We first found out a few months ago. I hadn't been feeling very well, I thought something was seriously wrong with me. I kept feeling like I was going to pass out and had some slight nausea, but I wasn't really thinking I was pregnant until I had a really neat experience happen to me at work. I work with adults that have mental disabilities and I love my job. One day at work I was reading a book to a client who has Down's Syndrome when she stopped me and put her hand on my stomach and said "You're having a baby!" I told her I wasn't and went back to reading, she stopped me again and said "Yes, you're having a baby!" It kind of caught me by surprise because she was so sure she was right and was kind of upset when I kept telling her I wasn't. I couldn't stop thinking about that experience all day. I went home and told Trevor about it and he was just as shocked as I was. So we decided to go buy some pregnancy tests. I still wasn't thinking I was pregnant and I felt really silly about taking a test, so after Trevor left for work early in the morning, I decided what the heck it won't hurt to just take one test. So I got out of bed, took the test and waited a couple of minutes... TWO LINES showed up. I couldn't believe it! I started crying and let out a squeal of excitement, I had to take two more tests just to be sure that it was real. I called Trevor right away and told him to come home. We were both on cloud 9 for the whole rest of the day. I didn't even want to go to work, I just wanted to talk to Trevor about our sweet baby all day. We have both been looking forward to this day and were so excited it was finally here! It is the perfect timing and we know that we are being so blessed.
I've been feeling really good for the most part, definitely tired and I have my nausea and throwing up times but I'm grateful for those because it means our baby is healthy! Trevor was making fun of me because I woke up one morning and was feeling great. No nausea, no throwing up, just perfectly normal. I started freaking out thinking something was wrong and just kept telling Trevor I wish I was feeling sick. Trevor said, "Be careful what you ask for." Sure enough half an hour later I ended up over the sink in the bathroom. So now I know, if I can get a couple of hours in of feeling great, then I will take it and not complain! :) Trevor has been the best husband through all of this. He is always doing the sweetest things and is so good about making sure me and the baby get what we need.
I'm so extremely excited and grateful for this sweet baby that is going to be joining our family! Trevor and I already love it so much. I look at the cute ultrasound pictures every day, I can't wait for it to get here!
Doesn't it just look so cute already!! Ah, I'm so in love.
Coming December 2013!
