IMPORTANT DATES!

Today was my intake apt at UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento. I am completely new to this medical facility and since I've had Kaiser my entire life I was a little scared. They were all very nice, I did paperwork and labwork. They scheduled me for my next two appointments, January 30th and February 27th! I'll have my next ultra sound on the 30th and we'll find out what we're having on Feb. 27th!! We are so excited to find out the sex!! Make sure you check the site after February to find out the news. I'll post right away. Oh and Mommy and Daddy are doing great.

11 weeks!

Tomorrow I will be 11 weeks and I feel great! The holidays were great, but it sucked not being able to enjoy a drink on new year's eve. Oh well, it's worth it! I had two full weeks off from work and I enjoyed every second of it. It was nice to relax and get in as much rest as possible. Now we're back to the grind, but it makes the days go faster. I called my new Dr.'s office at UC Davis medical center and they weren't able to schedule me an apt with my Dr until Jan. 30th! By then I will be 14 weeks and already in my second trimester. I am a little disappointed because I really want an ultrasound at 12 weeks! I'm hoping they can move it up I'm just waiting for them to call me back.
David got a "pregnacy book for dads" for xmas from my cousin and he's actually been reading it! He's been much more concerned with me since he's been reading and he'll let me know little things he's learned, saying, "well the book says...." HAHA! I'm glad he's starting to understand more the changes the baby and I are going through. I feel like the baby brings us closer everyday. Each day I feel happier and more excited, overwhelmed with love and happiness! Love the feeling!


David and I on December 31, 2008 celebrating the end of a wonderful year together!

9 weeks Belly shot- 2 MONTHS


9 weeks Second photo shoot with Gma!

Look how big it's grown in just 2 weeks!!
My second apt was really quick because the Dr. just wanted to take a picture of my baby when I was a little further along than last time. Today I'm 9 weeks and can't wait to see my baby because other than feeling like a fat cow, I feel great! No morning sickness and the fatigue has pretty much subsided. David couldn't take the morning off so Grandma Mary (my mom) came with me. We didn't get to hear the heart beat but we did see it flickering. It looks like it doubled in size over the last two weeks and my uterus is getting bigger! It measured 8 weeks 6 days so my due date is now July 30, 2009!!! I gained 2.5 pounds AAAAAAW! It's the holiday food (I hope) :-(

6 weeks- Ultrasound Baby 'M" makes debut!

Week 6 day 6- Dec. 9, 2008


So today was our first Dr. apt at Kaiser in Folsom. We got to see our little jalepeno seed and it's little heart flickering. David was expecting to see more, but it's just a bundle of cells. The Dr said according to the mesurements I was a week behind what I thought I was, so I was only 6 weeks 6 days rather than 8 weeks. DUE DATE IS JULY 29, 2009!!!
The Dr. said to come back when I'm 9 weeks to get a better shot of the baby, but CONGRATULATIONS you're having a baby!! I had blood and urine tests and spoke with a prenatal clerk to set up my next apt... Christmas eve morning!
