My Second Appointment

I had my second appointment today! Tim and I got to see our sweet pea on the ultrasound as well as the heart beat!!! The baby is 0.64cm long. :-) We are very excited! It was amazing to see the little sea monkey growing inside of me!!! According to the preg wheel & my LMP I am due on December 9th, but according to the u/s machine and baby's size I'd be Due December 13th. I've been doing well, just really tired and battling a little bit of nausea. I have another appointment and u/s scheduled for next week, so I will keep everyone posted! Love, Nicole

My First Appointment

I had my first appointment today (I am 5 weeks along). It went well, just normal check up stuff and some labs. I will have an ultrasound on my next appointment in two weeks (April 22). The Doctor confirmed my due date, December 9th! :-) I am feeling well . . . just a little bit tired, but most likely due to my hectic work schedule this week. I don't have too much else to report. On a side note . . . Tim and I could use some help coming up with girl names. :-) I will keep you posted on my progress.
Love,
Nicole

More than Double

I'm just too excited!!! I drew my blood at work again . . . HCG levels are supposed to double about every 2-3 days. . . . and mine have more than doubled in 48 hours. Thursday night my level was 356, and Saturday night my level was 869! This is definately good news! I will keep everyone posted.

Love,
Nicole

I have a bun in the oven . . .

Hi Everyone!

I thought I would start a blog to keep my family & friends updated on my progress. If I haven't told you by now . . . Tim and I are pregnant! We are due December 9th. My secret evil plan worked -- I have Christmas and New Year's off on Maternity Leave. Tim and I are very excited!!! Of course we happened to find out on April 1st and my family thought it was some kind of April Fool's prank -- but it is definatley not. I've peed on a stick 7 times (all positive) and I drew my blood at work to confirm it! I am still a little shocked! Although I am only officially 17 days past ovulation/conception -- I am considered 4 weeks along -- which means I am 1 month pregnant! Who knew that you were already a month into your pregnancy by the time you figure it out. Well . . . that just means one month down and 8 to go (or Baby is 11% downloaded)! I have made my first Doctor's appointment for next Thursday. I will keep everyone posted on how things progress. Love, Nicole
