have known eachother our whole lives. He actually grew up as one of my brothers best friends. We are so happy and he treats me sooo good. We have been together for almost a year and a half and were planning to get married this year, but have now decided to wait till next year.

He is soo nervous and super suportive. I feel so bad all the time and he never complains about my whining or never ending naps.

We go for our 1st ultrasound on May 1st and will hopefully find out what we are having. I am secretly hoping for a girl.

Best of luck to everyone!!

April 23, YAY, I am finally feeling the baby move, or more like kick. I feels like my stomach has a twitch. Like you get in your leg or arm. It makes me smile every time I feel it. And feeling much much better, hopefully it sticks this time.

April 26, Didnt get much sleep last night. I tossed and turned all night. I woke up a couple times to the baby poking me. Im so excited to have my ultrasound on tuesday. I cant wait to find out what were having so I can call it a he or she instead of it. But, Im pretty sure its a girl. Hoping anyways.

April 30, Ok I am soo frustrated. I am sooo tired of hearing that Im not showing. I feel the stinker move everyday. I know its in there. People are making me soo mad. My stomach was very small to start with because I am/was very fit. I can tell a huge difference. I just want to say SHUT UP to them. I have waited so long for this moment and it really makes me mad. ok Im done

ITS A BOY!!!!

Weston Blake Schneider

We couldnt be happier. I am on cloud nine. He weighs a woppin 1/2 lb right now and everything looks GREAT.

May 15th, I think I am fighting the flu. Its so hard to tell if its just more morning sickness or actually to flu. Not that there is much of a difference. Lately I have been feeling sooo tired. I sit a work and can hardly keep my eyes open. But on a good note. My sister who is due a week after me (which was totally not planned) is getting her ultrasound today. I cant wait to find out what shes having. This is such a crazy experience.

OK MY SISTERS HAVING A GIRL. It couldnt have worked out more perfectly.

Crazy guys, Kiel is the smaller one.

look how skinny we were, so depressing.

June 1, I must say this is a good day even though I had a blow out with my mom this morning. Kiel and I are staying with my mom, dad, sister, her fiance, and my little brother while our house is under major demolition. Thats an ordeal in itself. But, for some reason mom elects me to take her to her car she left last night (for no reason) this morning. Then proceeds to gripe at me for moving too slow to suit her. Well Im sorry, I am fat and grumpy in the mornings. So we had a chat about it.

But I am feeling really good right now, other than little aches and pains. For once I dont feel like vomiting. Work is going smooth and Kiel is finally off call today so we can actually go out to eat for dinner. After I take a nap of course :)

JUNE 25, I am suffering from my super big problem of impatience. Im so glad this is a busy year for me. I think I would go crazy. Im really starting to stress about different things concerning Weston. Like, am I doing the wrong thing by working and putting him in day care. I realize people do it all the time, but what will be the outcome of a youngster in daycare? I just do see how I can do it any other way. It takes me FOREVER to fall asleep at night from thinking of a million different things that really probably arent that important - and of course when I wake up I cant even remember what I was worried about. I also think, will he have a head full of black hair when he is born like I did? Who will he look like? I sure hope he doesnt get colic. How will I possibly keep him entertained? I guess Im kinda freaking out, but still I cannot wait for that day to come when I can hold my little man and see his daddy holding him.

AUGUST 6th, Ok..... I am tired and I am swollen. I sure hope that the swelling Im experiencing is normal. Nobody seems to be worried about it except me. I just keep thinking things cant get any worse than this. Whew, will I be glad to have my body back. But, I am not forgetting how great it is to feel him move. Although sometimes he can really hurt me, I love feeling him shuffle around. For some reason he seems to really enjoy jamming what ever it is into my ribs and leaving it there. It sure puts a hitch in my get along. I am still working and am sure glad to be, even though I am tired all the time. If I had to sit at home, I would go crazy thinking of everything that needed to be done. Im hoping that staying busy will keep my mind off the time and he will be here in no time.
