T Minus 7 Months (or thereabouts)




Came back from our fabulous sun & rum filled vacation in Bermuda on Fri Sept 1st. Noticed on the flight back home that I wasn't feeling all too good but did not pay much attention. After some mathematical calculations we decided to take a pregnancy test on Fri Sept 8th - the plus sign showed up before the test was even done! Had the first ultrasound at 5 weeks 6 days - could not see anything yet, but was told it was probably too soon. Went home feeling disappointed. Went back for a second ultrasound at 7 weeks 6 days and low and behold there was a tiny blob & strong heartbeat of 155 bpm. What a relief! Experiencing the usual early symptoms - lots of bathroom trips, very tired & having bouts of nausea - not to mention lettuce gives me the creeps!
