Let me back track for a little bit! Monday the 18 we found out that I am pregnant. This day had to be one of the greatest. However, we decided not to tell our parents-and that is very hard for me! Following a week on air, we got a phone call on Friday that the doctors think my mom has liver cancer. This is the same cancer that took my aunt and uncles life. So needless to say it was a very upsetting weekend. My mom and I are so very close that I can not even imagine my life without her! So she kept asking if we had news of a grandbaby-she has to see a grandbaby...it was enough to make a women go crazy!! But I held my guns and didn't mention a word.
This week she has gone for several tests to see where the cancer is coming from. After her first appt- she has a much better outlook on life. We are still in limbo about what is going on, but she seems to be stronger and ready to fight! So that makes me feel better. It would be wonderful if they say it is something that they can take care of! But we have to wait and see.
As for me...I had my first doctors visit on Weds. I met with the nurse, so she can get all my stats etc. She was so very nice- I didn't want to leave the office =) And she gave me the best news-I could go for my first sono!!!!
This morning, Phil and I headed to get the ultrasound done. I am a little disappointed however. I don't know what I was expecting...but they could not see anything without doing an internal ultrasound. We were able to see the yolk sac, but that is about it. They said if we came in a day or two we would have been able to see the heartbeat. My luck I guess! It still was very exciting-but I think I am still in shock. I can't believe that I'm pregnant and everything looks like it should look. I'm 5 weeks along. I am so tired that I'm in bed by 7:30. After seeing how big it was today, I had to laugh...something that small makes me so tired! My EDD is still November 23- so we are having a "butterball turkey" of our own!! I have asked to be moved over to the pregnancy diaries-so I hope I have many that follow me over there!
Amy, I have my fingers crossed for you- you only have a small time left!!! YYIIPPPEEE-hang in there!
