Old Wives Tales Well I jsut got back from the doctor. Everything seems good. I got a flu shot while I was there. I hate shots, but better safe then sorry. I've been alittle scared lately. Just stupid worrying, like there will be something wrong with the baby's heatbeat. But all my visits so far, the doctor says everything is good. I know its natural to be a little worried, but sometimes my worrying is a little out of control. But anyway, she was having a little trouble finding the heatbeat, so obviously with all the worrying i've been doing I was getting pretty scared. But then she found it, thank God! I asked her what the heartbeat was, she didn't give me a number, but she told me it was lower. Not anything bad low, it was normal, it was just lower... anyways.... then she told me I was carrying low. So if I go by those old wives tales, I'm on the road to having a boy! Which is want we were hoping for. Well honestly I don't care what I'm having since it's my first baby. There are advantages to having either a girl or a boy. But I know Noel wants a boy since he already has a girl, so I was hoping for a boy for his sake. But like I said before.... it doesn't really matter what I have just as long as it's a healthy baby!!!

All Moved In Ok... Me and Noel are offically moved in to our apartment. We have pretty much everything we need. For us, we have NOTHING for the baby yet! I'm waiting for my baby shower and then i'll get whatever I still need. Once the baby gets here it's going to be pretty crowded, but we'll make it work. We got the cable and the internet hooked up a couple days ago. We would be lost without the internet. Noel said something to me today that kind of upset me and I can't get it out of my mind. He is really hoping for a boy since he already has a girl with another woman. Which is fine but if we have a girl he's going to be really upset. I don't care what I have. I was hoping for a boy from day one, mostly for his sake. But other then that, things have been going really good between me and him. We get along good, he treats me good, he even calls me babe or baby alot. That makes me feel so good. My stomach is getting bigger. It feels like it's getting bigger each day! Well I am 4 and 1/2 months today...

Tough Times Well so far in my second trimester everything was been going smoothly. Except for some unexpected sickness. I was driving one day and I felt sick just out of the blue and since I was on the highway I was a little scared to pull over. I was looking for a safe place to pull over but I guess that was too long because I threw up in the car and on myself! I can't believe it! It was terrible! And to make things worse I had to drive 20 minutes to get home so I can clean up myself and my car! The joys of pregnancy... I go for my next OBGYN visit Nov.12th so I hope everything goes ok.

A Quick Catch-Up To What Has Been Going On With My Pregnancy I just started this journal today so I have alot to write to catch up to date. I found out I was pregnant August 8th, the day I was due for my period. I ususally wake up with my period on the day it's due. Well it was going on late afternoon and still didn't get my period so I asked my mom to pick me up a pregnancy test. I took it and it turned positive right away. My mom was the first person I told and then I told my boyfriend, Noel. No one really knew what to think or how to act, and well neither did I. The first 3 months were hard for me. All I did and wanted to do was sleep. I woke up sick every morning and I could only eat very little. I actually lost weight during my first 3 months. As the days went by Noel didn't want the baby more and more. It caused our relationship to fall apart. He didn't want to be around me, talk to me, hug and kiss me, or anything. We eventually broke up. I thought my life was over since I was pregnant with no father for my baby and I was thinking, "how am I going to do all this myself?" Well about 2 weeks ater we broke up, we started talking again. Started to work things out and he wanted to start completely over. Which meant no baby. I couldn't go through an abortion and I knew he would leave me for good but I was ready for it. Well the very next day he called me and told me that we wanted to be with me. Which was a dream come true for me. We got an apartment like are original plans were, and we're moving in November 1st. I've been going to the doctor regually and my doctor said everything looks good. My first ultrasound looks good, the heartbeat sounds good, and my blood work all came back good. I'm starting to gain weight now. I gained almost 10 lbs. now and my belly is starting to get a little bigger. It's so cute. I can't wait for November 27th to find out what i'm having because im sick of saying "It".
