I'm PREGNANT!!

I am 10 weeks pregnant!  We were trying to wait until 12 weeks to announce, but alas, my belly just will not cooperate!  I am showing already and my morning/all day sickness is HORRENDOUS.  My due date is May 18.

I have to admit, I am not only elated with the news of our new little one, I am terrified as well.  As many of you know, my son Daniel was still born in January of this year.  Most all women have at least some level of anxiety with pregnancy...it's normal.  My anxiety level, at times, is off the charts.  God has given me much peace about this pregnancy...however I am still human and sometimes scared to death.

I will be posting belly pictures soon, for those who are interested.  I would venture to say that many of my posts for the next several months will be about pregnancy, so I hope I don't annoy any of you!  ; )

I am starting to see a little, very small and faint light at the end of the morning sickness tunnel.  Now, I am usually only sick from about 4:00pm til I go to sleep.  I have nausea all day, but not the kind where I am afraid to leave the house, not until late afternoon anyway.  I am hoping my morning sickness will not last much past the first trimester.  PLEASE!?!?!?!!?

I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks to ensure that the pregnancy is only a singleton (as originally with Daniel I was pregnant with twins until about week 9).  The ultrasound showed only one little heartbeat, so that's good.  Not that I wouldn't want twins, but this pregnancy is high risk enough without the addition of another "bundle of joy". 

I am excited for the weeks and months to come and invite you (when and if you want) to join in my joy, fear and pregnancy brain mishaps!  Here goes nothing!
