Sep. 1, 2007 - baby update
sono showed baby doing A-OK! :) strong heartbeat, right size etc. It definitely gave me peace since the only other baby I have seen growing strong at 8 weeks was my ds6, so -though I know there are always possible problems - I also know that MY main problem is getting to this point and so it comforts me.
if the extent of my nauseousness is any sign of how well the baby is doing, then Praise God that the baby is growing strong because I feel horrible! from when i wake up in morning til when i'm in bed at night I am feeling sick - I am definitely learning to offer up my sufferings LOL but am still a bit concerned that I won't be able to do school the way i want to etc... also I just keep praying that the baby is unphased by my inability to always swallow my vitamins etc. I know ds6 turned out healthy as could be despite my losing 10 pounds at the beginning of that pregnancy, so I'm sure everything is fine.
I'm 9 weeks now - I think with ds6 i was nauseous til 16 weeks or so, so I'm hoping that maybe this time it will end sooner. I have an appointment for Sept 14, so am hoping to be able to start going off the progesterone then because it is really a bummer! but certainly worth the end result if it helps hold baby in there!
thanks for all your prayers.... doctor has never given me an official due date, but I think I'm due April 4, 2008.

It's been nice "meeting" you this afternoon.
Congratulations on your pregnancy! I peeked back through your blog and am so sorry for your losses. I have lost three babies through miscarriage and have a lot of sympathy for other families that have gone through it. (We have been blessed with six children, and one on the way.)
I look forward to reading more GOOD NEWS for your family!!
Blessings, Beckie :o)

I'm so glad to hear that everything is progressing nicely. We are always lifting your and your baby up to the Father. I hope the sickness ends for you soon. 16 weeks here and still going strong. Seems like getting pregnant is the easiest way for me to lose weight. My doctor just said I could start taking flintstones instead of the prenatals, since I can't keep them down anyway.
Praying for a healthy 9 months. Although I guess it's only 7 more really.
