Happy 14 weeks

Well..it's official, hello 2nd trimester! 1 down, 2 more to go. Hey, 1/3 of the way isn't too bad. We start measuring my cervix on Monday. To make a long story short, I had a bit of a traumatic doctor appointment with the high risk OB last week (it's too overwhelming to go into) but baby bean looks great! My cervix wasn't stellar, but they said it was still a little early to be getting accurate readings ( why did we check then...hmmm). At any rate, we go back on Monday to check in on my cervix and see if it lengthened or shortened. I am pretty overwhelmed with the thought of a cerclage, so if you have any positive stories out there...feel free to let me know!

Here's a belly pic at 14 weeks. (please ignore the mess on the table! haha)

    My high risk OB has and will be checking my cervix too just to be on the safe side.

    Hoping everything continues to go smoothly my dear friend.

    Awww, "hi" cute tummy! I know how scary the notion that anything, anything at all can go wrong is...but a cerclage isn't *so* bad in the grand scheme of things, particularly if they're catching your need for one early (much better than an emergency cerclage down the road, right?). I have a friend who's had a cerclage placed with each one of her three healthy, beautiful daughters (born at about 37-38 weeks each). Thinking of you and sending all kinds of good vibes for a continued healthy pregnancy! You look just glowing and wonderful, sweet Kate.

My Beta

So...my level today was 108!!! The nurse said that was a perfect, healthy number...not too high, not too low. Chances are good we have one little charm in there. Which is PERFECT. We won't know for sure until our u/s...but I have been thinking it's one...and a boy. I feel really connected to a little boy, and awhile ago, Zoe came to me in a dream and said we were going to get pregnant with one baby, a little boy, and things were going to be fine. :-) Sweet little baby of mine...comforting her momma even in spirit. It's strange to be pregnant right now...It doesn't feel real quite yet. It does, but it doesn't. I feel really secure about this pregnancy...almost at peace. I feel deep in my heart we are going to bring home a living baby. It's will be strange to be a mother of 2, one in spirit and one here on Earth. I love Zoelle so deeply, and miss her with each breath I take. I wish she was here to share in the joy of this new life. At the same time, the new life ...

Testing, testing,...1...2...3

So I couldn't resist!!! I tried! Yesterday morning I woke up at 4:30 with the urge! The urge to hopefully break our BFN streak and prove to be pregnant. Well, into the bathroom I went, gingerly tip-toeing across the hardwood, attempting to avoid waking up Tim. I slowing opened the home pregnancy test package, praying that what I have been expecting was true. There I was, starring at the test...waiting for the line to arrive (Where else to go during the wee hours of the morning...I was trying not to wake up Tim, or the pups downstairs!). Then it appeared, like a magic trick right before my very own eyes! The faintest of faint pink line. It was so faint, I thought for sure it wasn't real. I bursted back into the bedroom "Tim...Tim...are yo awake?" In reply "Kate, it's 4:30 in the morning, what the heck are you doing up?" "I just took a pregnancy test, there are TWO LINES!" Tim's first reply was "why are you testing already and why at 4:...

Our Rainbow!!!!!

Amazing...simply amazing. I am soaking up every moment. I am so thankful for our little girl. So...introducing River Zoelle Mirth 8 pounds, 11 ounces and 22 inches long!!! Labor was long, hard yet amazingly wonderful. 12 hours of labor and just over 3 hours of pushing (these are the things the docs don't tell you can happen!!!) But we did it!!! Our rainbow is finally here safely in our arms.
