Update and a Poll!

Week 9

I'm sleepy all the time!

I eat about normal. I'm just tire all day long, which is normal so I hear. The street sign is to warn drivers of children playing and not to run them over with your 1977 Soviet-built Lada, you may dent your Lada.

Not too much going on. Work. Sleep. Eat. Work.

I'll see the doc again on Aprl 17th for another ultrasound.

Poll: When the time comes do we want to know if it's a boy a girl?

My husband votes for keeping it a surprise. I lean towards knowing. Please comment!

Hungo Street Sign - Dime baby



What does that sign mean exactly?
Please in send your ideas.

OK, so now the baby is the size of a dime...a dime with a heartbeat.
Doc says "You're in business", so that's good.
I've been keeping my Hungarian doctor appraised. He's been great and we'll be back there again down the road.

My husband pet my toes during the ultrasound. He's the sweetest. Sometimes. Usually.

Two 'dimes' would've been cool but (trust me) one is plenty good. It's kinda odd being this open with such an early pregnancy, we both understand this, but it's been great sharing this journey. We stay positive and look forward to meeting our new baby, but, we certainly don't take for granted that we're still in the earliest stages and sometimes "things" just happen.

Believe it or not my husband and I don't spend a lot of time talking about the baby. A belly rub here and there - that's about it. In the end we hope and pray, because really, that's all we can do. And that is the beautiful part.

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as it's still a long road.

Tanks for sticking around!

Little Flicker

I saw ONE little heartbeat on Tuesday.
I go back next Tuesday to make sure it is only one.

Still does not seem real.

Waiting....

After three years of TTC, I am waiting to see our little one...

A week from today I will (hopefully) see something in there.
I should be 6 weeks 1 day by then.

Until I have something to report, I will post my hcg numbers...

#1 11dp5dt: 245
#2 13dp5dt: 497
#3 15dp5dt: 1038

Only crazy TTCer's will know what this really means.
All anyone else needs to know is that as long as my numbers double every other day it means that the baby is settling in.

Let the countdown to the first ultrasound begin...

Anyone see my camera?

VESPA FOR SALE

It will be for sale early summer.

This whole baby thing is starting to sink in and I realized that I can't ride around on the Vespa anymore. Do they make car seats for Vespas? Didn't think so. Besides Stig would not go for that EVER.

Sad to see the Vespa go but TOTALLY WORTH IT.

Where the heck is my camera?

I could not wait...

I had to find out early.

SOooooooo, I am pregnant.

4 weeks and 3 days.

According to the week by week calendar online, our baby should look like a salamader.
So, settle in little salamander. It should be a fun ride.

BTW, I was going to post a picture of my test but I have misplaced my camera.
I'll make sure to post it as soon as I find it.

If you were a camera where would you be?

Finally back on track

I have been working all week, coming home and SLEEPING.
Not sure if that is jet-lag or a GOOD sign.

Another week of waiting and we will know for sure if this IVF thing worked.

Today (as soon as it is an acceptable time to call people), I will be catching up with friends. I plan on the Farmers Market, hanging out with BK and her little one and possibly dinner with my two besties.

Hope everyone is doing well and as soon as I know anything I will post.

Hugs and kisses.
