5w4d

I got my beta back today, it was 155, it just about doubled.
I see high risk at 10 weeks, and I get my ultrasound at 10 weeks too.
I will be seeing this doctor until I'm "pretty far along" :)

Good to know

5w3d

Not much of a title. I am 5 weeks and 3 days today. I've been doing so much thinking. I'm so sleepy. I pee every 10 minutes (ha) and I'm horribly dizzy from my prometrium. N and i are watching Dragon Tales. Anyways.. I've been thinking alot. I'm def. going to breastfeed this one. For one year. At least. I didn't get to do it with N but I'm doing it with this one. The Chinese Gender Predictor says it is a boy. Whatever it is, I'll be happy, still. Im too sleepy to blog right now.

Betas, Refrigerators, all of the above.

So I got my beta back for 13dpo- 84!! This one is sticking- totally happy with that. Last night I did have some pain in my side (like the pain you get when running) so I took it easy and it was gone in the morning. I go back to the doctor on Friday, I'll be 5 weeks and 1 day :) Hooray!

And now for the fridge part. We bought a fridge. they will deliver it between 2 and 4.... yeah. I doubt they will fit in in!

An Update of Sorts

So I called my doctor yesterday. He told me to come in. He is referring me to high risk but I will continue to see him until they can see me. I'm on 4 weeks of bedrest, he told me it's mainly to put my mind at ease. He does want me to take it easy though. I'm on prometrium and baby aspirin too. I go back on Monday for a blood re-draw and results from my last bloodwork. My Due Date is also 12/24/09, not N's birthday. Still pretty close though!

Double Birthdays! Think Positive

And I did :) I'm due on N's 2nd birthday, December 27th, 2009. Wow. I'm thrilled, to say the least. But now I'm going to have to double up birthdays for the next 17 years. I was really excited and anticipating going to Gymboree for N's party. If I'd want to do the party at Gymboree, I'd have to rent it out ahead of time.. and although only 1 in 20 babies are born on their due date, I'd have that lucky 1... even if baby was born a few days prior, we would still be in the hospital. So maybe we won't have a big party for her. I really don't know what I should do about it. Some mommies I know that are having/have two kids... have them/are going to have them nicely spaced out. September and December, and July and December. I don't think we're going to have a big party for her... Maybe just a small cake and a few presents. She was pretty overwhelmed at her first birthday party so maybe we'll keep it on the down low.. Maybe everyone will forget about her birthday what with the new baby coming and all.

A Day at the Shedd Aquarium

This was N's first time at the Shedd. We went with her grandparents, great uncle, and aunt. Here are some photos!




















I'm going to go take a nap!

I called 311 today to order a new blue cart (recyling can) and they put it through. Today is Friday, the truck came on Monday and our can is over half full already- I haven't emptied MY recyclables yet- eep!
