Great Saturday - 1st UGA game, Smoked BBQ, Brunswick Stew, Home with the Girls and Markus!

Happy Saturday! Go Dawgs!

I went to my 14.5 week appointment on Wednesday. I heard the heartbeat again. The doctor said it was very strong and in the 140s for those of you who want to guess the gender. My next appointment will be the fun one when we can finally see our sweet Baby again. Still no weight gain, but thank goodness my appetite is back! No more nausea or queeziness, but I'm so tired. Morning, noon, and night. No crazy cravings yet. However, I do enjoy a bowl of cold pickles almost every day after work. I've also started drinking tons of water, but it's gotta have lemon in it. I really thought I was feeling the baby already, but the doctor said it was probably my stomach stretching or gas bubbles. :)

Welcome to our page!

Markus and I want to welcome you to our page! Follow along with us! We'll keep you updated as we're getting ready to make our first addition to our family. We are 3 and 1/2 months pregnant and very excited! We aren't finding out what we're having, so we can't wait for the BIG surprise on February 27, 2010.

Here's how we found out: Markus and I were at the lakehouse for Fathers' Day weekend. Just the two of us. I had a hunch and a few symptoms, so we took a pregnancy test with us. On Sunday morning, Markus said, "Good morning baby, want to take the test?" So we did--first thing that morning. I was too anxious and walked away from the test. Markus kept staring at it. Of course I was thinking, "what if I am?" After about 3 minutes, Markus asked if we were looking for a pink vertical line. Of course I didn't know! I had gotten the test from a girlfriend at work and it didn't include instructions because it was a hospital test, they don't need instructions. Time for GOOGLE. For the next 10 minutes, we were staring at tests on the internet and finally determined we were having a baby!
