We are Expecting!

Ok! So I can not even describe how good it feels to get it out in the open! I was so excited I just could not wait anymore to share the exciting news! Our baby is due to arrive May 23-25 of 2012! Crazy thing is, is May 23 is my mommas birthday so they may just share the same day:)

I wanted to get the chance to describe to everyone how the process worked.. and no I do not mean the typical way where the cup watered the seed;p I was not able to get pregnant much on my own so it required a lot of time and patience. I had to get on a pill called Chlomid which helped my eggs to mature since mine never did that on their own AKA ovulation. Once the doctor "okayed" the eggs I then had to insert HCG which is a natural pregnancy hormone, but we just gave my body a boost. The injection had to go right into my stomach, but the difficult part about this was that I had to mix the HCG in a little bottle and insert it myself at home, and I had no idea how to do that! But long story short, I overcame it. Then the exciting news came 2 weeks later! I then had to start taking progesterone (which is another natural hormone we produce, my body just needed an extra boost) for 2 months every night before I went to bed and that was just a messy situation.. literally! I am now 13 weeks and everything is going wonderfully besides the morning sickness I have had for the last 2 months!
Both of our families are so excited and can not wait to be grandparents, great grandparents, aunts and uncles!

OH and I can't forget to tell you how I told the daddy to be! So just a short explanation first of why I did it this way.. So when ever I shower we do this little thing where I put a lot of soap on my stomach and then will just write a little note that usually says "I love you" and then I will call Chad in to have him see (sorry if this is to much info lol). So anyways I knew he was coming home from work so I hopped in the shower lathered up my stomach with soap and had "I'm prego" written across so that when he came home to give me a kiss while I was in the shower he looked down and saw what I had written and he was so excited! He was like "Love are you joking?" and kept saying "no no there is no way" haha so it was very cute:)







So that is the wonderful news in a nutshell! We will be having plenty more to share very soon!!!
