Pregnancy update

Mi

This is going to be extremely long 🤷🏽‍♀️ and I apologize in advance for the LENGTHY discussion post 😩 and IDK where to post it 🤷🏽‍♀️sooo lol

So ladies I’m currently 14W2D pregnant and by far I’m the happiest. So around the time I got married (March 2018), my now husband and I had decided (while dating 2 years) that we’d want to start a family. We tried and successfully accomplished what we wanted. On the day of my expected AF, I tested while he was at work. Our first positive! I instantly called him. He said “is it a faint line?” I answered “yes” he said let’s test again in a few days to see if it gets darker. Fast forward two days of waiting, I tested at 6:45am because I just couldn’t sleep! He was resting so peacefully, but I turned on the light after waiting my 3 minutes for the test to complete. Woke him up and made him look lol. He was extremely happy. Then back to sleep he went

Around 5 weeks was when my morning sickness hit and i wasn’t eating everything in sight 😂 I made it work though. Around this time I was scared out of my mind (due to 2 miscarriages in the past). I had tried to make an appointment since I was 6W pregnant and they wanted me to wait until I was 10-12W. By then anything could’ve happened 😣 but our faith in God kept us afloat!

I was then able to make an appointment with an OBGYN but yet again I’d be waiting. The sicker I got, the more my husband and his mother worried. She called a few doctors for me and got me an appointment with an amazing OBGYN. I was about to get my paperwork in and get checked. Even hear my babies heartbeat. My husband was there, he recorded it 😍 I believe I was 8 weeks. I was given Diclegis and was prescribed to take it morning, afternoon and night! Oh it worked wonders!

I continued to make my appointments etc but let’s fast forward to the day that my heart dropped to my pelvis 😑 my OB’s assistant couldn’t find my child’s heartbeat. It took her 2-3 minutes to find it. I was 11W. I look over at my husband and he looks at me. She said “if I cannot find the heartbeat, I will order an emergency ultrasound.” My heartbeat picked up on the Doppler 😂 she said for me to remain calm 😑 WOMAN!!!!!! I was about to snap then I heard our strong heartbeat. Our peanut. So relieved to hear it I cried a little with my shirt up. God really hears a silent cry

Let’s fast forward to 13W (when I think all my morning sickness is gone) 😂 oh no it was like Cruella de Vil 😂 so evil, wicked and just disrespectful. I ended up in the hospital. 4-5 times in the same week. Not eating, dehydrated, not keeping anything down. Just worse than in the beginning of my pregnancy. My husband was there every step of the way. Although I didn’t allow him to take off from work (we will need the money since I don’t work). He is God sent 😍 but the first hospital visit was the scariest. I was alone and scared. The next day I was feeling terrible but wanted to get out of the house. Where do we go? Well he planned it all out. We went to babiesrus. Got a stroller car seat combo. $350 value only in my car for $188 and and diaper bag value of $100+ only paid $60😇 and well I found a cover outside in one of the carts (I feel it was there for us lol) *pause bathroom break calls* *I’m back* but he calls me and the baby spoiled 😩😂 we cannot help it lol

Now that the hospital visits are to an end, I’m eating and drinking my fluids normally, we went out yesterday for me to get my walk in on the school track and so he can train for his boxing tournament coming in July. Perfect way to start the day. We then went to a few stores. Not expecting to see anything for the baby. But just as we were leaving he saw a onesie 3 pc set with a pair of socks and a hat. It caught his eye because of our last name ALI 😍😍😍😍 we bought it. No we don’t know if we’re having a boy or girl but trust this momma will make it work 😂 girl=polka dot shorts with it 😂 I’m so in love with it. I can’t wait to actually start baby shopping 💗💙 can’t wait to find out the gender

Alright ladies I know this was extremely long and probably pointless but I felt the need to tell you ladies that there is a light at the end of the tunnel you’re traveling. Whether you’re pregnant or trying to get pregnant. If you’ve miscarried, my rainbow 🌈 baby made an appearance, and yours will too 😘 #stickybeanstoeveryone and happy pregnancies and LOTS OF DAMN BABY DUST 😘🌈💕💙👋🏽
