Our little blueberry is 7w3d today! With each passing day Tim and I are getting more and more excited about this little nugget. 3 weeks from tomorrow we have our first appointment with Ginny, our midwife. She was our midwife with our last pregnancy as well. I see her on a regular basis because of working at the hospital, but I haven’t seen her since we found out that I was pregnant this time around. I wonder if she knows yet that I’m on her patient roster.
Anyway, I was thinking of calling the Midwifery service and asking them to schedule another ultrasound between now and then… though the more I think about it, the more I think that there really isn’t a point. If something is going to happen between now and then, it’s going to happen and there isn’t much I can do about it one way or the other. So I just have to learn patience and wait the 3 weeks until we hear the heartbeat.
I caved and told my parents early. We had to take my car to my dad’s place the other day because my check engine light came on and I wanted him to read the code and I just couldn’t keep my mouth shut. He OBVIOUSLY was thrilled and my mother yelled from the top of the stairs, “Are we doing this again!?”. I wasn’t really sure how to feel about that… Anyhoo, my dad did his typical, “I knew you were pregnant because of A, B, C…” and got all chatty and wouldn’t stop talking. He then proceeded to call me half an hour later to congratulate me again. He’s so cute.
We had lunch with my aunt and uncle Saturday afternoon and told them as well. They had a really rough week with their neighbor suddenly passing away in a freak snowmobile accident and my aunt really takes that kind of news to heart… so when we told her she was overjoyed. I ended up getting phone calls from both of my cousins (her two kids) the same night. I really love that side of my family.... there is just so much love to go around.
Seeing my mom is still weird. I think it’ll always be weird now. She hugs me like she’s afraid of me. Not like she used to when she was well. It breaks my heart every time. I mostly wish she just wouldn’t touch me anymore. -_-;;
Well, that’s all I’ve got. Hubs just put dinner together for me: cheese, bread, fruit. I was telling the girls last night that this baby has turned me into a vegetarian against my will. Meat disgusts me right now.
I better get ready for work. Meehhhhhh. -_-;;
