So it was about a week ago that E.J. and I found out that we are expecting our second child together. It came as quite a surprise, but we are very exciting for this new little person to become apart of our lives. At first we really couldn't believe it, but after 4 positive pregnancy tests and a positive blood test at the hospital...it was officially confirmed! Mason baby # 2 is on his or her way! Last Thursday we went to the OB clinic at Eglin and filled out all of the necessary paperwork. Turns out the Dr. I saw when I was pregnant with Kamryn is still there, so I am scheduled to be seen with him again. That is a huge relief to me to be seen by someone who knows me and how my body works. They told me that I am currently 4 weeks along and our expected due date is April 14, 2010, but I am thinking that baby #2 will probably make an early appearance, just as Kamryn did.
After we filled out all the paperwork I had to go get 7 tubes of blood taken! I just about fainted. I don't care how many times I will do this, the needle part always makes me really really nervous. Although they had to stick me several times, since my veins kept "collapsing," I was grateful to have that done and get the process started.
We go back September 14, for our first ultrasound. I am so excited! I can't wait to see how this pregnancy will be the same or different from my first child. It is going to be an interesting ride.
I am still trying to work out, running every other day, pregnancy pilates video, and Zumba. Since I will be putting on a bridesmaid dress about 3 weeks after I give birth I need to stay in the best shape possible!
So far I feel great. Just a little tired, but I think that has something to do with chasing around a one year old at the same time.
This blog is to keep all the family and friends updated on baby news since we live so far from family. Pictures and more info to come later!
