My first blog

I will start by saying I am very new at blogging, so I don't really know what I am doing. I had the intentions of starting a blog for quite some time but found myself procrastinating for whatever reason. I thought I should start soon since this year has been the most exciting for me!


This year I experienced an absolute miracle: I had a baby! If you would have asked me whether or not I would become a Mom in years past I would have been doubtful. I was told I would have a difficult (if not impossible) time having children do to complications I had at birth (I was born 5 months pre-mature) so therefore I planned to adopt at some point in my life.

It all started last fall. I started feeling tired and worn out, and I was always hungry, and no matter how healthy I ate or how often I worked out I seemed to be gaining weight, I figured I had problems with my thyroid so once December hit I went to the doctor...she said "are you sure your not pregnant?" I had taken drugstore pregnancy tests and they had all been false so I was positive that I wasn't. I didn't have any morning sickness, and other than fatigue and weight gain did not have the typical "signs" of pregnancy. I told her it was impossible, but she wanted to be sure, I will never forget what she said next. "honey...your halfway there!" I felt my heart race, I felt like I would pass out on the table...I was shaking, I said "are you serious?" we listened to the heart beat and she then told me I was roughly 41/2 months along! All this time I thought I was sick when in fact I had a baby in me!
