10 weeks.....why do you hate me?
So last week was my 10 week mark and it did not like me at all. Okay maybe it wasn't that bad but I did get sick about 4 times. Luckily it happens and then it's over and I feel much better. I think it was mostly me to blame because I would eat different things right after another and my stomach was just like, "Look here lady, stop combining acidic/sweet/dairy so soon after eachother." I am now 11 weeks and this week has been kind to me....so far. Lets hope it stays that way! We had our 11 week appt. a couple days ago and we got to see the baby again and hear the heartbeat. The first time we heard the heartbeat was at 7 weeks and I cried like a big baby. My Husband and Mother were they to share in the happiness with me though so I was grateful for that.
My Husband has been so awesome. He is constantly making sure I'm okay, comfortable, and have everything I want/need. Although sometimes I feel invisible because he likes to have more conversations with my belly than with me! He is so cute, he also signed up for thebump.com. So every Sunday he gets an email that says, "Jon, you are __ weeks pregnant!" I got a real kick out of that one! He is a water nazi though! He makes sure I have PLENTY of water in me everyday and not to much sugary drinks. He also asks me everyday if I took my prenatal which could be annoying to some women but very helpful to me!
Overall I haven't had to many pregnancy affects that most people talk about. I don't crave odd combinations....sure a pickle tastes good but I don't NEED them. Morning sickness hasn't cramped my style. The only thing I can say is that my boobs are really sore, I'm worn down by the end of the day and I've been a bit emotional. All of my emotional moments revolve around one thing, my Father. Just the fact he isn't here at this special time in my life makes me sad and I miss him. I think this is a reasonable reason to be upset every now and then. Other than that though, I'm just excited and enjoying this time.
This is my 11 week baby picture! I also scheduled my appt. to find out the sex of our baby, it is scheduled for Halloween......EPIC, right!!!!

No way.......REALLY?!
We have a Baby Jaeger expected to arrive 03/18/2012!!! YAY!!!
We have been trying to conceive for about 4.5 years and it is a long/horrible ride that I wish for no one. There were lots of hugs from my Husband, tears, and late night talks. The biggest problem we had is that we couldn't figure out when I ovulate because I can go months and months without a period. I had a few tests done, they looked at my hormone levels and did invasive tests on my lady parts and everything came back normal. So after 4 years we decided to get those ovulation kits. We started using them in January of this year and I wasn't getting ANY little smileys to say that I was ovulating. So we decided that June would be our last month of using the Clearblue ovulation kit and if still no smiley then we would change the next month to a different brand but on June 24th we got the smiley indicating that I was ovulating or would be sometime in the next 48hrs.
We'll just say for the next 48 hours we had fun. All I could think for the next couple weeks was what if the test was a fluke maybe it misread itself. We waited until July 15th to test and we got a positive (faint but there) but I had a false positive about 3.5 years ago so I didn't want to get too excited so I rushed to Kaiser to get a blood test done and at 9:30 pm I received a notification to my phone saying I had an email from Kaiser and my lab testing was ready for viewing. I logged in to check it and it said POSITIVE, I handed the phone to Jaeger and he freaked out and started yelling with excitement!
.......and now here I am eating watermelon at 5 in the morning and writing my first baby blog post!
