September 9, 2008

Yes, finally, we are expecting! Baby's due date is April 25th. As most of you know I've struggled to get pregnant. Thank you for all your support. Even with the miracles of acupuncture and modern pharmaceuticals, I don't think this would have happened without your prayers and support.

We had our first ultrasound yesterday. (For those novices in the group, the black oval is the egg sack, the peanut shaped grey mass inside the egg sack is the baby.) Seeing and hearing the heartbeat was amazing. All looks well. Baby is growing and healthy.

Don is relieved there is just one baby. After getting my hcg results two weeks ago, there was great concern we may have more than one in there. But alas, I'm just an overachiever.

I'm feeling tired, nauseous, with bouts of dizziness and insomnia - fun! Everyone keeps telling me this is good. Ok, but I'm looking forward to hitting my 2nd trimester.

I felt crappy for about 14 weeks, tired for the first 18, but have really, really enjoyed the 2nd trimester. You have so much to look forward to!!! Much love to all 3 of you!
