Welcome


Welcome to our website! I (Allie) have way too much time on my hands and decided to make a webpage for our new baby.
As you all should know by now, Greg and I are expecting our first baby August 9, 2006. I am currently 15weeks 6days along and doing well right now. The early part of the pregnancy was rough. From about week 6-13 I had morning sickness on a daily basis. Whoever coined the term "morning sickness" sure didn't know what they were talking about. It is more like all day sickness if you ask me.
Thankfully I am now in my 2nd trimester and the morning sickness is now gone. I have been suffering with migrane headaches, but my doctor put me on allergy medicines and the headaches are not quite as frequent now. Overall I am much healthier this trimester. I am still exhausted all of the time, but it is worth it.
I have monthly OB appointment that have been going well. At 7 weeks we got to see our first glimpse of our baby. It looked like a little blob and we couldn't tell which way was up, but it was so fun to see the little life that is inside my body. It is still a little wierd to me that I have another human being in my body. It became more real at week 15 when I was able to hear the heartbeat. Greg was not able to come to that appointment and was jealous that I was able to hear the baby and he did not. He will get to hear the heartbeat at the next ultrasound though. Speaking of which, it is scheduled for 3/24/06. We will finally be able to tell the gender and then we can stop calling the baby "jellybean" and give it a real name. I can't wait!
I will post pictures of the ultrasound and my growing belly soon.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot - we haven't registered yet so just ignore the links on the side right now.
