Day 42 – 10.24.19
Thursday – 8 Weeks! 🙌
Today, we are 8 weeks pregnant 💖 – I woke up so happy knowing this. Blissful, really! The other two times we got close to this point in pregnancy I had started spotting, we never had an ultrasound, and the pregnancy test lines were fading… I tear up remember that heartbreak; My miscarriages, although they were most likely chemical pregnancies, they still gave the possibility of real baby in our lives. 😢
.
.
.
And I’m probably more teary now, this time, because I felt the implantation, I’ve felt the daily growing twinges, actually gotten to SEE our little tot on a screen and HEAR their heartbeat. So now, more than ever before, I’m so attached and in love with a little being I’ve yet to meet. 🤗
.

My wife and I have been calling seedling-tot our “little dinosaur” this week because of the precious visual (on the right) that @pregnancyplus_app displays. 😍 Cool to know the umbilical cord is growing, eyes are growing, feet and hands are sprouting, bones are getting thicker! But still so teeny tiny! .

And on the left, The Ovia Pregnancy App gives fun details. I’m already overweight, so seeing my belly grow is NOT really a thing, sadly. However, I have noticed that sucking in my tummy is not as easy – takes more effort. In addition, my appetite has increased a bit. I definitely have to keep that in check! I lost 35lbs to be a healthy vessel for this kid – I don’t want to undo that, especially when my calorie intake does NOT need to increase until third trimester. Even then, only by 200 calories. The “eating for two” is a myth and I need to focus on the balance. I’ve yet to start going for daily walks! Need to stop slackin’! .

Happy and grounded,
Trusting in my body now,
Relish in the growth.

My husband trying to maneuver his dance moves around my big puffy dress. ☺️🤪🤣😚
.
We’ve been married for four years today. It’s been four years of maneuvering throughout the ups and downs of life. New jobs, infertility, new house, renovations, multiple miscarriages, our baby boy, just to mention a few.
.
I never would have imagined marrying someone so different than me. Sometimes we’re at each other’s throats, yet we also bring out the best in each other. And, no one handles early pregnancy better than this one right here. I’m an awful, irritable, tired and anxious being in early pregnancy. My husband’s been through six rounds of it. And, when we eventually miscarry, all his focus is on me and my healing.
.
I don’t know how we got so lucky. In the midst of the craziness that is life, I often pause and think about just how very lucky we are to have found each other.
.
Happy anniversary hubby!

After a technical mishap in getting my bloodwork back, I finally have the results!!! 🎉 I will be showing these numbers to my midwife tomorrow (booked a consultation) but in my non-professional opinion, it looks like I am about 5 weeks pregnant! 🤰 (Blood was taken at 5 weeks + 2 days if that is accurate)❤ So to all 46 of you who answered my poll (and my husband!) and thought August was baby-making month sorry, but it looks like you’re wrong! 🙅‍♀️The other 30 of you can pat yourselves on the back for being totally right!👏🏻 Technically, HCG is not supposed to be used to measure how far along a pregnancy is but as of this moment, that’s what I’ve got to go on! 💁‍♀️And until I have more info, we’re sticking to that prediction!!❤❤ This means I get to announce (officially) for Christmas, 🎄and I’ve already got a plan for telling my parents. Time to get working on their present!! 🤫🎁
