13 weeks pregnant!


Well I am new to this blog thing but I suppose it will give me something to do besides sit on facebook.
Titus and I have had a wonderful year and things just keep getting better. We got married Sept 5th 2009 here in Kenosha. Many friends and family came to celebrate! We went on two small honeymoons. After a lot of discussion we realized it made no sense to spend the money to go to a place like mexico considering Titus does not like the sun or the water. We settled on the idea to go to Lake Geneva the weekend after the wedding. We stayed at a beautiful bed and breakfast and we toured the city and took a boat tour of the lake. At the end of October we drove down to St. Louis. We stayed at a resort and casino. We toured the arch and the city and would love to go back soon. It was the perfect getaway.
Titus and I knew we didn't want to wait to long to start our family but we were elated that it happened so fast....We found out we were expecting on Thanksgiving and then had to keep it a secret from our families until Christmas.
I have been feeling pretty good so far. The first 10 weeks were a little rough. I could barely eat and was nauseous all the time. As soon as I hit week 11 everything got better. No more nausea and I don't feel like falling asleep and going into a coma anymore. We went in for our first OB visit at 10 weeks. They couldn't find the heartbeat on the doppler but we did get an ultrasound. The baby was swimming around and we got to hear and see the heart beat. The HR was 182. I have never seen Titus smile so big.
Titus now just started classes to finish out his teaching degree and I stay busy with work and keeping my schedule straight. I have a history or SVT (its a type of tachycardia). I saw my cardiologist this week. I also have an appt in March to see a high risk OB and my electrocardiologist. My next primary OB appt is Feb 2nd! YEAH! I will post pictures when I learn how!
