I had my 2nd OB appointment yesterday. She had to do a quick ultrasound because she wasn't able to get fetal heart tones with the doppler... everything still looks good, the heartbeat was 176 bpm. I have decided to do some 1st & 2nd trimester screening for Trisomy 18 and Trisomy 21 (Down...

Here is my peanut at 8 weeks, 5 days (on 9/17). Sorry it's blurry, I had to use my digital camera to take a pic of the ultrasound pic and it didn't want to focus on it.

Wow, I feel special!

Thank you, miss Jayne!

She knows, and she didn't act the way I thought she would. Whew! Now I can tell everybody.

My mother is coming over this afternoon so I'm going to share the news that she has another grandbaby on the way with her. I'm so nervous, I have butterflies thinking about this. I honestly don't think she will be pleased with the news. And if she acts disappointed, or worse, mad.... I think...

Gretchen, I have a 21 year old who lives with his girlfriend. After I told him the news the other night I told him to be VERY CAREFUL... it only takes ONE time... while pointing at my belly. You know that is exactly what he wanted to hear from his pregnant mother.

Quote: I expect to hear the "Don't you know how that works by now?" kind of questions. I have a friend of mine who has a 20 year old like me. When she found out she was pregnant, everyone wanted to know what she was gonna do. DO???? When she had finally had it, she told her Aunt, I am...

Quote: Because it is a BIG SURPRISE!!!!! Go ahead and expect the "What are you gonna do?" questions. I expect to hear the "Don't you know how that works by now?" kind of questions.

Thanks, Debi. Just didn't want anyone to ask how I'm feeling, etc. on there until I've told my parents. My brother is one of my "friends" and he doesn't know yet either. Why am I so nervous about telling my own family?

Quote: Tell me about it! Keep this hush hush on FB for now, please, I haven't told all of my family yet... as in my parents.

Yes, 5. But my oldest is on his own, so his empty room is going to be used once again.

Thank you all, you're all so sweet.

of the PREGNANCY closet and announce that I am 9 weeks, 2 days pregnant with baby #5! This was a BIG surprise. It took me about a month to be able to deal with the reality of it... I'm mean, I'll be almost 43 years old, with a 22 year old, a 17 year old, a 12 year old, and an 8 year old when...
