Almost in the second trimester!!

It's hard to believe that I will be 13 weeks this Saturday!! I am soooo excited to be entering the second tri! I am starting to get a bump and that's super exciting!

For the past few weeks we have been focusing on closing on our house and getting packed and ready. I can't wait till we are all done with everything. Buying a house can sure be stressful! Thanks to Jesse's wonderful, amazing parents we will have movers moving our stuff. I can't thank them enough for all they have done for us during this time aside from getting us movers. They are life savers and we are so fortunant and blessed to have their help. We couldn't do it without them! LOVE YOU GUYS!!

I will be traveling to Alabama to visit with family and see sis and my sweetie Daisy the week of Labor Day. I am so excited to see Mom, Dad, my brother and some of my Aunts and Uncles! This will be a much needed trip I tell you!

I go for my next appointment next Thursday and can't wait to heat little ones heartbeat again! It's really the best most sweetest sound ever. I will be sure to update the blog of course!

Heard the heartbeat again!

My good friend Lindsey who is studying to be a midwife came over yesterday. She brought her doppler and we got to hear the little ones heartbeat again. It was so neat! Lindsey kept hearing the baby kick away every time she picked up the heartbeat! Looks like we already have a wiggle worm on our hands:) I am still feeling fabulous so I think it's safe to say the morning sickness has finally subsided. THANK GOODNESS! Whew!

2 weeks till the second tri!


I am 11 weeks today so that means only 2 more weeks until I reach the ever so lovely second trimester! I can't wait! The morning sickness has finally subsided and I am feeling like my old self again. We are going to the Titans game today so I am excited about that. It should be a super fun time. My really good friend who is studying to be a midwife is coming over tomorrow with her Doppler so we can hear the baby's heartbeat again! We are going to record it this time. I will keep everyone posted! Thanks for checking in.

What a fabulous day!!

We got to hear the baby’s heartbeat this morning! It was the sweetest sound we have ever heard! Even though it only lasted for a few seconds it was still so surreal and awesome! The BPM was 162 (Dr. Morgan said that was a little girl heartbeat so we shall see!) I got an excellent report from Dr. Morgan. Since she was able to hear the heartbeat she said I don't need to take the prometrium anymore…yay!!! She said we are over the major hump and should be in the clear now. That was so good to hear! We grow more and more in love with our precious little one everyday! Thanks for checking in! Next appointment will be September 3rd at 9:30 CST.

Time to update!

It's been a few weeks since I have updated the blog so I am going to do some updating now! A really good friend of mine suggested using our blog as a pregnancy journal so I am heeding her advice! I am 10 weeks now and for the past few weeks or so I have been dealing with the ever so lovely morning sickness, which should be called all day sickness..ugh! I contribute a lot of this towards the prometrium Dr. Morgan has me on for my low progesterone. Thankfully I only have 3 or so more weeks left of taking it. Once I reach the second tri the placenta will take over and I won't have to keep taking them. I would take it the entire 9 months if I had to though!

I am so excited about my next appointment! It's next Tuesday at 9 am! Dr. Morgan said that she will be able to pick up our baby's heartbeat!! This will be so exciting foe Jesse and I. We were able to see the baby's heartbeat flickering during my 6 week ultrasound but we were not able to hear it just yet.

Also, we have been super busy with packing and getting our apartment cleaned up for our move. We are on schedule to close on our first home August 28th! We are so excited and can't wait to move in! I am already thinking about how we will do the baby's nursery. We will have to wait to purchase a lot of things until we have our gender scan, but we have already spotted the crib and changing table that we love. Can't wait to get it!

Thanks everyone for keeping up with us and feel free to post comments! I love comments:)
