Doctor appointment today

So I went to the doc today to see how baby was doing Blood work is good HCG good but I still was worried so I asked the mid wife if we could hear or see the baby. I thought it was going to be pulling teeth asking but she was like sure. Thant easy just a sure lol. So we did and external ultrasound and there was the baby heart beating and that baby looked just like the pictures. Im so happy that the baby is doing well the first baby i lost had a heartbeat then all of a sudden no more heartbeat right around this time. So when we seen the baby it was such a relief that little flicker on the screen witch is much bigger then before brought hope that my baby is here to stay!

The Coupon Diva!

Watch this I just seen her on The Ellen Show and man am I going to start coupon clipping!

8 Weeks Today

So im 8 weeks pregnant today and feeling ok. I have had some morning sickness but not super bad. I have gained my energy back but I do get tiered fast. Crazy thing I just read is my uterus has went from a size of a fist to the size of a grapefruit. Baby is the size of a raspberry.  The baby is growing like crazy putting on about a millimeter every day and continuing to straighten out in the trunk. Baby is moving those little arms, legs and (now only slightly) webbed fingers and toes like crazy. His wrists, elbows, and ankles are visible on an ultrasound now (with some help from your eagle-eyed technician, of course) and this week your baby may even be able to start flexing them! Your baby's delicate facial features are becoming more refined now, with his ears, upper lip, and the teeny tip of his nose all clearly visible. His eyelids will also take shape for the first time this week (the eyes, which now have pigment in them, will appear open until the lids have finished growing in a few weeks' time). Finally, your baby's key internal organs continue to develop, most notably his heart, which grows stronger by the day. My next appointment is Friday and cant wait to see what they say but doesnt look like ill be getting a ultrasound but we will see.

Boppy Total Body Pillow Review

I got the Boppy total body pillow and I have to say its grate im only 7 weeks but my back and neck was killing me. The first night I sleep with it I felt that it was always in the way but the 2nd night I sleep like a baby and woke up in the same position I feel asleep in. I think this pillow is a good buy especially if your back, neck, or anything else hurts. It also helped from my boobs hurting I think because they were not laying on top of each other but they have not hurt when I sleep since I got my pillow. The pillow is super soft and fluffy also keeps me warm it contains my heat that my body lets out so when its cold its grate! If you are a cuddlier you will love it you can hug it and if you like pillows between your legs when you sleep it doesn't move it sits perfectly and wont move. Now the pillow is $50 at some places the cheapest I found it is at Target for $48 But its worth it when im bigger I know it will keep me feeling grate in the morning.

Info:
The Total Body Pillow provides total body support before, during and after pregnancy. The unique design follows the body line to offer support and realignment for neck, belly, back and hips. The soft Pima Cotton slipcover makes washing easy.

Im 6 weeks 2 days today

So lets start the fun stuff I have so much stuff planned for my new blog :D

To catch you up on this pregnancy I tested at 3 weeks not knowing I was going to see a positive ok ok  not just one but 4 of them lol. I woke up to go to work on a sat morning went to the bathroom and let my fur babys out. As I started getting ready I thought I should take a test just to see my period was going to start soon anyways. And there it was a pink line I ran to wake up Eli to tell him the news. Later on I took another test positive YAY!!! Told my mom and she didnt believe me and told me to take another one so by the end of 3 days I had 4 tests. Were very excited to be pregnant again but last week is when the scares started I have been spotting for the last week now it is on and off it went from brown now its pink.We rushed to the ER right away but all good news the ultrasound showed a baby 4 weeks 6 days and baby came from my right overly the lady said
4weeks 6days
They said the spotting is from implantation bleeding. After a couple of days I decided to make a  call to my doctor to be seen right away so he can make sure everything is going well. Had yet another ultrasound but baby shows at 5 weeks 2 days I was suppose to be 5 weeks 6 days.
5weeks 6days
But good news is ultrasound lady found the heartbeat that measures 106 beats per min. I didnt hear much but she showed us the heartbeat waves so we were very happy. HCG levels were good and I go back to the doctor on tuesday to have my  orientation for some reason I have a feeling ill get another ultrasound but we will see.
