I'm assuming by now that word has traveled down the family pipelines and reached everyone...
John and I are having a baby!
Today I had my first sonogram and I just wanted to share pics with the family. Our baby was moving around like a mexican jumping bean for the first minute, clapping its hands and kicking its feet... But then it got tired and turned its back on us...not gonna be a performer I guess! :-)
Sonogram showed the baby's due date one day off of my guess-timate. We are due April 9th but because I have diabetes they are actually thinking we may have to induce a little earlier than that.
I am finally getting past this whole morning sickness thing and have actually had some energy to start working out again, but admittably I'm not pushing myself as hard. I have started insulin and haven't had any problems with that so far, not looking forward to the 8 shots a day they say are coming. Small price to pay though. Dr. said as well as my diabetes has been controlled over the past year I am staying even with "normal" mom's and currently have no additional risk factors associated with a diabetic pregnancy. Yay!!!
So all in all everything is going really well and right on track. We are excited! The past few weeks we've been so busy with dr's appointments and all the new regimen's with my medication and dietary changes we are just beginning to digest the fact that we need to reorganize the apartment and shuffle our finances and train the pets... I certainly can't have my dog barking at people whenever they come near our door, I'll be so mad if he wakes our sleeping baby!
Fun stuff to look forward to!!
