What I miss: Feeding my Mt. Dew addiction. I’ve only been drinking a can a day and I’m trying to increase my water intake.
What I am looking forward to: The first doctor’s appointment when we hear the heartbeat, the first ultrasound, feeling the baby move, finding out the sex, you know…the typical pregnancy stuff.
Weekly Wisdom: Women are pretty in touch with their body, so we know when we are pregnant. My husband wanted to wait a week after my missed period to take a pregnancy test. He didn’t want to waste money on a pregnancy test that might give a negative result. I took the test the morning my period was supposed to start and it said I was pregnant. Yes, it was probably a very low amount of Hcg that was detected, but we got a positive result. And we were fortunate enough to be able to tell our parents in person.
Milestones: Finding out we are pregnant and sharing the news with family and friends.
