I'm Telling

Last time I waited to share fun news with you all "in case something happened"...and it did happen...and in the end I didn't feel any better about keeping the secret to myself.

So...here goes!

I'm pregnant!

I am 7 weeks along, we got to see the most beautiful little heartbeat on Wednesday, and I'm happy. I'm VERY happy:)

My due date is 11-11-11! I think that is just so awesome;)

It's been an emotional roller coaster since we found out three weeks ago. I had a wonderful counseling session on Wednesday after my appointment (seriously...counseling is uh-mazing...everyone should go) and my counselor just really helped me sort through a lot of the different feelings that I have. At the end of the meeting, she encouraged me to let myself be happy...so I am:)

I have no idea what will happen... all I know is I can't spend every day thinking up solutions to a "what if I miscarry again?" scenario. All I have is today. God has give me that and for that I feel incredibly grateful and blessed.

Thank you to everyone who has emailed or commented on my miscarriage. I really can not believe how much support I got and how much I was able to help others through this little craft blog. It means so much to me;)

  24. Congratulations! I haven't been to visit in a while because I am 10 weeks pregnant. I am due on 11/4/11 and actually based on LMP would be the exact same as you, but the ultrasound confirmed what I suspected, that I was further along than the calendar said, but I have been in maternity clothes since 7 weeks! The doc said the pregnancy hormones cause some womens muscles to relax sooner. This is also my 4th child, so that could have something to do with it. I am praying for a happy, healthy pregnancy for you. I feel you on the smells. My husband has graciously cooked dinner fo us tonight, but my stomach turns every time I walk in the kitchen, I hope I can eat it! Garlic is the worst.

    Congrats!
