Snow *UPDATED*

***Updated***
3rd Beta just came in... 271!!! YEA!  And, *holy cow* first ultrasound this Friday!  Is this really happening?!!?


The best part about being pregnant (besides actually being pregnant)... I didn't have to help shovel snow!   Its actually a task I enjoy, or I have learned to, because I usually am the one shoveling.   This past weekend though, I got to sit inside by the 'fake' fire and watch TV, while he was out shoveling!

Last night, my heating pad broke... I don't know what happened, it just stopped warming up.  The light on the dial came on, but no heat.  My feet freeze, all.the.time. so I have it on every night before I go to bed to warm up around my feet.  I realized that it didn't work about 9pm, and there was no way that Travis was going to leave to go buy me another one.  I pulled out all the stops... but he didn't quite see the correlation between cold feet hindering me 'growing a baby'  (which was my excuse to go take a nap yesterday!). 

I also have been feeling twinges.  I know that of course I'm 'Super Aware' of everything going on down there, but I definitely feel twinges. They aren't painful, and never last for more then a second or so. Definitely not cramps. My last two (most recent) pregnancies, I don't remember this at all, which I'm thinking is a good sign because they both ended in m/c. In my mind I'm thinking its my body just getting ready to grow a baby, but not sure.  I'm waiting on my third beta result, so when the nurse calls, I will ask her what she thinks, mostly just to my my mind at rest.

  1. No snow shoveling...that's an AWESOME benefit! Hopefully I get knocked up in time to take advantage of it.

    Can't wait to hear how the third beta goes!

  4. oh, sweet girl, i am so excited for you.

    the twinges are normal and good (although they scared the crap out of me the first time around, prompting a frantic google search and a freaked-out call to the advice nurse at kaiser...)

    your embryo is burrowing down deep, and your uterus is a little freaked out by the changes. remember, a little spotting around now is normal -- and a little blood in a few weeks is generally ok, too. (happened to me with both little buggers -- although (again) it scared the crap out of me)

    :) :) :) i love your pregnancy ticker thingy

  5. I'm very happy for you. I won't say "congrats" just yet. I'm hoping and praying that you have a sticky pumpkin in there. Your betas are doing great things so far! I was wondering and starting to put the pieces of the puzzle together from your last posts. Yay for a little pumpkin!
