almost 10 weeks!!!
so we are in our 9th week approaching the start of the tenth week! and i totally understand now what everyone means when they say every pregnancy is different!!!
when i was pregnant with jamison it was a breeze the first trimester! it was so easy i wouldnt have even known i was pregnant had i not tested! i didnt have a lick of morning sickness and i wasnt tired at all i was perfect no food cravings and no adversions either!!!
But this pregnancy is 100% different! i knew i was pregnat before i even tested my gosh the symptoms were there. with jamison i didnt get a positive till 2 days after my missed period and with this pregnancy i got a positive 6 days after ovulation so8 days before my missed period! i know crazy but it happened!!!
With this pregnancy i am constantly sea sick feeling i have had a few days where i have felt great but mostly it is constant sea sick nothing helps and food worsens it. there are tons of food i simply CANNOT eat! lol like ground beef just saying it and typing it makes me gag a little, chicken is a hit and miss, mexican food, chinese food, and pizza they all make me sick! but i can eat bread and potatoes and steak if i dont cook it. lol but i havent gained any weight yet and have actually lost!
we have our next appt on the 31st of this month. i am still nervous i know i heard a heartbeat already and everything was perfect but i cant help but be nervous that everything isnt. after i pass the 10 week mark i will be fine! i lost the first one at 10 weeks so that is my deadline ahaha so to speak.
so this week the baby is almost the size of a grape but i feel like it is much bigger! for not gaining any weight i sure look like i have! lol i have that cute little pooch on my tummy that can easily be mistaken as fat lol but it reminds me that there is a baby growing!
so yeah i will have a better update on monday but we are so happy and blessed that we get to have the little one joining our family in august! cant wait!!!

Prayers Are Answered!!!!
After 2 seperate miscarriages one in May and one is August, and after 2 months of trying to figure out what is wrong with me we finally figured it out!!
aparrently it happens to many women! i have low progesterone which happened after the first miscarriage! it makes it so my body doesnt produce enough to sustane both me and the baby so my body aborts the baby. so now we know what is wrong!!!!
so a few months ago i started the regiment of progesterone cream for 2 weeks a cycle after ovulation since that is when your body needs the progesterone! plus if you re constantly n progesterone it will actually make it so you wont ovulate, that is what happens in pregnancy, so i have been doing progesterone for a little while now!
and Our Family Is GROWING BY TWO ADDORABLE LITTLE FEET!!!!!! we are finally pregnant!!!! it only took 2 miscarriages and 3 months later but we are excited for this! it has been a long time coming! i have definetely become closer to my heavenly father in this process by trusting him and knowing that he is all knowing and there were reasons for our losses! and i have become closer to my dear husband! in these losses he has been my rock when i am uncontrolable and he is there to pick me up with every other announced pregnancy! he has been there to tell me it is ok and that we have a very special little one waiting to join our family!
So my prayers have been answered! we had an early ultrasound to check ont he pregnancy and make sure it was progressing normal, and to much relieve it is! we got to see the little peanut and got to hear its beautiful heartbeat! let me tell you that sound is the best thing in the world when you are praying so hard for it!!
So our little one will be joining our family at the end of August! between the 27th to Sept 1st. the reason why we dont have an exact date is because the doctor we see says if our measurements are within a week of the projected due date they keep that due date even if it is off by a few days, so our projected due date is the 27th but we ovulated late by 4 days so really it would be the 31st but since it is within that week the due date of the 27th stays!
I am beyond relieved to know that there is a little one there and everything is going well! i am actually nauseous with this pregnancy which is something i am not use to!!! with Jamison i wasnt nauseous AT ALL!!! and this one last night knocked me down to laying ont he couch for hours because i was so sick, like i wanted to throw up but my body wouldnt! youknow when you feel like all i need to do is throw up and i will feel better? i felt that way and couldnt do anything about it!
so we are 7 weeks strong and so beyond excited! Jamison says baby all the time and points to my belly! we ask himt o give the baby kisses and he will kiss my tummy! i am so happy we are having them further apart then i originally wanted, just because he understands more and he is going to help me! not to mention i will only have one baby in diapers instead of two!! that in and of itself i s going to be a money saver!!! and plus i get to teach him about babies and he actually retains it! he is excited when he saw the baby on the screen he pointed and smiled he knows whats going on so i am so happy we get to have the baby later then earlier!
so there is our happy news cant wait and so happy!!! thanks for listening!!
this is its heartbeat at 131 bpm! healthy and strong!
this is our peanut at 7 weeks and 2 days!
