So far so good! Our number keep coming back good!

Tuesday Jan 19th - HCG levels were 150
Thursday Jan 21st - HCG levels were 350
Monday Jan 25th - HCG levels were 1643

My HCG levels are supposed to double every 48 to 72 hours... so things are looking good so far! :-)

Symptoms: include really sore breasts, mild cramping, quizzy feeling randomly through out the day and night, and tired ALL the time. I've been trying to eat better, and if I'm doing good it takes away some of the yuckies. (giggle)

Tomorrow we go in for our first sonogram... so excited can't wait! I'm hoping we will find out how far along we really are. Dr. said 5 weeks when we first started seeing her again, but I think that it is more like today is 5 weeks 5 days we will see if I'm correct or not... Once we get closer to 6 weeks we should be able to see the heart beating! I can't wait to see that little flutter in Nibblers chest, and yes I said Nibbler!

Nibbler is a character from on of my favorite cartoon TV shows called Futurama. He is a little alien that is totally adorable and well super intelligent, and a ton more admirable traits :-)

Well, I head home to TX on Wed can't wait to see everyone!

We're Pregnant!

Our Latest News!

We're Pregnant!

I went to the Dr on Wed. Jan 13th and the test came back negative :-( I had this feeling before that I was... I don't know if it was intuition or just knowing... I was really sad that the test came back negative. DH knew I was having a bad day and brought me home a red rose :-) He is so caring! And I thought that my monthly came :-( but on Sunday things weren't really going normal. So, DH suggested taking another test and it came back Positive! (and I took the test at 11:30 at night!) I took another test the next morning and it came back positive also!

DH and I went to see our Dr. this morning. Things couldn't have gone better! They are being really careful because of the miscarriage. But, it was really nice going into the office and everyone being happy to see us coming back in for a pregnancy test! Anyways, the Dr. didn't really have to tell us anything she walked in with a BIG smile on her face and gave me a hug and said Congratulations! I couldn't be happier! I'm dancing in my pants! lol.

Dh is a little more reserved but very happy! I know he worries about loosing another baby. I can't imagine being in his shoes... Not knowing how to deal with me to make me feel better and at the same time going though the grieving process on his own.

We are in discussions on what we are going to call the little one till it gets here. Some of the ones we discussed:
R2
Sweet Pea
Poppet
Bump 2

Ones I haven't mentioned yet:
pill
wiggle worm
gummi

I guess that one is for another day!

So, at this point all is well! I have a little spotting, but Dr says as long as it stays brown all is good. They are watching my blood work just to be on the safe side. :-) It looks like our little one will be due around September 24, 2010. And we probably got pregnant around the first of the year and our Anniversary!

Happy New Year 2010!

Well it's been a while since I've checked in. Hubby and I haven't been blessed with a little one as of yet. But, we just celebrated our 1st anniversary :-) We didn't do much, slept in went and had our pictures done at iSmile Studios, had a late lunch at Giffy's BBQ and then just hung out together to bring in the New Year. Oh, Happy New Year! Welcome 2010!

In the last couple of months we've been very busy :-) We also celebrated our first Thanksgiving and Christmas as a married couple. And we couldn't be happier!

For Thanksgiving we went to Brazil we spent some time in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. My mom, sister and brother were with us. It surley wasn't a traditional Thanksgiving, but it is one that we will always remember. For Christmas we decided to stay home for the most part. We did go to a friends house for dinner, but other than that it was all about us this year :-)

Well, I will continue to update. Below are some pics of the monkey and bracelet that we put together to Remember Bump. For now may God Bless the new year and may it be filled with happiness and love.
