Bebe Numero Deux

Tim and I went to my first doctor's appointment this morning! All the old routines came back like they were yesterday. Urine sample, weigh-in, blood pressure....you know, all the fun stuff. The pregnancy was confirmed. Before my blood test I was in the office for just a "yearly w/ a missed period." (Sorry for any guys reading this!) I had an ultrasound to confirm how far along I am. We're at about 7 weeks. The heartbeat was strong; about 133 bpm. The ultrasound tech is already saying it's a boy. I'm not sure why. We're shooting for a due date of 8-8-08!

Thankfully, I'm not anemic yet. I'm feeling queasy just about all day but no major vomiting...yet. That in itself is an answered prayer. I dread taking my prenatal vitamins. They just smell terrible. My doctor gave me a capsule form so hopefully, they won't smell as bad.

Anywho, that's about it in a nutshell. Rachel is eagerly awaiting her new baby brother or sister. When I told her that mommy had a baby in belly, she put in finger in my belly button and said, "open". So, we're all very excited!

Once I find my camera, I'll post some pics of our little blueberry.

UPDATE: So the new vitamin made me feel really yucky last night. I think it was b/c I took it on a somewhat empty stomach. I should have known better. Tonight, I took it immediately after I ate my dinner. I think that helped considerably. My queasiness kind of fades in and out. Only a few more weeks of this. I know it's all worth it. Rachel is my constant reminder.
