Week Five

So on November 23, 2008 I found out I was pregnant. I called Adam as he was at the store at the time and asked him to pick up so more tests as I didn't believe the one I had already taken. Sure enough every test I took came back positive. Kasier confirmed it on November 25, 2008 which is the same date that Adam and I had our first date on, and the same date that Adam propsed to me. I take that to mean that everything is going to work out great, in additon my due date is August 4, 2008, only 4 days before our wedding annivsary, now if I deliver past my due date on August 8 it's going to get a little creepy at that point. I had my first Kasier appointment yesterday which means I did the pile of paperwork and my lab tests. My mother-in-law said I should keep a diary about my pregnancy but I thought hey I will do one better and blog about it. Don't worry I am not going to be putting any gory details into this but it's will be a nice way to keep our friends and family updated about the new addition.

I do have some concerns though about this pregnancy as I admit I am overweight and when I went into my appointment yesterday they stated that my blood pressure is a little high. I have an appointment next monday to check that again and disucss my asthma, in additon my appointment for my first ultrasound is 12/29.

So far so good with my symtoms I was dizzy and light headed on my 2nd day of knowing I was pregnant and I have some slight cramping but that is it so far. I have already finished my first pregnancy book Healthy Pregnancy by the Mayo Clinic, which I do recommened it was really helpful and has some easy refernce sections.
