6 Weeks!

Three more days and it will be time for my first doctor's appointment. This week has been so long. I am just so ready to see Dr. Turley and get reassurance that everything is moving along well. I have had some back pain and nausea this week but it is just very hard for me to accept that this pregnancy could be healthy and in just over 8 months we could have a son or daughter. I am just keeping my faith that eventually our prayers will be answered and we will be blessed with a little one. I am sure most women worry some, but with the loss that we have experienced it is so hard for me to imagine that this little miracle could actually happen for us. I want to be excited and make plans for this little one but I don't feel like I can until we see or hear a heartbeat. I think then I will actually have to believe that possibly that our little pumpkin will arrive in October.

I am posting my 6 week picture. I know it is bloating or something but people at work are already starting to ask if we are expecting and my close friend Mary commented that my child will surely be the size of a horse since I am already getting a belly! That kind of makes me smile, surely an increasing waistline is a good sign!

I will be sure to update after my appointment on the 10th!

Love,
Jamie
