So I have done 3 pregnancy tests now and they have all given me a positive, so its really sunken in now. We are really having a baby...WOW!!! Today we went and looked at strollers and baby stuff and it was so wonderful. We picked up a book for Kyler about mommy having a baby and we are talking to him about it already. He wants a baby sister!!
I am hoping the next two weeks go well, thats when the bad nausea started for me with Ky. I am hoping and praying that I dont experience it the same this time. Now the important part is getting the HCG levels from the doctors and seeing if they are elevated. If they are then that means that we will have to go for an early ultrasound, the internal kind (yuck) to see if there are one or two growing in there. I am so nervous to find out. Hopefully just one little peanut.
Overall we are both over the moon happy and excited.

We're expecting!!
Wow. Those are the words that I am finding myself saying most often right now. Its pretty amazing to think that we are expecting baby #2.
I will take you back about 12 days to bring up to speed on our journey so far. Last week Tuesday I got sick, throwing up and very weak. I had been feeling off for a few days but dismissed it as the bug that had been going around. We after a couple days of throwing up and still not feeling any better I thought something was up. I had also begun to get some pregnancy symptoms. I got this feeling that maybe I was pregnant. I was even getting cravings. Odd for me. So finally on Saturday night Todd asked me if I was pregnant, well maybe, but I doubt it how could that be. The pregnancy symptoms just continued to increase and so Monday we did a pregnancy test (thats 11 days before my expected period) and sure enough we got a faint line. WOW WOW WOW. Its so early so of course I am feeling skeptical, so I went to the walk in the next day and the doctor ordered prenatal blood work, which we are still awaiting the results of, hopefully tomorrow. Today I was at the $Store and noticed they have pregnancy tests, well I decided that I get one and give it a shot, well sure enough, its positive too. Even tho two tests now tell me I am I really need to hear it from the doctor. We are over the moon so excited to be expecting baby #2. Praying for a pregnancy that isnt as hard as my first one and a healthy baby! Its all so exciting.
I have to admit those, that I am a bit worried about twins right now. Being that my pregnancy was detected so early on the home test that must mean my HCG levels are high, which can be an indicator of a multiples. So we shall see what the doctor has to say.
Keep posted, we will keep this up to date with our journey!
