hello, my name is Katie and i just found out I'm pregnant! This will be my first child and I'm excited and terrified at the same time! My fiance is sooo happy, he has been waiting for this for a long time. we have been together for 8 years and have been engaged for 3 years. he is a little older and is feeling his biological clock more than me. we on a whim thought we would try a little to get pregnant and it happened in only a couple of months! we really did not expect it this fast. i don't have a doctor and have gone to any kind in 5 years. i called around and was surprised to know you can't get an appointment until 8 weeks. i still feel like it's not real unless i see a doc, even thought i have two at home test that clearly are positive and have yet to get my period....

I think too many people know we are pregnant! I am so afraid to mc. i had a mc yrs ago and never even went to a doc. how stupid! i was young and happy about it but know it is freaking me out. this all feels so surreal, like I'm making it up, it's a dream... I'm just going to think positive thoughts.

well i finally have an appointment on January 10th. I'm very scared but also very happy and can't wait. the last few weeks have flown by. i can't believe 8 weeks is almost here. i think seeing the baby will finally make this seem real. I have to remind myself if it was not real i wouldn't be feeling so sick and i would have my little friend by now.

today 1/9/08 was my 1st Dr appointment it was much better that i thought it would be. I dragged my sis with and she kept me company. we got to see the little peanut and got 2 pics. this now feels real! I am still kind of in shock and can't believe this but so happy.

i can tell under my flab i have a hard bump. i wish i was skinny just to see my bump. im not gaining weight yet but my pants are not fitting. so i'm wearing some maternity clothes already but they are big. it's annoying.

i had my 12 week appointment to day 2/7/08. it was fast it was only about 15 min. i heard the heart beat for the 1st time it was very cool. it's still in there doing good. I lost 3 lbs witch is ok since I have a few pounds on me( as my dr said) . my mom came with. it was nice to include her in the process. john is jealous but can't take off work. only 2 more months until we can find out the sex! can't wait. i don't care what it is.

i just realized i haven't written in a while. every thing has been going good so far. next week (week 20) we get our ultrasound to find out the sex. we can't wait. john wants a boy of course but he feels guilty he wants one.(he has all girls in his family) i told him most guys i've talked to want their 1st to be a boy. i don't care i just want it to be healthy. i have felt some movement but it's still hard to tell. i'm starting a new job so i need to keep reminding my self to take it easy. i need to sit down often because my back and feet kill me after a few hrs.

we had are ultrasound on 4/3 and we are having a boy! john was so excited he yelled super loud and all nurses were laughing when we walked out. it is so nice to know so we can really start to plan. the doc said he looked good and i might be a week ahead of what we thought! we are going to name him logan james.
