So today was my 32nd day of my cycle and still no AF! I average around 30 days (28-32) so after today, I will officially be "late"!! The not so great news is that I took a hpt yesterday and got a BFN! UGH! Hopefully it was just too early! I would love to be able to tell everyone over the holidays!
11/28
I am officially late! I have not seen AF yet and I hope that I won't. It is nerve racking, I am just waiting for her to be there when I use the bathroom! I am really tired though, and I know that is a good sign, but I am not getting anything done. I took another hpt and again, BFN....I think that I am just going to wait a little while before taking another one. It is just so hard to wait! Days seem to be crawling by!

Took another test today (I couldn't wait) and saw a very faint line. I don't know if I should get my hopes up or not. I am late with no AF, but don't want to get all excited if it is for nothing! But I am hopeing and praying!!!
I called my doctor today and they are sending me to get a blood test! I get to go to outpatient instead of having to make an appointment, and get my results tomorrow. This is going to be the longest night ever!! My husband is coming back from a business trip tomorrow and I am hoping to surprise him with the news! I am so excited! I have been counting down the hours just to take the test!

So I got my test results back today...It took forver. I called at 1:00 and it was only a machine and I kept calling. I called for 2 hours and nothing, so I ended up being transfered to the receptionist who transfered me again. After being transfered and calling back only to go through 2 other people, I got my results and it was a positive!!!!! I was kinda shocked, I didn't really think it would happen! I almost started crying, but I was driving. I am so excited! I am waiting for my hubby to get home and am going ot surprise him! I got a little "I love Daddy" bib and some booties that are laying there for him. I can't wait!!

We got to tell out parents over the weekend and they were SOO excited! My mom screamed and jumped up and down and cryed and hugged me. It was my families early christmas too so we could tell everyone the great news! We already went to Babies R Us! It hasn't really sunk in yet though. The only thing is that I have to wait until the 27th of this month before I even find out how far along I am. I want to know asap, but have to wait past Christmas. Everyone has already been asking. Thank you for all of the support!!

We had an appointment on the 27th last month and got to see our baby for the first time!! It was just a little peanut! We also got out EDD, Aug. 12th. It was a little rushed though, and our picture from the ultrasound and our doctor said that our baby was 8 cm long, that is like 3.1 inches! It seems really long when we were only 7.5 weeks along. We don't know if the machine was wrong or what. About 2-3 days after the appointment I began getting morning sickness, today being the worst. It really happens after I take my prenatal. I really hope that this doens't last for very long!

Sickness has now taken over! And, it sucks! Not only are my prenatals causing me morning sickness, but I think that I have also caught a cold or some kind of virus. I was sick all day yesterday. I thought that it would let up like it usually does, but it was not the case. I am feeling a little better this morning (I took the day off of work because of how I felt yesterday), but I am so afraid to take my prenatals and just get sick again, but I know I need them. UGH!

I am still going through morning sickness! It has been really bad this past week! I feel like I just feel like crap all of the time! I mean, I know that it is totally worth it, but I just can't wait until I feel normal again! I have heard that once you hit the second trimester that it gets much better and I only have a few days until that, which is super exciting! I will update when the 2nd trimester starts!!
2/13
SO the second trimester began and I actually do feel much better! I began feeling better on Saturday and it has lasted. My first day back to work feeling better and it was almost like I wasn't pregnant anymore. I think it was because I was connecting being pregnant to feeling like crap!! My belly is starting to show a little more, which is amazing to see, and we are begining to work on the nursary! I am so excited to get everything in place! We have a little over a month now till we find out the sex of the baby!! YAY!

I think that I felt my baby move today!! I was standing in the shower and it was just like butterflies in my stomach. I wasn't sure if it was the baby, so I stood there and it happened like 3-4 times! So exciting! I got to talk to my husband at work and he was excited! But he wanted to be able to feel it when he got home. So sweet, even though I am the only one who can feel it right now!

Went to the radiologist today and got our ultrasound and found out the sex....
IT'S A BOY!!!
Our technition was awsome and it was amazing to see our litle boy kicking, moving around and sucking his thumb. My husband couldn't believe I couldn't feel him doing all that moving around! Everything was in the right place and she checked all the major things...what a relief! I can't believe I am having a little boy!

I felt something last night! I was so excited! We were laying in bed and had just turned the lights off and I was talking to him (the baby), trying to tell him to move, and he did this little kick! I was shocked! Not like a butterfly feeling, but a true kick! It was awesome! My husband kept feeling around, wanting to feel it too, but it only happened once. He slept with his hand around me and on my belly so just in case Preston kicked, he would feel it. He had to leave for a few days for work and was all worried that I would start to feel him moving around a lot more and he wouldn't be here to feel it!

So he is kicking like crazy all the time. I love watching my belly jumping around. I can't believe that I am going to be in my 3rd trimester in a couple weeks! I am still going through morning sickness though. I have been trying Preggie Pops lately and they usually work..not today! Ugh, I was even on Reglin, but it made me so tired, I couldn't work. SO I am just trying to push through!
