Everything looks good

November 20th- Week 6

So today we got the call from the doctor that the 2nd blood test result came back good. All the levels are where they are supposed to be so we are right on track. What a relief! We are literally taking "baby" steps. The next hurdle is the ultrasound. That will be in one week. Hopefully if all goes well we'll see something this time or even hear a heart beat.

I've been feeling a little under the weather, and also starting to get a bit of morning sickness. For someone who loves to eat, this new feeling of being hungry but don't want to eat anything hasn't been fun. I do still love soup and it's the easiest and quickest way to get some food in my system. Yesterday I wanted tomatoes, and also craving some type of beef stew.

Other than that, I've just been really tired. No real energy to do much of anything. I guess I should take advantage of this time and enjoy resting and relaxing.

Here we go again!

It's November 18th, I'm writing this entry today, but will not post it until a later date. That's because once again, Chris and I are expecting. We actually found out about 2 weeks ago. Right away we made a doctor's appointment for a blood test. The doctor said all the hormone levels are where they should be...and that I am "barely" pregnant. She adviced we do another blood test in 7-10 days, then schedule an ultrasound the week after that. So tomorrow will be our second blood test. And since this time I'm having even less pregnancy symtoms than the last time...I'm feeling more worried and nervous.

I told Chris, until we go past the 10 week mark, I am not going to start to get excited about it. It's not easy to feel "cautiously" happy. I'm also trying to fight off a cold and physically feeling drained and mentally unfocused. There are just so many unknows and so much out of our control. I hope after tomorrow's blood test we'll have some answers that'll ease our mind.
