Let the morning sickness begin. Everything I smell makes me want to vomit, I have to eat every 2 hours or I get nauseous, and I'm exhausted. We're visiting our families for the holiday's and I've spent at least half my time here asleep (well, it didn't help that I also caught a nasty cold this week). So basically, I feel like crap. But morning sickness is a sign of a healthy baby, so I guess I can at least feel good about that. Blech.

Today was my first doctor's appointment. Everything looks good, the baby is measuring right where he's supposed to and we saw a nice strong heartbeat. Though I'm still having trouble getting excited about this pregnancy, I think once I pass the 10 week mark I may feel better about everything, at least I hope so. I would hate for my entire pregnancy to be robed of joy because of how things ended up last time. But don't get me wrong, I don't mean to sound like such a downer, I'm just afraid to get too excited I guess. Here's our baby's first picture:

Well, my period still hasn't showed up and although I haven't taken another HPT, I don't think I need the reassurance. We really are pregnant again! I've got my first doctor's appointment scheduled for next week, and hopefully all will appear well. I made sure to get an appointment before we leave for Lancaster to visit for Christmas. I have a feeling we won't be able to keep it a secret as long as we may like during all the family visiting, and I'd like to have a good doctor's appointment under our belt before we start spreading the news. Finger's crossed!
