Tomorrow is the Day

I will be 19 weeeks tomorrow, and that marks a HUGE milestone in my pregnancy. I was 19 weeks when I lost Samantha in 2003, so getting over this hump will signify great progress. I have been getting nervous. Most women are told that if you get past 12 weeks your chances for miscarriage decrease greatly. But I know that isn't always true. I have been praying and hoping and paying attention to every ache, pain, and unfamiiar movement just to make sure that I don't miss any potential problems. So far so good.

I haven't really come to terms with this pregnancy. I know I am pregnant, but I haven't really been enjoying it. Some of that has to do with me being sick all the time, but a lot of it has to do with me not allowing myself to become too excited for fear of another loss. However, I am starting to get very excited. When we found out that she was a girl and decided to name her Mya Therese, I started feeling more and more hopeful. I guess that is all my DH and I have: hope.

Please hope with us.

lol I was so certain my second one was a boy that I made out the birth announcements and had the newspaper announcement ready to go, just needed to get the wt and length...(we couldn't find out from the ultrasound because she wouldn't cooperate...and she was too big to get a good picture of) so imagine my surprise when the dr said "it's a girl" lol

I love the name you've chosen! It's so pretty and feminine.

I have soooooo many boy clothes for Hope. LOL Everyone in my family was convinced she was a boy, but of course, any child of mine is going to come out proving everyone wrong, just for fun. :)

Look how cute your little baby looks on your ticker!

I tried to comment when you posted, but Motime wasn't cooperating. And I see you commented yesterday, so you've nearly made it through the week. Wonderful feeling, isn't it?

I hope that 2006 is going to be the best year of your life...so far!

Thanks IML. I am feeling good so far. Tuesday is my official weekend (I turn 20 weeks) and I have a doc appointment the same day. I think once I see that everything is OK with my baby girl, things will get a lot easier.
