The pregnancy progressed well with no real morning sickness, just
fatigue. The fatigue caused me to be late to work one day so I told my
boss. Next person told was Scott's boss because Scott wanted to go with
me to the first doctors appointment. We waited over the next eight
weeks to see the doctor. We went to the doctor and waited what felt
like forever to be seen. Once we finally were in we waited longer too.
Then the time finally came in!!
Then the sound that
changed the rest of our lives forever came. We were able to hear our
babies heart beat for the first time!! Tears of joy filled both of our
eyes! We could not believe that we were ACTUALLY pregnant. Then came
surprise number 2. We thought that I had gotten pregnant sometime in
the middle of January like the 15th or something. From what we read the
baby would be approximately be an inch long. We looked at the screen
and the doctor was measuring our baby. What we would soon find out was
that the baby was not 2.54 cm long...it was actually 3.27 cm long!! What
did that mean?!?!?!?!?! It meant that I was not 8 weeks pregnant, but
actually was 10 weeks! The doctor gave us two pictures and commented
about how active our bundle of joy was. Baby was healthy and all...we
were both beaming with joy.
My mom was excited and nervous at the same time when we called
her to tell her about the doctor's appointment. Since I was STARVING I
was eating and so Scott called my mom for us while I ate. My mom
freaked out a bit over seeing Scott's phone because she thought
something was wrong. Much to her relief everything was okay with all
three of us and now she could start telling everyone our news after we
told the youth group. She was able to tell anyone she wanted that I was
expecting. My mom got to tell her sisters and we told my dad's family
at a family gathering. I got to tell the youth group all together that I
was pregnant and then it was posted on fb with our first sonogram
picture.
