Pregnancies are the biggest things to happen in most women's lives, so they need to be documented right? The purpose of this blog is to keep track of my emotions, struggles, and anything else during my pregnancy of my first child. This blog starts before the pregnancy is confirmed and will end, well, I'm not so sure about that. But anyways, I plan to document everything I can.


Now that Gracee is born, I intend to document anything and everything I feel I need to discuss. So don't continue on if poopie diapers make you cringe because I'm sure a good many will be discussed!



Thanks for reading my utterly disastrous blog. Hopefully I'll get better about writing often, but don't count on it.

As I sit here eating pineapple chunks with a glass of grape juice, trying to decide whether or not to do some much needed homework, I remember I haven't posted lately, thus giving me an means to push my homework back a little further. Plus, today has been a very eventful day; it was my first prenatal visit. I know my family members want to know how it went, so I'll just post here because most of them religiously follow my blog---hail to the true followers.

My honey decided to take the day off to go with me to Valdosta, even though he had to drop me off at school twice and pick me up twice. By the way, he got lost in between VSU and Lowes, which I must say is a pretty difficult feat. I even drew a map with street names, but I forgot he was a man. Men take no advice from women, especially directions. But anywho, kudos to my husband and his great directional skills.

After I got out of class, we headed over to Southern OB-GYN, with my stomach churning inside. Overall, the experience wasn't bad, just slightly uncomfortable. If anyone has had a pap, the prenatal check is the exact same. They also had to draw my blood, which I'm not very good at at all. I got a little queasy, but it turned out okay.

Positives: LOVE my midwife, Teresa Johnson. She seemed very thorough and did not treat me like one of the 300 patients she sees, even though I know I am. Most of the staff were pretty nice, as well as the financial adviser.

Negatives: My honey couldn't come back until they put me into my own room, which took about an hour. The lady who took my blood was sort of rude, but hey, if I had to look at and draw blood all day, I'd be a little cranky too. They only do 4 ultrasounds the entire time you're pregnant.:(

They didn't do an ultrasound today, but my appointment for my glucose test (ewwww) and my first ultra sound will be in three weeks. Let's home I'm not having twins.

9 more weeks until we know what the baby is!  The million-dollar question is: what do you want it to be? I want a boy for the sake of my husband, but either would be perfectly fine by me. I know everyone says it, but as long as it's healthy, I don't care what it is.

Until next time, peace and love:)
