12 Weeks 6 days and counting


My very first post about baby number two!!!!We've known since November and it's been killing me not to yell it from the roof tops. But we wanted to be careful given our past. I also can't believe changing my diet and taking the Metformin worked so quickly! I am amazed. Truly a miracle. Well, we made it to 12 weeks! I feel like I can breathe a little sigh of relief!!! This was my last ultrasound right before Christmas. It looks like a little kidney bean with arms. So far so good. I totally am thinking girl this time around, because she is already caused a little drama. I can't tolerate much sugar or fat. Makes me really sick. However, that has made me eat much healthier, especially at the holidays. And around week 8 we had some bleeding that scared me horribly. Turns out the placenta hadn't attached all the way and there was a small hole. I took it easy from week 8 to 10. At week 10 it was still there, but everything else looked wonderful and the heart beat is very strong. They are thinking it will fix itself by my next appointment on the 20th. I pray that it does. I so want this little one. I feel so blessed that God is allowing us to bring another little soul into this world. And Jack will be a big brother!!!! How wonderful! I can't believe I am going to have two little ones to love and enjoy. I absolutely love being a mother! There isn't a better job in the world!
