My New Best Friend

Thursday, February 05, 2009, 10:52 PM
Posted in: Family, Illustrations, Pregnant Again

I have a new favorite place in the house. It’s on the couch all cuddled up under a blanket trying not to throw up. The couch is my new best friend. I’ve barely been on the computer, I’m feeling lethargic, and missing my blogs. But I don’t really mind at all and some of you who saw my Flickr stream already know why. This is why:

I’m pregnant!! I’ve been feeling vomitty for exactly a week now. So we went and got a pregnancy test done and got the results back a couple of days ago. We didn’t know earlier because my cycle has been so irregular. I didn’t even know I was late. With Isabelle we knew very early on. And when I was this far along with her, we already had our first ultrasound done. This time we haven’t even seen the prenatal clerk yet and won’t for another 2 weeks.

So yeah!! PREGNANT!! The due date is September 12th, Isabelle’s birthday. We are very happy! I was worried we would never get pregnant again. Just a couple of weeks ago I was crying on the phone with Alan saying how unfair it was, how I wanted to be pregnant, and how everyone else was. And at the time I WAS pregnant and didn’t even know it. Maybe the hormonal crying should have been a clue. :)

Ok back to cuddle my new best friend and hope to write again when me and the couch aren’t so close.

    Hi! I don’t comment much but I enjoy reading about your Isabelle (I have an Isabel myself :) ) and your sewing.

    When I walk my two little ones to preschool in the morning I always think about a post you wrote a few weeks ago about holding Isabelle and her cousin in each hand and how it made you want another baby.
    And every morning I wonder if you were perhaps trying for one.

    Now I know! Congratulations! (Although I already said that on Flickr)

    Thanks to my formerly irregular cycle, I didn’t know I was pregnant with Annalie till I was 16 weeks along! So I know that feeling. But it makes your pregnancy much shorter. :-)

    Take care of yourself!

    OMG! Whoopee!!! Let’s get you some preggy pops to settle that tummy. Have you tried them? I know where to get some and can have them life flighted to your doorstep ASAP. Just say the word!

    Amazing how life surprises you, no?

    I can’t believe the due date is the same as Izzy’s birthdate. Lordy.

    As soon as you feel up to it, give us the dirt on Izzy’s reaction. Can’t wait to here the gender…hope you will tell us!! I have some lovely bibs that a special friend made for us that I could send your way (wink wink)…they held up well.

    Congratulations! I had a feeling that was the reason for your absence. It’s great the due date is Isabelle’s birthday! Olivia and Julianne are also about 4 years apart so you are looking at some fun times coming! Please take care and look forward to hearing some more new good news.

    p.s. I keep telling my husband that I met my bizarro twin on the internet. :) We have to meet someday when you are feeling better.

    Oh Kuky! I am so happy for you! I didn’t even have to read it after I saw the first frame — on the one hand, I am sorry you’re feeling puny, but on the other hand, I am thrilled for the reason! So, like others I am sending you soothing anti-nausea thoughts, but do I dare say, enjoy the baby growing! Here’s to a smooth and healthy pregnancy once the initial part is over with!

    September 12th is the most awesomest day to be born! I should know. It’s my birthday too.

    Congrats! I’m sure Isabelle is going to be a fabulous big sister. You and Allen have done so well with her, now she gets to put her skills to the test.
