~ The Excitement Is Killing Me~

I can not wait to find out the sex of this baby. I have finally hit the 12 week stage & I am super excited. I am so tempted to look at work, but I haven't yet because we want to find out together. I really just want a healthy baby, either way I will be happy. I have felt like it was going to be a boy since day one, but who knows. The heartbeat was 154 last week, so it could go either way- I'll post as soon as I know. Hopefully, by the beginning of next week, I'll know. I can't wait to go shopping :)!

~Brandi's Wedding~

We just went to the Orange Beach a couple of weekends ago for Brandi & Calem's wedding. The weather was beautiful. It was so nice to see the beach one last time this summer. Her wedding was so pretty. I love Beach Weddings. Everyone was barefooted & the bridemaids dresses were so pretty. They where pink strapless dresses from J-Crew. We wore flip-flops at the reception. I have got to update my pics on here. I will post some this week from the wedding.

~ 1st Visit With Dr. Hancock~

I started a new job recently at Shelby OB/GYN on my off days at Clanton. I really like the facility & all of the Dr.'s. I think I am going to make that my new OB. The staff & nurses are just so friendly & all of the equipment is up-to-date. Plus, Its close to home & I work there! I had a little scare last Monday night, I started having some bleeding. So I went in Tues morning to see Dr. Hancock. She was wonderful! She made me feel so much better, I was scared to death. I have a small bleed around my placenta, called a subchrionic bleed. For now, all of the bleeding has stopped, I just have to follow-up with her more often & avoid any strenuous activities. But, I think it is a common problem, & most pregnancies go on to have a normal healthy delivery. Say a little prayer for my peanut :) I will post some more Ultrasound Pics shortly.

~ I Feel So Lucky ~

I feel so lucky. I have only been nauseated twice, & have never gotten sick. I dont even really feel pregnant yet. Although I have gained 2 lbs already, I think its all boobs at this point, which is really quite wonderful. The change in boob size was a nice bonus. The fatigue has gone away a little too- I actually feel great at this point. I am sure things will be different when I get further along. I can't hardly wait to find out the sex of my little peanut. Hopefully in another month I should be able to tell. I have been looking online at baby clothes & nurseries, It feels like a month will never get here. I am so excited about the next few months!

~Dr.'s Office Visit 9-24-08~

I met Dr. Mckenzie for the first time today. I wasn't extremely impressed if I am going to be honest. I waited 3 hrs for an Ultrasound & to be weighed. I could have done that myself at work! I did't even get bloodwork. He is a nice guy, but I just don't think he is right for me. I didn't think it would matter that much who I saw, but I just want to be completely comfortable because, I am a worrier already & just want everyhting to go smoothly. But the good news is he said everything was on track & looking good. So that gave me some peace for the time being, now I am just on the search for a new Doc.
