10 Weeks!

I have made it to 10 weeks! I still have trouble believing that I am actually pregnant, except for the fact that my tummy is starting to expand a bit. I have an ultrasound this Tuesday too see our little peanut! I can't wait to see how much he/she has grown in the last three weeks. I am getting very anxious to find out what we are having. I would love to start buying some little things, but everything I want I would want to know what we are having.
I have been feeling great the last few days. I am hoping that sticks around. I have been having issues with my allergies. I went to the pharmacy yesterday and asked the pharmacist what he thinks would be okay for me to take, and he said nothing. The only thing he would recommend is saline nasal spray. I tried it and it works pretty good. The other issue I have been having is getting annoyed very easily. I seem to have lost my filter when I do get to my breaking point. I am trying my hardest to work on that, but hopefully that goes away with the second trimester.
Here is an updated belly picture. I have attached my six week and ten week so you can see the difference.

First OB appointment!

I had my very first OB appointment today! I feel like that was such a huge accomplishment. I am now 9 weeks and 4 days, I have been feeling worse than I have in the previous weeks. I don't feel nausous, just yucky and extreemly tired. I can't seem to sleep too well anymore. I wish I could have one night where I could sleep the WHOLE night with out having to wake up and pee or wake up at all.
So, on to the Dr. appointment. I got to the office filled out all the paper work and waited. The nurse called me back and me pee in a cup, asked a billion questions, took my temp and my blood pressure. My blood pressure was high,but I think it was just because of nerves, but they will keep an eye on it since I have had issues with it in the past. The Dr. then came in and did a pap and pelvic exam. She said she could feel my uterus getting big and I am definetly pregnant! She told me they don't normally do ultrasounds until 16 weeks, but because I have been through so much to get pregnant she will let me come back in a week or two for an ultrasound and for a follow up with her after. So, I am extreemly exctied about that. I wanted at least one more ultrasound before the gender scan, so I am happy with that. I then had my blood drawn. The nurse took 8 vials of blood and in turned left me with a big bump and a black and blue arm. So, now I am just waiting for the u/s tech to call so I can set up my appointment.
Oh and before I forget I have not gained any weight I am the same as I was two weeks ago, so still down 3lbs.

I have graduated!!!

Well that's right, I have graduated from my Fertility Doctor onto an OB! We just had our last ultrasound at the fertility doctor's office today. The baby measured a day ahead at 7w5d, and little peanuts heart rate was 148bpm. I cannot believe how much bigger the baby is this week than it was last week. It's really unbelievable, I guess they really do grown fast. The nurse says everything is measuring and looking perfect.
The nurses all came up to me after the ultrasound to congratulate me and tell me how happy they were after such a long journey we have been on. They made me promise to bring the baby in once it is born and to send pictures. I started crying when they were hugging me it was a wonderful moment. I have been to that office so many times for ultrasouds, IUI's, bloodwork, and other tests, I can't believe I am done. It was such a happy moment. Oh and I also lost 2 more pounds so far I am down a total of 3 pounds since I got pregnat and 10 pounds since I started the metformin. So I figure that is 10 free pounds I get. haha
I have made my first OB appointment for the 24th. I can't wait! I am really hoping we get another ultrasound. So cross your fingers and toes.
Here are a couple of the pictures we got from today.

7 weeks today :)

Well we made it another week! I feel so blessed to be caring this little angle. After being able to hear it's heart beating away it made it feel so much more real. I can't imagine what it will feel like when I feel it's first kicks. This last week was overall a pretty good one. I was feeling pretty good, until the day after the ultrasound. Friday I felt so bad I just wanted to leave work and come home. I was so tired and just didn't feel good. I could hardly eat anything because my stomach was so upset. Once I got home I went to bed and woke up at 5:30 on Saturday. Saturday was not any better I felt like I had a hangover almost. I was so tired and had an upset stomach. But today I feel great! It might have to do with the 11 hours of sleep I got and I didn't have to get up and pee until 5:45! What an accomplishment for a pregnant lady! I am getting very excited for our next ultrasound on Thursday, I wish I could get one every week. After this ultrasound I will be officially graduating to a real OB who I will be seeing the rest of the pregnancy!

Here is my belly shot from this week and last week to compare. The top one is this week and the bottom was last week. I think they look the same no growing yet. Oh and I lost a whole pound! I guess thats one more I can gain later on. haha

Houston We Have A Heartbeat!!!!!!!!!!

Today we are 6weeks and 4days pregnant. We had our first ultrasound to see our little peanut. I slept horrible last night because I was so excited, scared, anxious, nervous, happy, and so many other emotions in anticipation to the ultrasound this morning. Jake had a hard time sleeping as well. Which surprises me I never thought he was going to be so excited or at least show his excitement. He never really shows too much emotion but since I found out we were pregnant he has been awesome! So we get to the Dr. and we were both shaking while we waited in the waiting room. Then they called us back.
The nurse came in and got started. She said we should hear the heartbeat and she didn't lie. We started the ultrasound and she instantly found the little bean. Apparently it likes to hide in the corner of its sac so we didn't get the best pictures but that was fine. Maybe it was trying to sleep all curled up in the corner haha. The nurse then turned on the sound and then I heard the most wonderful noise I think I can ever hear... The heartbeat :) It was amazing both Jake and I started to cry. We have waited so long for this moment and its finally here. Everything measured perfect and the baby's heart was beating at a nice 132bpm.
We get to go back again next thrusday for another ultrasound! I am so excited. Then we will be released to our OB who we will be seeing the rest of our pregnancy.
Here are a couple of pictures we got today of little baby
