Week 14

This past week was pretty rough. I ended up with a sinus infection towards the end of week 13 and had to go on medicine. Oh how fun that was! It seems though that I have fully recovered and hopefully all is well with the baby. We haven't been able to hear the heart beat with our monitor as I believe it's a little early yet but I think we've heard the baby kick. It's easier to hear that than the heart beat at this stage. Today is Thanksgiving so we will be going over to Jason's family's house. I really wish we could have gone back to see my family but I think we're planning on doing that next year. We will be going into week 15 on Sat and going back to the doctor for a checkup on Dec. 7th. Fingers crossed that all is well. Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Week 13

Well, we're half way through week 13 of the story of how Widdle Wyatt came to be. That is good news to me because I feel like things are settling down. Surprisingly I'm getting some energy back. Just in time as finals are less than a month away. I had a really wierd feeling on Monday and called the doctor. After talking to my friend and doing some research we deduced that I had felt what they call "fluttering". Basically it feels like when your eye twitches uncontrollably, but in your stomach and apparently that is the baby moving around a little. It's the first signs that you feel the baby. I haven't had it sense then but it was pretty cool. I'm really looking forward to the baby beginning to move around and express his or herself. Poor Jason is sick this week so I'm having to stay away from him and take care of him and the house the best I can. I feel bad because it seems like we've gone through an endless cycle of sinus/allergy stuff the last three months. At any rate, I'm off the medicine and things are going good. Our plans are to get the baby's room in order over the Thanksgiving holidays and then as quick as we can get the rest of the house ready. The dogs come up and sniff my stomach every chance they get. I hope they will be good with the baby. I know Shea loves babies and dotes on them when they come over. We should be taking some pictures soon of the two of us with the little one in the oven and hopefully getting a more updated ultrasound picture as the only one I have is of the baby at 6 weeks. Maybe I'll post that anyway just to see if any of you can guess where the baby is.
