The Best News!

A little over a week ago, I found out the best news of my life! My fiancé, Greg, and I had been, more or less, trying to have a baby for approximately 3 months. On Wednesday, December 17, I was 3 days late and decided that it was time to take a pregnancy test. I bought a test on my lunch break and took it when I got back to work. It turned out to be positive!

I couldn't wait to get home to tell him! When I got home that evening, this is how I finally decided to tell him...

I drove home, checked the mail, and this is what happened next.

So, needless to say, we're both very excited about it. We already have names picked out for both a boy and a girl, but judging from my LMP, I'm only about 5 weeks along. I made my first appointment, but it isn't until January 23, so we'll see how far along I am when that finally gets here. 

How far along: 5 weeks

Gender: No idea yet, but poppa bear thinks its going to be a girl...

Weight gain: none yet

Maternity clothes: Not yet, but kind of excited to start showing

Stretch marks: None yet, but already slathering on the lotion!

Belly button in or out: In

Sleep: Good! There were a few days of waking up at about 1:00 a.m. last week, but that passed :)

Best moment this week: Telling some of the family at our Christmas celebrations!

Worst moment this week: First bout of nausea and now i'm starting to get a cold :(

Miss anything: Drinking...

Movement: none yet

Cravings: nothing in particular, just hungry all the time, haha

Queasy or sick: Feeling good, for the most part!

Looking forward to: Our first appointment!
