Our 2nd Blessing

Yes, it's true!! Our family of 3 will soon be a family of 4!! Darin and I found out about 2 weeks ago that we are pregnant. At this point, we aren't exactly sure how far along we are. When I went for my pregnancy test and they were asking about my last period, they decided that I am probably further along than I thought I was. When I took the pregnancy test, I had just missed my first period so I was assuming that I would have been 5 weeks the following Sunday. But when I told them that my last period was not even a full day long (where it is usually 3-4 days long), they decided that the last one was just a spotting and I was about a month further along than I originally thought; so that put me at 9 weeks instead of 5. I said, "I'll take it!!" It makes for such a llooooonng pregnancy when you find out at 4 weeks!! I have an appointment for the 28th of September. I know I will get my physical that day and I am hoping for an ultrasound to find out EXACTLY how far along I am. As of now, my due date is April 10, 2010. Darin and I both are VERY excited about this new addition. We both know that people are going to look down on us and talk about us because of our living situation and the fact that this child has been concieved out of wedlock. It's not going to bring us down though!! In less than 7 months, we are going to have another baby and Ethan is going to have a little brother or sister!! A baby that we are already falling deeply in love with!!! :-)
