March 22, 201610 yr Good news on all accounts and especially for that little bun in the oven! Congrats!! :)
March 22, 201610 yr Author Thanks guys! Every day is an adventure. Yesterday I was craving egg rolls dipped in ketchup, lol. I have an appointment on Thursday to start prenatal care and I am so nervous! Hopefully everything will go well and I will get to see an OB soon.
March 22, 201610 yr Aww don't be nervous sweetheart. It is a fraught time for a mama for sure but also fabulous. Sending you calming vibes. What's meant to be will be and clearly you were meant to be pregnant :) x
March 23, 201610 yr I don't really "know" you at all but HUGE CONGRATULATIONS on your amazing pregnancy and I think Marti has it right ..."what's meant to be, will be"! I believe everything happens for a reason and you and your hubby deserve this. My best wishes!
March 25, 201610 yr Author Thank you Karen! :) Doctor's appointment went well. He confirmed that I'm about 6 weeks along. He took my blood pressure, weight, and checked my heart/lungs. I started taking a prenatal vitamin yesterday and I am waiting for the obstetrician to call me. I have lost another 2-3 pounds since finding out I was pregnant. Don't ask me how I'm losing weight, but that's totally fine with me. I didn't have egg rolls, but I ended up dipping chicken into ketchup yesterday. I don't know if it's just my pregnancy talking, but it tasted sooo good.
March 25, 201610 yr So happy to hear this...another quit train babe...look after yourself sweetheart....xx
April 3, 201610 yr Author Thank you Doreen! <3 Coming up to 8 weeks now. :) I still haven't heard from my obstetrician, so I'm going to call my family doctor on Monday to make sure he referred me. I'm pretty sure I should have had an ultrasound by now.

I'm pretty sure I should have had an ultrasound by now. I'm not sure how it works in Canada, but in the UK our first ones are usually at 12 weeks, and then the next at 20 (from memory). I wouldn't be surprised if you have them more often over there, because 2 never seemed like enough to me! Let us know how you get on!

I have an obstetrician appointment tomorrow, but I'm not sure if they will be performing an ultrasound then. I hope so, but I would think they'd tell me. I have no idea though, lol. Hopefully everything goes well tomorrow though and the OB answers my questions.
April 25, 201610 yr Somehow I missed this when it was first posted last month... CONGRATS!!!!! You appear to have made a lot of good ,healthy choices that are really paying off. Way to go!
May 2, 201610 yr Author Thank you! <3 I go in for my first ultrasound on Thursday. I'm hoping the further I am along, the less tired I'll feel. I am absolutely exhausted.
May 2, 201610 yr Take good care of yourself! So very excited for you, and hoping your energy returns, soon.
May 3, 201610 yr Tasha told me that she had more energy and felt better after 14 weeks :good: It's going so fast!
May 4, 201610 yr Author Thank you so much Nancy! Oh, that's awesome to hear Ross. I sure hope so, lol. My house is a disaster. Also, tiny baby bump. It's not much, but definitely there. :D
