This morning we had our second ultrasound where we happily learned that the heart rate was up to 153 beats per minute. However, we measured a day behind from what we were measuring two weeks ago, at 7 weeks 4 days. Gene and I both think the lady doing the ultrasound didn’t click her little mouse correctly and maybe made us lose a day or so in our weeks. I know a day is a day, but c’mon, don’t steal our day! I am excited to meet our OBGYN on October 8th for the first time. I have questions to be answered and I’m looking forward to just meeting her. The first thing I’m going to ask is if we can find a new place to get ultrasounds at.
See, the place I currently have my ultrasounds at is called the Renaissance. Now, it is a pretty new facility. I wanna say it has been there for the last 10 years or so. But after having two ultrasounds done there, I am in great belief that they are actually using equipment from THE RENAISSANCE TIMES.
Gene is still taking awesome care of me. I’m still sleeping a ridiculous amount. I’m still trying not to let my head explode from the ridiculousness of the political debates. I’m trying to remain calm and not worry too much about this pregnancy. I’m still trying to eat healthy. I’m still having some problems with Rhinitis but not nearly as bad. Same o, same o.
Yesterday was Gene and I’s 123rd Monthiversary :) Being the great husband that he is, he got me an ADORABLE card. I haven’t yet experienced the crazy emotions that I see so many talk about in relation to pregnancy. I have had some moments of SUPER annoyance with things but have yet to get really emotional over sensitive subjects. But I’m not ruling it out all together.. I know there is PLENTY of time for me to lose my shit in the upcoming months!
I know I get ridiculous when I talk about how much I love my husband.. but I just want to say one more time that I really freakin’ love that guy. He cleaned the kitchen, does dishes, does laundry, buys me a card, kisses me, hugs me, supports me. He is really just the greatest person ever. I am so thankful for having such a WONDERFUL person in my life. I just can’t get over that. I feel ridiculously lucky. And the thing is, I am still in AWE over the fact that I am carrying his child. Just knowing that we have created another life together completely astounds me. I don’t really have words for it. But the joy and happiness it brings me is beyond words. I look forward to being a Mommy to a little boy or a little girl and I look forward to seeing Gene be a wonderful Daddy as well. I think as a team, we are going to be great parents and I can’t imagine going through this amazing experience with anyone else but him :)
Ok I lied.. maybe I am experiencing the emotional thing now…
Aw, look at that little peanut! I love ultrasound pictures. They make me happy. :) I’m so glad your baby is healthy and happy!
And I think that it’s refreshing to read the stories about you and your hubby. You two are so sweet together, and it’s great to see a couple that are obviously so meant to be.
I can’t wait to see how gorgeous your child is going to be. You have no idea. :)
Yay, your comments are working again! I couldn’t figure out what was wrong before….
I’m sure you’ve heard this already, but I’ll say it, too…..get as much sleep as you can now, becausse once the baby is here you will get NO sleep! Ha haa haa!!
