Baby

After we got our surprise Valentines day that we were pregnant we are still over the moon. I'm still very nervous because it is so early. I have been having some cramping which according to my Dr and a bunch of other people this is completely normal as long as it isn't accompanied by bleeding. I guess just because we have waited so long for this I'm just so scared to lose it. I'm just praying every day for Gods comfort and peace to not worry myself sick and have faith.
            I went in Feb 15th and had my hcg tested and it came back at 34. Then went back in on Friday to be tested again. The goal is for it to double every 48 hrs and it had gone up to 100.1 which shows them it is a progressing pregnancy and not a chemical pregnancy. I wasn't going to go back for another but I decided to call the Dr Monday and set an appt to go back Tuesday and get one more test to make sure it is increasing good. Really just for my own state of mind. We also scheduled our first ultrasound on March 2. Now we will only be 6 weeks at that time so it will just be a little peanut but we will get to see the heart beat hopefully. I've read you can't always see it at the 6 week ultrasound but fingers crossed we can =].
             So now just comes the waiting game. I would say the waiting game for the birth and yes that is part of it. But more then anything I'm SSOO nervous and ready to get out of the 1st Trimester. I know your chance of miscarriage drops SSSOOO much then. So please keep us in your prayers. Be praying for the baby and MY Sanity!! lol. Oh and I guess Alans sanity too since I'm probably already driving him crazy lol

Expecting

So after 7 years of marriage and trying to concieve, and 9 LONG months of fertility treatments we are so happy to say we are FINALLY Expecting!! We had all these big plans of holding out and not telling anyone for 3 months yada yada yada...Well we just found out on Valentines day and we reached our 3 day maximum of secret with-holding lol.
I'm so happy/scared/nervous/ecstatic/words i can't even think of. Just trusting God to help us through it. He;s never let us down before and I don't think he plans on starting anytime soon =]
