The nausea grips me, and I swallow, pushing against it, willing it to leave me. Sometimes it is a mild thing, there, but not overtaking all my thoughts. I am expecting it to keep increasing. It did with my other 4. I could never hide a pregnancy, because I became sick early on. Yes, we are excited, and can’t wait to meet this new little one, July sometime, Lord willing!
A fun announcement I made up for family and friends. I didn’t mail many, simply because it’s soon time to send Christmas cards, but this was fun to do 🙂
She did order a real baby for her birthday. But that was a few days before her birthday 🙂 These things take a little longer than that 🙂
The children are very excited! One of them wondered how exactly I know I’m having a baby. Um,Uh, (a bit of stuttering), son, after I had 4, I know.” Well, did you have an ultrasound?” I told him no .”Well then, you don’t know!” I sometimes choose to remain silent 🙂
The other son wondered if Dad knows. Yes, I believe he does 🙂
Jenna said she wants a boy. Then she said a girl. We will not be hoping for twins 🙂 I used to think that would be neat. That was before I knew how much work one baby is. Moms of multiples, you are amazing! 🙂
At any rate, I want to embrace this, even on the tough days. I know it will be so worth it!
Happy Thanksgiving! And if you insist on torturing yourself by shopping on Friday, I wish you well 😉
Aww… Congratulations!!! And Happy Thanksgiving! 🙂
Thanks so much, Jenny! And hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your sweet family as well!
Aww congrats. May your nausea take flight and flutters and tiny kicks take its place. 🙂
Thanks, Shannon! I love how poetically you wrote that! 🙂
Oh, how wonderful, Jo!!!! I am so happy for you all. Trusting God to give you a smooth pregnancy with no complications or problems…and hoping that nausea passes soon. Take good care of yourself. 🙂
Thanks so much, Cheryl! I really appreciate your kindness! 🙂
Ah is is wonderful!!! Well not the sickness of course (I can completely relate). Congratulations!!!! God bless! ❤️
Thanks so much, Patricia! One day at a time, right? 🙂
Congratulations!!! How exciting!
Sorry about the nausua! No fun, which I can relate to exactly in this moment. I’m 11weeks & waiting for relief!
Take care!!
Jen, hope you feel better soon! That nausea really can get you down 😦 And thanks for the congrats! 🙂
Congratulations Jolene & family! What wonderful news. I hope you are able to get some confirmation from an ultrasound. (Joking- of course!)
Thanks Monica! And I know on that confirmation thing 🙂 What do I know anyway? 😉 A 10 yr. old would definitely know more than his mother 🙂
