PREGNANT AT LAST!!

Yes, you read that right! Bob and I are pregnant! We took a pregnancy test (actually 3 :) on March 13th and all of them gave us the same result.



We have a little miracle on the way. I know what your thinking, "How did that happen?" The only thing I can tell you is when you let go, you let God! I am shocked, Bob is shocked and we are reveling in the amazing power of the Lord. You know, Bob and I were talking, crying, laughing and praying together when we were just hit with this realization "Boy, doctor's don't know squat when it comes to the Lord." Both fertility specialists that we saw were very clear that our chances of conceiving naturally were slim to none and slim was thinking positive. That the only way we might get pregnant is if modern science stepped in. I love to see miracles! God is so good.

The past month was such an interesting month too. I never would have thought that we would have conceived naturally, let alone last month. We weren't really even thinking about trying or ovulation testing. We had completely set our sights on May and the IUI that we just weren't even thinking about it in February (ooo...Valentines Baby?;) For starters we were in heavy training for the half marathon and then Bob went back to school and I got sick. All of that didn't really make for good family making circumstances. When I realized that I was 10 days late I thought it was just stress and stress, but what do you know....SURPRISE. People are right when they tell you, "You wanna get pregnant? Stop trying!"

I am now 8 weeks pregnant, can you believe it? We went to the doctor on March 18th and got all checked out. I peed in a cup, got an invasive exam and had to donate 6 viles of blood, but I loved every minute! We have our first ultrasound appointment on April 1st and we should be able to see little Longmire's heart beat. How Exciting!

I will tell you that morning sickness is awesome and terrible. I feel nauseous really all day long. What is so hard is that not eating doesn't help and eating doesn't help. Also, what I feel like I can eat changes nearly moment by moment. Everytime I tell Bob I feel nauseous He nearly jumps up and down with excitement. Not going to lie, being sick is an awesome little reminder that I am PREGNANT. I still can't believe it!
