15 wks

Sorry it's been awhile since my last post. I'm enjoying this pregnancy and making it to the 2nd trimester. My energy is increasing.. woo hoo, but the headaches are still here.. boo hoo. But that is ok. I've felt little twitches and butterflies. What an amazing feeling. It took my stomach the first time I felt them. I feel more twitches, it says that the twitches are tiny kicks, but it's not that strong. If you aren't laying still you can miss it. I guess I'm real in tune with my body :)

15 wks, I still can't believe it. I've stopped taking the prednisone Saturday. I was nervous about that. I'm only doing the blood thinner injections (through out the pregnancy) baby aspirin and prenatals. That's it! I go to my obgyn on 10/22 to listen to the baby's heart tone. I go to the perinatal on 10/30, hoping this baby won't be stubborn so they can tell us "your having a boy, or your having a girl" I can't wait to hear those words. We invited Nana & Papa (Mom T and Dad T) to the ultrasound. I think it will be an awesome moment for them to share this special time with us. They've been waiting so patiently to become grandparent's so they can spoil them. Faith will have a cousin soon to play with :)

I wrote my testimony for Mag at myivf to post on her website. I was honored to be able to share our journey. Here is the link: http://www.myivfalternative.com/ivf-testimonials
I've had several couples contact me about going overseas, God sure works in mysterious ways. It's a passion of mine to be able to share our journey and the ways God has worked in our life.

More to come....
