8 Weeks!
So... I'm officially 8 weeks along today ;) YEAH!!! Ok, I went to the dr. and had a really good appointment. He was extremely patient and answered all my questions. One of the things that I was worried about was my thyroid. He told me that my latest test that I had done on Friday came back really low on Friday as well. So he referred me to a specialist. I still have to make an appointment with them, so I'll let you know once I go and hear back from them. He did give me a copy of my results to take to that doctor. So we'll see.

Let's see... what else?!?! I had a TB test done today. They do it very different now then they did when I was little. It used to be a three prong shot type thing, now it's just a little need put slightly under the skin and they fill it up with the fluid. You go back 2 days later to "read" your results. Weird I know, but it was painless, and I freak out about needles, so that worked perfectly dandee for me!!

Hmm... I feel really good! I'm still really tired, but that's normal. My stomach feels weird still ;0) heavy-ish... I don't know. I have always had a kinda chubby tummy, it's never been flat or muscular, but it's sorta tight now. I know that my body has been changing, but it's funny how it feels.

Other than that, I don't feel sick at all, just queasy if I don't eat fast enough, which is about 15 minutes after I start to feel hungry. That has been a tad challenging!

When I went to the Dr. today, the nurse asked me "have you felt the baby move yet?" and although I told her no (and I know that it's just a routine question, not that I could feel anything at 8 weeks) I was laying there thinking, how awesome is that going to be when I can answer that question YES!!! I cannot wait!!!

I got a call from a nurse at my Dr. office and she told me that my thyroid test came back and it was "extremely low". So they wanted me to come in that Friday and do another test to check where my levels were at again.

They took 2 more viles of blood and I will find out the results on Tuesday when I go in for my checkup. I'll post and let you know what they say.

First Ultrasound!
6 Weeks Today!

We were watching the ultrasound monitor as the technician moved the wand around and we found a little teeny, tiny baby. Steve was looking so intently on the screen and when the technician showed where the baby was he goes "we're having a DOT!". LOL! I was cracking up. Therefore, I introduce to you, Dot Schweigert. We have nicknamed the baby "DOT". We were able to see the heartbeat as well, that was 114BPM.

5 Weeks Along!
This picture is as close as we are going to get as a "pre-pregnancy" picture of my belly. I am not showing at all, and probably won't for the next couple months. But we can compare back to this picture.

I'll post more pictures as my belly gets bigger!

Postive Test Today!

Okay, so four postive pregnancy tests!!

I think we might be having a little baby schweig ;) I'm so excited and can't wait to find out for sure. We called the Dr. and made an appointment. They confirmed that if we got a positive test, that most likely we are pregnant!! WHOO HOO!!!

I will continue to keep up with of all the events and moments we have during our pregnancy on this blog!! After our little one is born, this will be updated to what he/she is doing and how they are progressing. When they are older, it will be their blog to post about themselves.

More to come soon :)
