Yes I know I haven't written in quite some time!
As of tomorrow I am 13 weeks pregnant. How the hell did that
happen?
In the past 6 weeks I have had two cases of bleeding. Of
course I freaked out and thought my pregnancy was over. My dear wife Lauren
stayed calm and reassured me this can be totally normal. After 2 ultrasounds
and lots of blood work, I am delighted and relieved to say I have a nice healthy
baby doing flips in my belly. I may just have a vascular cervix which is prone to some bleeding.
We have switched over from my Dr. D my current OB/GYN to a
birth center with an awesome group of midwives. Lauren had our son J at a
similar birth center and we both really liked the care and experience. The only reason why I chose a different birth
center is because I want to have a water birth and this is the only birth center in the area that offers this.
I am 100% dedicated to having as natural of a birthing experience
as possible. Water has always been very soothing to me and from what I read it
is very helpful in pain management and with the prevention of tearing.
May 3 we will find out what we are having! I am so very
excited. Of course we will be happy
whether it’s a boy or a girl and we really only want a healthy baby, but I am
hoping for another boy. It would be a tad easier as we have everything packed
away from J. Having a teenage daughter right now does now make me yearn for
another female in my house.
Hopefully I will update more but I will leave you a picture
of our 10 week ultrasound of “Speck”.
