About three weeks ago I just had a feeling that I might be pregnant, we all know our bodies quite well and I just knew that what I was feeling was another pregnancy. I told Jaime that I was going to take a pregnancy test on Monday morning (that day after his birthday) before he went to work and he kinda just shrugged it off like it was not what I was thinking- maybe just a false alarm. Sure enough, I was right and my test came back positive!
So the past few weeks have been sort of different ones. At first, when we found out I was shocked, surprised, scared, unsure. This hadn't fallen according to our plan and I wasn't sure how it was all going to work out. Those feelings lasted a couple days and then we decided that this is God's plan and we are going to embrace it. We might've thought it was too soon but maybe this was the way things were supposed to happen according to His master plan.
I have felt pretty tired and nauseous off and on. If I'm comparing this one to my pregnancy with Quinn, I will have to say I am much more nauseous with this one. Even looking at the computer screen makes me nauseous. But maybe I'm just noticing these feelings more now with this pregnancy now that I'm home and not running around like a chicken without a head teaching 20 first graders? Who knows.
I had my first doctor's appointment today, which was just more of a consultation to warn me of all of the things I should and should not be eating, doing, drinking, etc... In two weeks I'll go back for an ultrasound and we'll be able to get a more clear picture on the due date. Right now the baby is estimated to be due September 28. But I swear I started feeling baby flutters yesterday, which doesn't happen until further along in the pregnancy. My doctor said this could be anything from gas to mind tricks or I could in fact be further along than we think. Oh boy, lets hope that is not the case!
At any rate, Quinn is going to be a big sis and we are very excited to see what the next chapter of our lives will be like. My heart is so full right now- we are truly blessed.
Hope you are surviving the chilly wind today- yuck!
