8 weeks TODAY Today I'm officially 8wks pregnant (can you believe it) and enjoying every minute of it. I've been feeling blah a lot lately, not really up to much of anything. I seem to feel nausea a lot lately, mostly with foods. I eat when I can and hope that sooner or later I'll get back to normal. But I'm excited about having nausea, it means I'm really having a baby. I wouldn't trade this feeling for the world. One week until we see our babies heartbeat again - can't wait!

One week ago today Derrick and I found out on 1/14 that we have one healthy strong heartbeat (133 bpm) growing inside. We couldn't be happier. The pregnancy is going on course as planned. The baby measured 6w6d and I was actually 7 wks so one day off was perfect. We have our next u/s on Jan 28, we can't wait to see the flicker again. Also, our 1st official OB appointment is going to be 21 Feb, so happy to finally be here.

Day Dreaming ... So here I sit on a Friday night, Derrick is at work and Frasier is sitting beside me. I sit here thinking about Monday, our first ultrasound. I'm so excited, yet nervous. I have to just continue each day with knowing in my heart and soul that God is with us through this entire journey. Whatever happens will happen because it is supposed do, I just cant wait to see what is supposed to happen. So I wait, patiently .....

One Week Left Well, today is exactly one week from when we hopefully see the flicker of a heartbeat(s). Jan 14 is going to come before you know it, especially with work being as busy as it is. At our appointment I hope we find out exactly how far along we are and a generic due date would be great. Guess we will just wait and see. I can't wait to share in this big day with our Dr., Dr Chow is amazing. He has been with us from the start, so for us to be pregnant and having an ultrasound, our time with Dr. Chow has come full circle. Goodness, Derrick and I have so much to be Thankful for. We still can't believe this is happening to us. God is good!
So, I still feel great. Derrick and I are sleeping a lot more but I just think that is because we are lazy on the weekends, naps are the best. Sometimes I feel pulls to the lower tummy but so far no severe cramping and not one bit of spotting. We couldn't be more excited. Can't wait to watch as things transpire over the next 9 months.
