~ Baby Update

So I had my first prenatal appointment today With Doc Bratteli. We went over family health history & my pregnancy with Brody. I was really wanting to deliver my second child naturally (I had Brody via C-Section), so we discussed that & to my disappointment, it sounds like it's going to be easier to just schedule a repeat Cesarean. I was anticipating having to do this as I have researched it a little bit, so I was already aware that there was a slim to no chance of this happening. Oh well we will probably both be better off this way, so I have pretty much accepted it! I had 4 or 5 viles of blood taken, and I got to see Baby on the ultrasound again. Our little jellybean is alive and well. I got to see & hear his little ticker beatin' away at 144 beats per minute, so that was a huge relief as I was worried I might have been experiencing a miscarriage earlier this week. I will be seeing Doc Bratteli again in 4 weeks. Last time I was pregnant, I found out after I delivered Brody that she was in fact 5 months pregnant too, and now she has again informed me that she is about 3 months along now with her second...so that is very exciting! I really like Doc Bratteli very much. She is so easy to talk to and understanding. We had quite a bit in common with our first pregnancies, and now that we will be pregnant with eachother again we will be able to connect even more so and sympathize with eachother about having repeat C-Sections as she will be doing so too! We have decided that she will continue to see me for my prenatal appointments until she delivers in February which works out perfectly because I will then have to start seeing Doc Hardin anyway as he will be doing my C-Section again. So I'm confident things will work out and be just fine. I am very excited and can't wait to get out of my first trimester as it is very stressful. 5 more weeks and I won't have to worry as much about miscarriage!!

I had JC take an 8 week picture of me so you all can watch me grown too! Enjoy the Belly Growth...Hopefully that is all that grows this time aye!
