Finally Some Energy!

So today is the first day I have felt human in about 2 months or maybe 2 1/2 months!

I could actually clean a little bit today, not really nauseas, didn't have to eat every 30 mins to an hour.

It feels good to feel normal again!

Tomorrow is our first doctors appointment. I guess they will have to do my most favorite thing in the world...Pap Smear...
Ughh...It has to be the worst thing in the world to me.

I'm so excited about the ultra sound though! I can't wait to hear a heart beat!

I don't know if I will be one of those women who get all emotional when that happens. I probably will though.
I'm mostly looking forward to my husbands reaction. Will he get emotional? So far he is being a lot better about all of this than I thought he would be. He's more caring and observant and great and I love him so much.
My moms coming with us too since she will probably be going to Germany really soon and won't be able to be here for most of the good parts of the pregnancy.

Actually I really cried hard the other day because I just realized that she's going to be leaving and I don't get to see her much anymore since I've been married and it just kind of sucks.

I'm scared of gaining weight too. Like last night Nick brought home candy bars, ice cream, and oreos! I was like what are you doing to me! lol

Well I'm hoping all of that weight goes to my boobs :)

Maybe I'll try to get some pics on here soon!

Vow Renewal

My husband and I are having a vow renewal ceremony in July. There is still so much left to do! Pick out our playlist, figure out if we saying some vows or not, decorate and what not.

I guess it doesnt look like a lot but it kind of is. It's just stressful and I don't need any stress if I'm preggers.

We plan on telling his parents and my mom around that time. I'd like to tell them when they take us out to dinner for our wedding anniversary! What a great anniversary surprise! lol

I feel like a lazy bum since I've gotten pregnant. It's so hard to clean the house or do just about anything.
I can barely go anywhere because I get too tired.

I'm trying my best. I want the house to be clean but geez it's sooo exhausting and I'm not ready to be tired yet!

Tomorrow is our OB class! I'm super excited about that! I can't wait to meet some other women who might be due the same time as me! :)

So Tired!

This tiredness is killing me!
I wake up at like 7 am and then by 2 pm I am POOPED!

I did a little better today though. I went shopping with my mom but I couldn't really do it for very long because I had no energy.

I did get the strength to do a little laundry and to put some dishes in the dishwasher, but I don't want to over do it lol

Hubby is starting to make a names list...of all BOYS. He thinks its going to be a boy and I probably wouldn't be surprised if it is.. Just a little sad maybe because I reallly realllly really want a girl to dress up in bows and pink and cute things.
I don't even know what to do with a boy! I know that Nick will be really happy though if we have a boy so I hope that we do. **kind of**

The SIMS 3 says that we are going to have boys anyway. Every time I get preggo on that game I always have boys!

I'm getting more excited but I'm still scared.
I could list a million what ifs here that I dont even have the answer to.

I'm just going to try the best that I can to love and care for be there for this child that's growing in me.

I still can't believe it lol. I don't think I'll believe it until I actually hear a heartbeat or feel the baby kick.
It is so unreal. I'm sure a lot of women feel like this during their first pregnancies though

First Doctors Appointment

So today I went to our health clinic on base because they told me I had to take a test just to confirm that I was in fact pregnant.

It was no surprise that I was!

What they didn't tell me was that I had to get BLOOD WORK!

But it wasn't just one little tube..it was 8!

Well everything was going good, and thankfully my husband was with me, because guess what happened next?

I PASSED OUT!

It wasn't my best moment and everyone said my husband was freaking out. He even told me he was scared :) and hes never scared.

Ugh..So yeah here I am sitting at this computer now and telling you about it. I feel a lot better now. I was pretty nauseaus for a while. I don't know if I spelled nauseaus right but I'm pretty sure I'll be an expert at it by the time I have this baby!


Anyway other than that its all good. They gave me prenatal vitamins and told me to drink a GALLON of water a day!? what?!

On Thursday we have a OB Class for first time mothers and parents and what not. That should be pretty interesting.

I'm just really shocked :)

Yesterday, I found out I was pregnant...

I wasn't really all that surprised, just shocked. You know the women who think it can never happen to them, I'm one of those.

I am married though, I have been for about a year. We have been together for almost 3 years though.

Anyway, when I missed my period I knew something was up. I'm also one of those women who are always on time.

Five days later when I still didn't start, I decided to suck it up and take a pregnancy test.

You should've seen how big my eyes were when I saw two lines and not one!

So while my whole body is shaking, I go upstairs and I don't say anything to my husband who already knows the answer.

Guess what?  He was pretty great about it and he didn't freak out or anything like I was expecting him to.

He just held me and told me it would be okay while I cried!

But its all good, Im not sad about it or anything. I'm just really shocked.

I guess we just weren't planning on having children yet any time soon.

"I guess thats what happens when you tempt fate" my husband said
