Crazy Fast

Written March 29, 2014

All of the blood results have been great so far.  I had spotting for about a week and that's gone now too - which I probably should not have mentioned because now it will come back.  Our two ultra sounds we have had so far show the baby growing right on track (and in the right spot).  The tech even saw the heartbeat yesterday (the baby is too small right now for her to get a read to be able to let us hear it).

We go back in two weeks for our first "official" OB appointment and ultra sound where we should see a much bigger baby and a more official due date.

I am so so relieved. 

It's crazy how much less time I have to think about everything this time around.  With Zoe, I was CONSTANTLY worried even though we had weekly appointments.  This time I'm so busy thinking about work and spending as much quality time with Zoe before she goes to bed and then I'm exhausted so I go to bed around 9 that I just have no time to worry (which is nice for this worrier).

But I am excited.  So so so excited.  We are so blessed to get to experience this all over again.  I can't wait to start planning Zoe's new room.  Aaron (and supposably Zoe wants to know too) is winning out this time around and we are finding out the gender, so we'll do a few minor changes to the nursery just so this baby gets his/her own things.  And hopefully the only really new things we'll have to buy are strollers that can now fit two little ones.  Although those babies are not cheap.  I thought our single stroller was a lot!
