J & K + 3

Yep, that's right! I am once again, expecting a baby! This will be my 5th pregnancy! It sounds crazy to say that!! I am still not in belief 100% yet. I have to go for a second round of blood work today to make sure this is a viable pregnancy. I had a little bit of bleeding last week. It was nothing like the miscarriage I had very early on. So, my hopes are that everything is still good, and our tiny baby is growing strong! I should know by tomorrow. I have not told many people, and since no one really reads this, not many more will find out here, I am just dying to tell someone!

Our new baby should be due May 4, 2010 (but we all know I'll have him/her sliced and diced out a week early, making it around April 28, 2010!)

We are hoping and praying for a baby GIRL, so join us in asking the Lord for barbies and pigtails! Although, I would love a baby boy just the same.

I have started my shots in the stomach again. When I was pregnant with Joshua, we didn't find out about the blood clotting problem until I was 16 weeks pregnant. This means I have a longer journey of shooting up and bruising ahead of me! I counted the other day that I am taking 8 pills and 1 shot per day- that's a lot of medicine!

My first real OB appointment is in 3 weeks, which will be at 8 weeks. I've already seen my doctor once to check out the bleeding issue, but this will be my first ultrasound. My stomach is already swollen like I'm about to birth octuplets. I don't know why, but it isn't normal. The OB said I could have had a cyst burst last week when my stomach almost exploded!

So, there's my big news! No matter what happens with this baby, I know God has a plan and it is according to his timing, not mine.
