Here we go....

      We once again begin our journey to baby "Wehner". To say that I am over the moon is an understatement! Though This time around I'm finding it a little harder to accept the fact that I am indeed "actually" pregnant and that everything is going to be a-ok!

     This past weekend I found myself not feeling "normal". They say a woman just knows when she's pregnant and I totally believe it! I came home Monday from work not feeling good (cramps, upset stomach) and just KNEW I was pregnant. I told Ryan about my intuition and he was very understanding. Off to the store I went... came home.. and there it was ....

   
     Tuesday morning I called my OB... I wanted to get things on the ball and do all that I can to not have a repeat of last time. They ordered labs for TSH, HCG, and Progesterone (they test the progesterone level to make sure that you are building a nice thick wall for that baby to snuggle in ..low progesterone can be a cause for early miscarriage outside of a chromosome error). My thyroid level was nice and low, and I am clearly pregnant .. HCG was 300. I will be getting the results of my 2nd HCG that I had drawn today, tomorrow. As long as its 600+ things will be looking good. Like last time, I don't see the excitement getting to high until I see my lil babes heartbeat! Once we see that it'll get "real" :)

     I feel as if this pregnancy is different. I feel the symptoms are much different and stronger, which I'm taking as a "good" sign. Our fingers are crossed that we will be bringing a happy healthy baby in April! This baby is wanted more than anything.. we can't wait to snuggles our lil human!
