long time

Well it's been a long time since I have written! I'm not good at this blog thing at all!  I will be 19 weeks tomorrow and things have been crazy I will post most in a few weeks about all of that!  So far I'm feeling good some days and bad the others, it's not horrible!!  It's worth it!  I have a monthly baby check up tomorrow so I will let you all know how that goes, and we have the gender ultrasound on Nov 15!  So exciting!!!!!!!!! My mom came to visit during week 17, here is some photos!

And here is last weeks photo at 18 weeks, well a little more than 18 weeks but at least it's up!

Dr and more tests

We went to the Dr on Tuesday September 13th and they did a hour test for Sugar and it came back that I passed with flying colors, they did a early one because they figured I would end up with High Sugar early in pregnancy because of my family history and because I have PCOS which messes with your sugars as well!  I have to go back to the Dr on Oct 10th for a exam, and then again on Nov 15th for a Ultrasound that we should be able to find out what the baby is!  So far the time is flying by!  I can't believe how fast it has gone!  I am starting my 12th week!!!!  Can I get excited yet?  I'm still trying not to get to excited!  I know a lot can happen, but I also know that my God is in control and everything will work out according to his plan.  They gave me new medicine to try and that has been a great drug, no more sick stomach for me, at least not for the most part!  :)  I can't wait for Nov 15th and I hope that the baby works with me so we can see what we are having, Tommy thinks it's a Girl and has since day one!  My mother thinks it's a girl!  And his mother thinks it's a girl!  We have always wanted a girl first!  But from the beginning I thought it was a boy, now I'm not so sure, I find myself saying she all the time!  I want to be able to pick out colors to do for bedding and stuff like that!  I also want to try to make some cute things for them to make a room theirs!  Like a cute name plate or something!  I'm not very crafty at all so I'm sure it won't turn out great but it's worth a shot, and it will be made by me (Mommy)!  I like the sound of that! 

Ultrasound

Well we had the 7 week ultrasound last week!  Sorry I haven't updated!  Things have been really crazy and my computer hasn't been working right!  The ultrasound went great and the due date is still April 1, 2012, (as my mom says since I'm due on April Fools Day, that we are gonna have twins but one is gonna be hiding behind the other one the whole time!  LOL)  I would love to have twins but I'm not sure with the first pregnancy that I could handle that!  The baby's heart rate was 157 and they said it was 7 weeks 1 day!!  

Smoke Free 3 week

I have been smoke free for 3 weeks!!!  I can't believe it's been that long already!  It's been a lot eaiser then I thought it would be!  I guess having a baby growning in you makes it a lot eaiser!!!  When I crave one I just think of my baby!!!!  We go to the Dr on Thrusday for a Ultrasound!  I'm hoping everything is ok and normal!  I go some days thinking that I'm not pregnant anymore!  I've been having crazy dreams at night.  Is this normal this early in pregnancy?  I am up a ton durning the night to pee!!  I thought I was up a lot at night before but nothing like this!  It's like every 20 mins when I first lay down!!  This is normal?  I'm not sure who to ask all these questions to, as to everyone having different answers!!  Well I better get going, have lots to do today!

SMOKE FREE

I have been smoke free for one week!!!!!

The Mindas Family

Thank you to all of you that are already praying for us!  We just found out that we are going to be parents!  I am only 4 weeks at this point, but very excited!!!  We have been trying to get pregnant for a few years and have had no luck, we started seeing a infertility Dr, in March of this year, and we were told because of my levels and the PCOS that we wouldn't be able to get pregnant naturally!  I was very down, we had tried fertility drugs for a few months with no luck!  We didn't want to spend the money on all the expensive stuff right now as insurance doesn't cover anything, and we decided when it was time we would have the money to do it!  So we gave up!!!!  I was going to go back on birth control this month and start some meds that I haven't been on due to trying to get pregnant! 

I haven't been feeling great for the last few weeks being more tired then normal and having lower back pain, along with some other stuff!  I didn't expect that I was pregnant at all!!!!  As I have felt this way before and really thought I was and wasn't!!!  But when I was late for my cycle I decided I would wait a few more days and take a test, I had two tests that I had bought last year and were in storage in the garage so I wasn't sure if they heat had made them go bad, I took two within a few hours of each other and they were both positive, I told Tommy (my husband) about it, and he told me to wait a few days and get new tests!  Ok y'all know that I could not wait a few days, but I did wait till the next morning and went before work and got more, and took 2 again within a few hours of each other and both were positive!  Because my body is so out of line, I had to go to the Dr for blood work just to make sure!!!!  And got the results on Wednesday!!!!  I"M SOO EXCITED!  Since I was told it wouldn't happen!!  I am telling people early so they can pray for us, as to with PCOS it can cause miscarriages so everyone can pray!
Please continue to pray for us!

Thanks
