No more GYN, YEAY!!

I don't have to go to the horrible dr anymore, yeay!! I had my last appointment at GYN yesterday. It was good only because I got to hear my little one's heartbeat again. Everytime I hear it I am just amazed that there really is something living in there. I'm not sure whether I can feel it or not, so when I get evidence of it's existence it is reassuring. He said everything looks fine, my uterus is growing =) Just one idea of how much of a jerk the doctor was. I was concerned that I have still been losing some weight and therefor have not gained any weight. Yeay I'm a big girl, but I'm pregnant. Well I asked him about it, and he acted like I was an idiot. He said "I'd be glad if you didn't gain any weight your entire pregnancy." Oh, ok. Which whatever, I hope I don't but he was just a jerk about it. Anyway, I am just SO glad to be done with him and that office. I get to see the same dr. as Patty now. She likes her a lot and I'm pretty excited about being excited about my doctor appointments. On another note, I was talking about how I want to have a natural birth. No epidural, up walking around, using different positions, etc. Everyone at work basically laughed at me and said no way, everyone has an epidural. I'm not saying I won't have an epidural I'm just saying I would prefer not to.
On a whole nother note, Chad and I are going to North Carolina in T-minus 7 weeks. I'm extremely excited about this. Extremely.
Also, in T-minus 4 weeks and 4 days I am co-hosting a bridal shower for my good friend Angie. Which, I'm also excited about. I mean who's kidding who, not AS excited about vacation, but still excited. We will be eating good that day. =)

My life right now...

My life right now consists of work...

My wonderful husband Chad...

Thoughts of my child growing inside me...

And thinking I feel bigger than I look!

Pregnancy is a strange thing. I'm waiting impatiently till for the time when I will feel the little one squirming inside of me. I keep thinking I feel it, but I just can't tell. In the baby book it has a section that I can write when I first felt the baby move...I feel like I won't be able to know for sure, and that makes me sad. My body has been taken over by an unusual thing. There are lots of changes already happening. There are many more to come over the next 23 weeks. Chad has been SO great through this so far. I really love him alot. We were talking the other day about how our love has changed over the last 5 years. I knew it would, a wise woman told me so. We are really looking forward to parenthood together. We were riding in the car the other day and I was talking about vacation and saying I can't wait to go! He replied with...I can't wait to hold my baby. To get to actually hold him/her in my arms. To see their tiny face and know that they are a part of me. Well, I of course burst into tears. It was the sweetest thing he possibly has ever said. Needless to say we are both very excited about the future.
