Well we've been off to a long start but after some convincing from co-workers we are unleashing our Blog for everyone to view.
Give me a few hours to get this figured out then check back for recent photos and posts. In the mean time for those of you that have missed my progress here's a little synopsis...
1st Trimester: Shock and nerves aside, three words... Piece Of Cake! I lucked out, there were a few occasions where I fell asleep mid sentence but other than ultimate exhaustion I felt no symptoms of pregnancy.
2nd Trimester: We had a scare at 3:30am Week 13 after several hours at the hospital I was instructed to stay home and take it easy for a few days. Week 14... Complete bed rest. According to doctors I had a subchoriotic bleed that was the size of half of my uterus and if it didn't stop, I was in danger of losing the baby. Five weeks, five ultra sounds, umpteen doctor visits, hours of daytime television, hundreds of bonbons, and endless hours or boredom later I was released to go back to work in hopes that the problem would just resolve itself.
Beginning of 3rd Trimester: Well so far so good. My hormones have been getting the best of me as some might know but otherwise I feel good. Every time I look in the mirror I recognize myself less, I check my toes every from time to time and so far they're all still there, bending over not required. I'm determined to keep going to the gym and doing yoga to keep from sitting down one day and not being able to get back up.
13+/- Weeks remaining, wish us luck!
