Girls Weekend!

A couple weekends ago my husband went out of town for a guys trip, so I invited my sister out here for a girls weekend! We had a lot of fun! First thing Friday morning I got up to take a pregnancy test to see if I could drink for the weekend, it was negative. So, Friday, we went shopping and went out Friday night and had some drinks.

Then on Saturday my sister had a great idea of going to get a massage! It was great! Neither one of us could sleep either night hardly, so we were so tired on Saturday we kind of just bummed around the rest of the day, but it was so nice to just sit and chat and catch up. We talk as much as we can on the phone, but life gets in the way, and sometimes there isn't enough time in the day. Saturday night, we met up with one of my friends for a couple of drinks. Its so sad/funny that both nights I think we were home by 12:30 or 1am. Oh well, I was sooo glad that she came to visit me and we were able to spend the weekend together! It was sad when she left, but hopefully I'll see her again during Thanksgiving.

So, a couple days later is when I realized that I was actually pregnant, I just took the test too early. When I told my sister she didn't believe me because she is the one that looked at the test to tell me it was negative. She also accidentally touched my pee stick lol she went to the bathroom after me, and didn't realize it was sitting on the counter!! OOPS

So...

Today I am 5 weeks pregnant.... I have gone back and forth about putting it on here, but I wanted to get it out, I can't wait two more weeks till I go to the doctor. I found out on Thursday that I was pregnant, I was a little worried getting to today because this was when I had my miscarriage last time. Although this time I have more symptoms. I was able to make an appt to see my doctor at 7 weeks, she told me I could come in anytime after 6 1/2 weeks, so my appt is set for Oct 11. I'm really trying to stay calm and not worry too much, but every little thing I get worried about. I sit at work all day and poke my boobs to make sure they still hurt! My doctor said that was the first thing to go away when you are having a miscarriage, so just want to be sure! As sad as it sounds, I can't wait for morning sickness to kick in so I can be more sure about this one. Other than sore boobs, I'm just tired and hungry all the time, and make frequent trips to the bathroom, and feel like I always have to unbutton my pants, they just feel tight. Since a couple days before I got my positive test, I've had light cramping, but I've heard its normal, and its on and off nothing constant. Hoping the next two weeks fly by!

Doctor Appt & Labor Day

Last week I went to the doctor for my normal yearly appointment and while I was there I brought up the fact that its been a year now that we have started TTC. The doctor pretty much told me that I have to wait a year AFTER my miscarriage before she will do anything! That because I was pregnant, that "we know everything works" that I should be glad I'm not 36, and I'm still young. She also told me if I were to get pregnant I can't come in for any blood work to make sure my numbers are doubling! That I have to wait until I'm 6 1/2 weeks to see if there was a heartbeat. She said that the Betas could be wrong and there is no point in having an ultrasound if there is not a heartbeat yet. So..I was not very happy, I'm very much considering finding another doctor, this is my 3rd doctor at this place, the first one was really nice, but she retired, but the last two are not very sensitive! I may call anyways and ask if I can come in as soon as I'm pregnant, but we'll see.
For Labor Day weekend we went down to Kentucky for a family reunion on my Dads side, it was so much fun! All my Dads sisters and brothers were there besides one and their kids.

This is a picture of myself and both of my nieces.

It was a long drive down, but it was well worth it to see everybody. My one uncle was told a long time ago that he wasn't able to ever have kids. Well, his wife is now 6 months pregnant! I found out she was pregnant a day after I had my miscarriage, we were just a couple weeks apart. I was so excited for them, because my uncle is such a great guy, and he was over the moon excited that they are going to be having a baby, we had a little shower for them while we were there. It was weird though, I almost started crying when they walked in, not because I'm not happy for them, but just because I knew that I would have been just that pregnant, but I held myself together!

Hope everybody had a good long weekend!
