The Begining

Not all of you may know, but Chris and I are expecting our first child on April 13,2010. We found out at the end of July when we were 4 weeks along, but due to the circumstances of the previous year, we decided to wait to tell people until we heard the heartbeat. Talk about a hard secret to keep! The first couple of months were pretty hard with morning sickness. It usually hit right away when I woke up, and after every time I ate.

We had our first appointment on September 21, where we were able to hear a heartbeat of 163 bpm. Needless to say we were very relieved and excited after this appointment.

We started our second trimester on October 12, and I have definitely felt better since. We had a second appointment at 15 weeks on Monday October 19. Again we heard the heartbeat right away and it was 150 bpm.

After two successfully appointments Chris and I are finally starting to relax and enjoy our pregnancy. We even went to look at baby furniture last weekend, and were given a reality check when the staff informed us that if we wanted to order furniture through them, it would take about 3 months to get, considering we are almost 16 weeks, we probably need to order this soon! So much for casually looking! We decided we should start researching what products to buy and possibly start a registry soon!

Other than the baby news, not a whole lot is new in our lives. We take each day as it comes and are enjoying the excitement of what the future holds!
