Freaky Friday

So begins the weekend, finally! I am so thrilled to be done with this week, and though each day seemed to fly by, the actual week seemed to be 4 extra days long, lol!

There will be lots of baby announcements in the next couple of days. Tonight we are attending a Halloween party, where we will let the rest of our friends know the big news by way of costume:

I will be wearing this "bun oven" and my husband will be dressed like a baker with a chefs hat and the words "The Bun Maker" on his apron, that should be fun :) Then on Monday we are allowed to dress up for work, I am a little more nervous about this reveal, but I plan to wear this shirt and see how long it takes people to get it:

Pregnancy wise I am feeling so good it is almost unnerving, I am in that place after morning sickness but before baby's movements are felt and it is very scary for me. My doppler has been a great  help, though I try not to use it more than a couple of times per week, just in case. Our anatomy scan will be on 11.21.11 and until then not even another peek at baby :( Oh but I forgot, I get to have an early glucose test because I had Gestational Diabetes during my first pregnancy, so lucky me I get to have an extra one! Haha, oh well, whatever it takes for a healthy bundle :)

Happy Halloween, and be safe this weekend!

The End Result :)

The "plan" my fertility doc had us on. Dr. Dudely from Seattle Reproductive, amazing people work there!

There may be a less annoying way to post this, but if so I sure don't know it, lol!

Monday, Monday...

Wow have I been sick! It kept me home from work more than once, and I have been sleeping constantly! Went to the Doctor and they placed me on antibotics, but honestly as long as it took me to get better I think I could have done it on my own!
Things with baby are going great, our NT scan brought our DS risk to 1 in 2,000 or more and Trisomy 18 risk to 1 in 10,000. We broke the news to all the family at this point, kids included. I think that I will probably be telling co-workers next Tuesaday at the 14 week marker. I am still experienceing nausea and did throw-up last night so I guess I am not quite out of the morning sickness woods just yet :(
Well not much more to mention I am just glad to be feeling better.

Bump...?



Weeks from left to right: 8, 9, 10 , and 11



Not even a Monday can bring me down...

Getting ready to head out for our 10 week 6 day scan! Not only do I get to see that little bundle, I am getting closer and closer to that 2nd trimester mark, only 14 days now! The excitement is killing me :)
  We have been listening to the heartbeat each day, I was having trouble finding it for the longest. Well- after my last doctor appointment, my midwife said "let me just take a listen, but you have to promise not to freak out if.." of course I agreed and after awhile she found it! Well baby was much higher than I expected so I would have never found him/her. Anyway since then I have found it regularly and what a God send that doppler has been! Well I am off I will post pics as soon as I return :)
