Feeling better

I am starting to come out of this cold funk. So thankful for that!! I am trying to schedule my initial exam but they keep telling me to call back on another date. Little bit frustrated with that but I am trying to be a little flexible. It should be the second week of March.

blah!

So nausea set in yesterday.....not sure if it is here to stay like my pregnancy with Kendall but it is just as miserable. I am starting out 10 pounds lighter with this pregnancy so losing a lot of weight like I did with Kendall is not optimal. Please pray that I snap out of this. The end product is so worth it but while you are going through the miserable phase there really isn't anything that makes you feel better.

Yesterday I made the appointment for my OB class and first ultrasound. It will be on February 11th at 0830. I will be excited to see this little peanut for the first time.
I had a good laugh today as 2 of my friends at Kendall's kindermusik class asked me if I was losing weight......ha,ha! The way that my appetite is going it is going to be just the opposite :-) I think that I am going to keep those pants and sweater on hand when I am feeling fat though!

Starting weight

114 pounds and I am starving most of the time so I expect that will go up in the upcoming months!!

Surprises

Ben came home excited today. I guess he likes surprise congratulations. He hasn't really told anyone at his squadron about the baby because he thinks that it is fun to get congrats when you least expect it. He got quite a few of those today so I know that he liked it :-)
He also was poking my belly last night when we were laying down saying"hey baby" Too cute! I think that it is so much better to have the boy's reaction than the girls!

The official word

I took my urine test at my family care clinic today. I of course had another positive. I will be scheduling a class through naval then I will begin the process of my visits there. (Funny how it changes in the little time since I had Kendall!)
I am following in my sister-in-law's footsteps again. Sarah is pregnant with their third right now. Our niece, Gabby, and Kendall were only 3 months apart & that is what the situation is looking like again for us. It is always fun to be pregnant with someone esp. when it is family!
I am feeling great. Just a little bit more tired than usual and I have been craving bananas. I don't know what it is with these kiddos making me want food that normally I wouldn't eat! At least it is not hot dogs this time like with Kendall!

Pregnancy test

I couldn't wait any longer so early this morning I took a pregnancy test while Ben was still sleeping. Low and Behold it was positive. I guess our newest journey will be that of parenthood again. We are both very excited. I am approximately 6 weeks along and with my calculations should be due about September 18th. I will of course verify the test tomorrow at my PCM so that they can send me to OB.

We have been telling Kendall all day that there is a baby sister or brother in mommy's belly but obviously the concept is a little vague for her right now! Stay tuned for our progress as we go along.
