The nausea has really amped the past few days, it doesn’t matter what time of day or what’s going on. I’ve noticed it centers itself around when I eat or how long it’s been since I last ate. It’s getting old really, really quickly. Anyway, more later.

Has it really been 8 months since I last got on here? Oh, how time flies when you’re having fun. Well, I recently found out that I’m pregnant and that has inspired me to get back to it. I plan to post on here as often as possible, including pictures and updates from the doctors.

I had a positive pregnancy test on the 26th of January, per my last menstrual cycle I was 8 weeks along (awesome, right?). We had our first O/B appointment on February 11th and then our first U/S on February 18th. Like I said, we thought we were 8 weeks along, but it turns out we are 6 weeks along! Which means I ovulated pretty late and I was barely preggo when I had the positive test! Of course, that has it’s ups and downs, it means I was off my prescription drugs very early and on a prenatal vitamin, but it also means I’m not so close to being out of the danger zone and into my second trimester.When I went to the first O/B appointment she told us that the risk of miscarriage drops dramatically after you see a heart beat and we did, so that was a huge relief. I hope the next 8-9 months go as smoothly as possible, since Sly and I plan to get married in August, I’ll be huge, but at least we’ll be married before the wee one arrives.

Here’s our first U/S picture.

Sooo, Sly and I are now engaged! Yay!!! And we’ve decided to trying to have a baby. We’re not stressing it with temp test and all that blahblah, but we’re trying. I’ve been off my birth control for almost a month now, so hopefully I’ll be posting in-progress preggo pics soon. And of course, I have a picture of my engagement ring. I do want to be married before I actually have any kids tho, so we’re thinking a wedding next fall-ish.
