Hubby and I will be getting to spend a few days just the two of us later this month as my parents and my baby sister are heading to San Antonio for 4 days and 3 nights. They've asked us to keep an eye on the apartment for them while they're gone.
So on to doctors. Well, I got on Medicaid recently for mainly one reason:
We found out on March 27th that we are pregnant with our second child. I was nervous at first and I didn't want to tell anyone until the baby was actually here. I didn't even want to tell Hubby. I didn't want to get any one's hopes up. I didn't even want to get my own up. But I couldn't help it when just one week later we were at my mom's house for Easter and I decided I wanted them to know. I had already told Hubby and though he was worried about telling them so soon I just knew that they would be supportive and I was right. I showed them the above photo claiming that it was a video of my little nephew.
The main thing that stopped some of my apprehension about this pregnancy was the fact that I've been symptom city since finding out. Nausea, itchy swollen breasts, fatigue, etc. etc. etc. I smile throughout it all though. I've been asked how I could possibly smile when every few minutes I'm gagging (no real sickness yet just lots of gagging and stomach turning). The answer is simple: I never felt this when I was pregnant with Jordan. The reason I took a test to begin with was because I was a little nauseous out of nowhere. But after that there was nothing. I felt no other symptoms. So now when I feel nausea or fatigue or even just itchy, I can't help the smile that spreads across my face. My little one is fighting.
According to math I'm 12 weeks and 3 days (as of today). My first doctors appointment was this past Tuesday and my next is in less than 4 weeks on June 2nd. My first ultrasound is scheduled for this Monday and I'm doing everything I can not to dread the ultrasound. I'm just hoping that it all goes well.
Well that's it for now I guess. Wish me luck :)
