14th Week Appointment!

So today I had my 14th week Appointment and it went good! This was the first time I actually got to hear the heartbeat! The doctor found it pretty fast. I was nervous I wasn't going to be able to hear it again so when I heard that little heartbeat I was so relieved! The doctor said everything looks great. The heartbeat was 145bpm. I have even gained 3 pounds! haha. My belly is starting to pop out more but I'm thinking I probably won't really show until about 6 months. I will post a picture of my belly soon! I have been meaning to post one just haven't had the time. My next appointment is Janurary 5th and then the doc is going to schedule an ultrasound so I can find out what the sex is! I am soooo dang excited for that! I thought I was going to find out sooner but I'm just going to have to wait!

10 Week Appointment!

Today I went to the Dr. for my 10 week appointment! I was so excited to hear the little heartbeat! So the Dr. came in and got the little heartbeat ultrasound and started rubbing it on my tummy. Some time goes by and we couldn't hear anything! I was getting a little scared at this point. So the Dr. tried something else and then did the ultrasound again and still nothing! He told me to get dressed and that he would do the ultrasound to where you can actually see the baby. He said I would be able to see the flutter of the heart. He didn't want me to go home worrying! So I got dressed and of course at this point I am freaking myself out thinking that maybe there really isn't a baby and that I am going to miscarry or something. So I was about in tears! Thank goodness Collin was with me trying to comfort me. We waited for probably like 15 minutes which seemed like an hour and he finally came in. What a relief! I could see the uterus and the baby inside! I could see the little heart beating and I got to see his/her arms and legs move! It was the most amazing thing. The Dr. said everything looks great! Of course I stressed over nothing! The Dr. said because I'm tall that my uterus is far back under my pelvic bone which makes it harder to hear the heart beat. He said sometimes you can't hear the heart until like 12 weeks. So even though I didn't get to actually hear the heart beat I did get to see the heart and the baby! So I kind of feel lucky in that way. The Dr. said I will find out the sex of it a couple days after new years! I am way excited for that! My next appt. is December 8th. So I will keep you guys updated!

Thanks to Friends, families, and my husband!

So I was just thinking that I need to be more grateful towards my family and friends for being so kind and happy for me about my pregnancy! Not only have most of you congratulated me but you also ask how I am feeling and doing! I have found myself complaining a lot about being sick or whatever and I just have to remind myself to shutup and be grateful for what I have! What a blessing! I seriously don't know what I would do without family. I am pretty blessed to have my sister and her husband here but also Collin's family. Collin's mom is always making sure I have everything I need! She is great! I wish my mom could be here but I am glad I can always call her if I need advice or questions and concerns! And to all my friends, you guys are all great! Thanks for being so excited for me. It shows you really do care! You guys make me want to be a better person and be like that. And finally thanks to my husband! I could not handle all of this without him. He is such a sweetheart. He is always getting me what I need and asking me what he can do. He always gets me something to eat in the morning so I can sit in bed and eat without throwing up. I am sure all of your husbands do the same thing! Sometimes when you can't stand them you just have to think how could you live without them! ha. Well I just felt like saying thanks to everyone! Your the best!

5 Weeks Pregnant!!!!

Ok I know I haven't updated my blog in like 3 months but I never had anything exciting to blog about! Either that or I am just super busy and lazy! ha. Anyways this past Saturday I found out that I am pregnant! For those of you who knew I had just started taking Clomid to help me ovulate more and get my periods regular. So I started taking it on the 3rd day of my cycle last month. Well I started to feel gaggy a little and I wasn't planning on taking the test until like today but my wonderful sister begged me to just take it Saturday because she had a feeling I was! So I gave in and took it. I peed on the stick and within like 30 seconds the test came up when it usually takes like 3 minutes! I looked up and it said PREGNANT! I swear I must have looked at it like 50 times to make sure! I yelled Collins name and he came rushing in and I said we are pregnant! He started to cry and gave me the biggest hug! It was a tender moment. My mom came down yesterday so I decided to wait and surprise her with it. It was the hardest thing keeping the good news from her! Yesterday I tied balloons that said its a girl and one that said its a boy and I put baby clothes over the bed. I took her to the room and opened the door and she was shocked! She also started to cry! It was all worth it in the end. I went to the doctor Monday and I am 5 weeks along and due somewhere around June 7th! I feel so blessed! Me and Collin are super excited to start our own family. My next appointment is November 10th and by that time I will be able to hear the heart beat! I will try my best to keep my blog updated! So exciting!

FLORIDA!

Me and Collin were very lucky to be able to go to Florida this past week! Our friends Ryan and Ruth invited us to go with them and stay in Ruth's parent's house/condo at Summer Bay. We didn't have to pay anything to stay for a whole week! There would have been no way we could have gone to Florida if we had to pay to stay so it worked out awesome! Thanks Ryan and Ruth! We all had a blast! We went to Sea World, the beach, an air boat ride, dinner and show, went on the worlds tallest sky coaster and almost peed my pants! ha. Then we just enjoyed being lazy! Collin served his mission in Florida so he got to see a lot of the families and his companion! One of the families is in the pics and his companion is also. It was cool to meet them! It was such a fun vacation but I am glad to be out of the humidity and back in the dry desert!

FLORIDA!
