oh baby!

well, as most everyone knows by now i'm preggo! yay!! rey and i are so stinkin excited! it's actually kind of funny because we had tried in the past to get pregnant when rey was in the marines since we had free insurance and everything would have been paid for, but it never ended up happening. we were pretty sad for a bit, but we decided it was probably for the best and figured we would wait a while for rey to get a job and get school going before we tried again. well, surprise! i ended up getting pregnant pretty much as soon as he got out. actually, i think we found out around the exact time that our insurance from the marines stopped. i actually think the way we found out was pretty funny. we had spent the day fishing and at night i realized that i was a day late for my period, which happens, but not too often. we knew it was probably too early to be taking a test, but we had one left over from back in cali so we figured we would try it. well, i took the test and a very very second light line showed up, which to me was crazy because all over tests always had just shown that one line. i began freaking out and quickly started googling and everything said even a faint line means you're pregnant. even though it was really really late at this point we ran to wal mart and bought the expensive tests that actually say pregnant or not pregnant. when we got back home i took the test and it said pregnant! rey and i were so extremely happy! even though we weren't trying and been planning on waiting a little bit we were just so excited because both of us wanted to become parents so bad! i think one of the funniest things is when i had read up on being pregnant it said the more morning sickness you have, the less chance of a miscarriage you have. well for the next couple of weeks i was freaking out because i wanted morning sickness, and it ended up starting at about 6 and a half weeks and now i am absolutely miserable! i can't believe i had actually been looking forward to the morning sickness stage! i'm definitely ready for the second trimester to come and i better not be one of those women that have it their entire pregnancy! being sick is no fun, and since i'm working full time, it's definitely not fun to be in the middle of my shift and having to run to the nearest bathroom to puke my guts out! another thing i think is funny, which is actually pretty sad on my part, but when i thought of being pregnant i was all stoked thinking about being able to eat whatever i wanted since i had to eat a little bit more since i would need to eat more because of the baby. well, eating is actually a HUGE pain in the butt! nothing ever sounds good, and when i finally find something that sounds good, when i eat it i throw it up so i'm back to square one! PLUS, i think i ruined cafe rio for me! i ate there one day and that was actually my worst day yet of throwing up and now just thinking of cafe rio makes me gag and sick to my stomach! i'm just hoping that maybe some day it will sound appetizing because that would make me sad to not want to eat there again since it has been one of my favorite restaurants! i know it may seem like i am complaining a lot, but like i said earlier, i am so excited to be pregnant. when rey and i went to the first doctor's appointment that was seriously one of the best day's ever! i was actually a bit paranoid since i have been reading WAY too much stuff and i read about how some women will have all the symptoms of pregnancy, but when they get to the doctor they find out they miscarried and it's just an empty embryo or something like that, and i was so paranoid that that was going to happen to me, so when the doctor did the ultrasound and showed us the baby's heart beating i was seriously so unbelievably happy. although, i think the best part was actually hearing the little heart beat! he had a hard time getting it since it was moving around a lot so we only got to hear it for like 5-6 seconds, but it was so awesome to hear! i can't wait for my next appointment and for the little one to get bigger! well, i think that is all for now, but i'll try to keep my blog posted about updates, and maybe when i start taking belly photos as i get further along i will post them on here.
