Ready or Not...

Here comes an addition to our little family!!

On or around October 31st, 2012 we will become 3 (or 4 with Oakley)!!

6wks: Baby is the grey oval area with the dotted line going thru

6wks: Baby's heartbeat. On the bottom on the pic is the heart rate monitor

With family and close friends having known a week or two it was bound to spread so we decided to just announce, although it's still a little early. I am only 7wks and 4 days and these u/s pics were taken last Tuesday at 6wks 6 days. I was able to see the heart beat flicker on the screen then after some searching we even heard the heart beat!! Doc says everything looks fantastic so far and he'll see me back in a month for another photo op.
I've definitely been feeling the symptoms for a good few wks now; Baby didn't waste any time announcing his/her presence to me! It's been hard finding things to eat because Baby can't seem to make up his/her mind on what's good. One minute I like something then halfway through eating it, it's no longer good. Going about my day has been inconsistent to say the least; one minute I feel fine, the next a wave a nausea hits and I need to eat. So I keep snacks handy all day long at work. I'm starting to fine tune my habits to reduce my nausea but I still don't feel like I have much control! Thankfully Dellas has been very understanding and helpful, even if it is with his cruel sense of humor ;-) like calling me "Nom Nom" because I eat so much.

But no need to continue boring you with details on nausea. We're VERY excited to be new parents and our families are ecstatic as well. We just hope and pray that everything continues to go well from hereon out and that we get to meet a happy and health Baby Clark this fall!
