Week 12

This week has been quite frustrating. I have been waiting the whole week to find out if I have received authorization from the insurance company to have my 1st trimester screening. I normally would not have been so frustrated but the test has to be done between 12 and 13 weeks, I can't schedule an appointment till I have authorization and the office last told me that they are about a week out as far as scheduling. I'm all most over with my 12Th week! I have also been very tired and I find myself fighting will all my will power to get my work done. This is not like me. I think the hardest thing to learn about being pregnant is that you are no longer in control of your body.

Week 11

Dave and I have told the world that I am Pregnant! I have been aching to tell everyone for some time. It was so fun to shared with the rainbow girls. I told them during sunshine and rain. None of them knew it was coming; then when I let the cat out of the bag they all yelled yeah and then baby shower. It was really an awesome moment. All our friends have been very happy for us. I however am still very tired and am a sleep around 8:00PM. Later in the week I went with my friend Kelly to the Legends Grand Opening. We shopped at all the baby stores and talked about our excitement to be mothers. We had dinner at Olive Garden and Dave joined us. While Kelly and I were waiting for the table we go on the subject of first trimester screening. I had not heard about this from my new doctor and was getting a little nervous because Kelly said it had to be done by the 13th week. I had made a note to call my doctor in the morning. On the way home Dave's trucked died and it is going to cost us around $1700.00 to fix it. This was not the best surprise in the world but a part of life.

Week 10 Heartbeat 6/8/09

WOW, thats all I can say. Today we heard our baby's heartbeat. It sounded just like a little chu-chu train. It was so fast. I couldn't believe it. Tears again filled my eyes. It seems like I cry alot lately. Dave thoughts when hearing the heart beat were it was really fast and that I didn't think the damn doctor didn't let him here the heart beat long enough. He apparently was notdone listening to our baby's heartbeat. This was our first appointment with doctor Klose. Dave seems happy with him as do I however he is not doctor Bethal. He really has some big shoes to fill. After Dr. Klose asked a whole bunch of questions about my health, Family's heath and the same with Dave we were out the door again with orders for more lab work and a doctors appointment set for the 7th of July and the 21st of July.
