First appointment

Yesterday we had our first appointment with Dr. Wiley. She was out of the office dealing with a delivery at the hospital, so Joe performed a sonogram. While we waited for him, Dr. Wiley came back and was so excited to see us.

Well, Joe makes me nervous. I had a partial molar pregnancy a few years back and Joe was the one who found it. Let me tell you, it was very relaxing when Joe found our little Embry with an abdominal u/s and it measured 7w 3d making the due date May 11, 2011. Embry's little heart was beating at 143 bpm and we are so excited. Noah did very well considering we were at the office for 3 hours, but I think he needs a babysitter in the future!

Embry 4

Two weeks ago on September 2, 2011, we found out that we are indeed expecting another baby. It is a very exciting time and we are praying that this little one sticks and stays in our lives for a very long time. Noah will be a fabulous big brother.

We started in the nervous side and went in for multiple blood tests until finally being given a progesterone supplement. If this little one keeps growing inside me then the due date should be May 13, 2011 on Mother's Day. It seems so long away but so close at the same time. We plan to tell family after the 1st appointment on September 26th where we will hopefully see Embry's little heart beating away. After that we will make the Facebook announcement after the first trimester is over on Halloween.

It is just a very exciting time when our family is growing! The only hope is that next school year I will find a job so that we can afford things we need like a larger vehicle.
