Saturday, April 10th was quite an exciting day. As most of you know Chris and I have been trying for about a year now to expand our family. It's been a lot of negative pregnancy tests and questionable doctor's visits. Finally, when we stopped counting the days and relaxed whaaalaa! Prego! At this point I am 5 weeks along and according to a handy dandy website Chris found with a prego calculator I'll be due 12-11-10. Doctor's visit is planed for the first week of May when I'll be 8 weeks. More details I'm sure will follow after that appointment. We will have our first ultrasound at that point which will be very exciting for the three of us.
So one question I've received a lot is how are you feeling? Last Sunday through Wednesday I felt pretty crumby, loss of appetite and upset stomach. Thursday, Friday, and today I've felt great besides my major fatigue. My energy level is way below my norm and when 4:00pm rolls around the yawns begin. I'm feeling pretty good though. Sometimes I question if I'm feeling too good to be pregnant. I think until I have the ultrasound I won't be satisfied with 4 positive pregnancy tests.
Please pray for Chris, my lima bean size baby, and me throughout this pregnancy. I know how likely miscarriages are and I am trying to do everything in my power to not suffer that tragedy; however, I will not have any shame if that's what God's choice is for our unborn child. I feel very blessed at this point in my life. I am excited for what the future holds. Thanks for all of the kinds words of hope and positive encouragement.
