8 weeks

This week was very interesting. On Thursday I started the day like any normal Thursday. Gym... played a little basketball, then off to work. At work my stomach started to tighten and cramp which really started to scare me so I had Adam pick me up and take me to the hospital. After they took pee, blood, did a pelvic exam and an ultrasound they final found out what was going on. I personally thought I had lost the baby, but good/bad news was coming my way. The baby was fine, had a heart beat around 150. But, they did find a cyst on my left ovary which they think might be causing the pain. So in the end everything is okay, and they will monitor the cyst and make sure its not growing.

My stomach is growing fast, much faster than the first. I don't think I started showing untill about 16 or so weeks. I have hit 8 wks and the buldge is there.

First Appointment

So today I had my first OB appointment. It wasn't what I expected, it was with 2 other girls and the nurse just explained what we should be feeling the changes that are going to be happening and what not. I elected not to have the screening test for birth defects or cystic fibrosis. After what happened with Kailey I just can't put myself through it. I did talk to the nurse about being referred off base and there is a good chance that I will since I want to have a vaginal birth instead of a repeat C-Section. They can only provide me with a C-Section on base. So its looking good. I at least want to talk to a doctor and see what my options are... I wasn't able to push Kailey out and there is a chance that it could happen again. But, I want to be positive. So my next appointment will be around 10 - 12 weeks and I will get to hear the babies heart beat and have my first ultrasound. I'm very excited!

Mood= okay

nausea= heck yeah!!
Energy level= tired

Baby number 2

Adam and I are expecting our second child this June. We are both extremely happy. Kailey has been telling me for about a month now that I had a baby in my tummy and now I believe her. I guess kids just know! :)

I haven't gotten sick yet, but I have felt very nausea, especially when I don't eat every few hours. I wouldn't say that I'm showing yet, just looks like a bunch of fat! ha ha!
