So according to the pregnancy test, my husband and I successfully conceived. Now comes the hard part (for me): staying pregnant. Ever since I found out about a week ago that I was pregnant, I have been obsessing over whether the baby is ok. I have my first dr. appointment on August 8th at which time they will give me an ultrasound to detect the baby’s heartbeat. This was the ultrasound that last time showed that the baby was NOT ok, so needless so say, I am terrified of this happening again.

My sister’s wedding is next weekend, so we are going to wait for sure to tell my family until after she’s had her day in the sun, so to speak. We may tell my husband’s family earlier because they are going through some rough times and maybe they need the good news right now.
