Cystic Fibrosis

Apparently, I'm a carrier 😞 praying Jeffrey is not. 

First Trimester

Is so scary!!! 

They say every pregnancy is different. For me, if I never took a pregnancy test or went to the doctor I would never know I was pregnant. Zero morning sickness, no throwing up or any of the quintessential pregnancy symptoms that everyone talks about. 

Pregnancy is counted at the start of your last mental cycle, so you're already considered two weeks pregnant before your egg has even been fertilized. Sorry if this is TMI for any of your baby ears.....anyways, most people find out they are pregnant around four or five weeks. The doctor won't see you until 8-10 weeks so there is a waiting period. 

The rough part is, you only get two ultrasounds throughout your entire pregnancy!!! Yes, ONLY two wth. One at 9 weeks and another at 19. At 9 weeks the baby doesn't even look like a baby just a blob. It's so hard to sit around wondering if everything is progressing normally, seriously. So. Hard. 

We go in for our second appt this Friday and at least we will get to hear the heart beat! As for waiting another three weeks to actually see the baby again/find out the sex.....I'm seriously going to drive myself and my husband insane worrying! 

Fur Babies

These two amazing baby boys are going to be protective big brothers. 

They are just too cute, I mean look at them..... 

Sunday....bump day

I've been wearing a lot of maxi dresses lately. Don't get me wrong my pants still fit but they are definitely getting tighter and the dresses are much more comfortable.

Today the hubs and I went to Ikea and Rubios for lunch. He asked me if I was sticking out my gut lol, I told him, "no, that's the baby you implanted in me". 

11 Weeks

11 weeks pregnant today, baby Martin is the size of a fig! 

Hiking and Pregnancy

So.... Jeffrey and I have friends in town from Flroida, naturally we are courting them around doing all the fun "San Diegan" things we love to do. One of which is hiking. We decided to take them to hike Torrey Pines for two reasons: 1. Right on the beach, beautiful views and 2. It's a pretty low key hike and being pregnant I wasn't sure if be able to complete a "reall" hike.

First of all, I was way off even though Torrey Pines is a pretty low key hike I could barley do it! All the extra blood my body is pumping, combined with this cough I've have going on 4 weeks now really showed me whose boss! Damn dede this pregnancy thing is NO JOKE. 

Secondly, those signs that say "watch our for rattle snakes" don't lie. Mid trail I looked up and slithering right in front of our feet was a 4 foot rattle snake crossing the path. I seriously freaked out and ran away!! .....I'm a slithery little snnnaaaake.....LOL if you haven't seen that you tube you're missing out! 

Anyways, happy Friday Eve everyone. Here's a pic of Jeffrey and I from our hike. 

Moving Day

So, Jeffrey and I have finally spread our wings again after moving back from Florida almost two yeas ago. We can't thank his parents enough for letting us stay with them as long as we did to help us get back up on our feet.

Boy can I tell you how good it feels to have our own space again it's like euphoria lol. However, the dogs are thoroughly freaked out by the move. Leroy totally pee'd on my sandals, poor guy. I'm sure after a few weeks we will all begin to feel settled in. 

So happy.
