YOH - these last few weeks have been rather hectic, stressful and full of excitement!! A new life is forming inside me and it blows my mind!! MIKE AND I ARE HAVING A BABY!!!
We found out on the 7th August and its been a whirlwind since, on the same day we took the midstream pregnancy test I went for a blood test just to make sure.... and it came out positive straight away!!
MAN are we excited - its been a really long journey for us actually - we starting trying for a baby 15month ago and finally out little baby bean is here! You should see Mike, he has this twinkle in his eye and he just beams all the time!!!
We went for our first scan / check up on Wednesday and everything is totally fine! Look at out little bean, isn't it the most beautiful blob you have ever seen?? The top blob is the sack that gives our bean its food and the bottom blob is little bean him / herself!! We saw the heart pulsating - amazing!!!
We are blown away about this life growing inside of me - we are amazed about how God has created us and created me to carry a child!! Its overwhelming at times actually!!!
We are taking weekly pictures to see how little bean grows and makes my tummy bigger!!
Hee hee, we didnt want mike to feel left out :)
We are 7 weeks already and our due date is about 11 April - so exciting!!!!!!
The day we found out we had a little bean on board I went out and got a journal to keep as a baby journal - I want to document every step of the way for our baby one day! The one way I am doing this is writing letters to our baby instead of just writing how I am feeling etc... I have added letters to mike as well and eventually i would love to make this into a photo book!
I am also keeping all receipts, photos, scrips etc for anything and everything baby related!
Den and Lyndal gave us a little gift when they found out we were pregs - these awesome car stickers.... hope you can see the little lady sticker is pregnant! Such a precious gift!!
We added out pups so for now its out whole family!!!
We have spent some time browsing baby shops and fell in love with this pram / car seat / carry cot set! - we'll save up for a few months then hopefully by these stylish new wheels for our baby bean!!
WOW - these last few weeks have been awesome, scary, panicked, humbling and so exciting!! I have to say though they have NOT been easy - I have really been battling with morning sickness and I am just praying that after 12 weeks they morning sickness will fade away and I'll be able to enjoy my baby bean properly!! I think God made us wait a little bit for our bean just to give me time to adjust to the idea of my body changing, our life changing, the reality of a baby and the blessing of having a little bean growing inside of me!! WHAT a privilege to have our baby growing inside of me!!
It has also made me realize just how lucky i am to have Mike in my life, he has been FANTASTIC with me and my morning sickness - I have never felt more lucky to have Mike as my husband!! This has definitely brought us closer together (which i didn't think was possible) and has made us fall even deeper in love!! Sometimes I just have to stop and take a breath....
