14 weeks 1 day

So I am pregnant, and anxious and excited and scared and happy and terrified and hopefull and confused and ........

Today it is 14 weeks 1 day....DD is 17 Aug which is also DH's b-day....

I have been scared to acknowledge and write about this till now. I have wanted to document this whole experience all along but have kept off it. Just thinking that I could stay detached....I have suffered loss....last year...an early miscarriage. So am very scared and anxious in this one. I am past the mark of last time though.

I have seen the ultrasound at 8 weeks and heard the heart beat at 12 weeks. It was a swishing sound at 130 BPM. The normal range is supposed to be 120-160. The doctor thinks everything is normal so far. But I keep freaking out. Now that I am past the nausea and extreme fatigue stage, I feel I need to know something to reassure me that things are going well. I get lot of gas and burp a lot. Also, have started getting pressure headaches since past 3 days. have taken Tylenol twice so far.

Only the immediate family and Nanz know about it so far. And the exciting part is that N is 8 weeks into it too.....Am really excited about going through this time with her along. Am praying that things can work out well for both of us.
