Happiness is...Pregnancy

Yes, that means I am going to have a baby. I could not hold it in anymore.  I am due September 10. It is kind of a cool date because it is 9.10.11.  I thought that was pretty awesome.  We wanted to wait until our ultrasound in a week and a half, but I couldn't do it anymore.  I am 8.5 weeks now and I get to have a 10...well 10.5 week ultrasound on February 17th.  We are so excited.  I have been pretty sick.  Which was a change from the last pregnancy.  I have been nauseous everyday all day and I have thrown up a few times.  Ben got me some Zofran which helps me a lot with the nausea. I actually want to eat things now. I cannot believe that I went through my first pregnancy without  it.  I have been doing really well with the pregnancy emotions.  I just cry on command and I am completely and thoroughly exhausted.  I have been tired forever.  I cannot seem to get enough sleep.  I have been craving sweets...but I guess nothing has changed there.  I just cannot wait to have another baby.  It scares me a little bit,but what scares me more is the pregnancy.  I worry everyday that I am going to lose this baby.  I know that it is a totally different pregnancy, but how can I not worry.  Once I get past 10 weeks I will feel a LOT better, but until then...I will be stressed immensely.  It is very difficult not to think about. I pray for comfort and for this baby everyday.  Things will work out the way that they are supposed to.  We are just grateful for the opportunity to have a family and be together forever.  I cannot stop looking at girl clothes, and even little boy clothes.  Ben hopes that we have a boy so we don't have to spend money on clothes. He is so funny.

Grow baby Grow!!!
