Well I had my final ultrasound w/the ppl who "knocked me up" yesterday. The baby was one day ahead in terms of growth, which was nice! They gave me a little card w/congratulations on it and they gave me a final "goodbye" speech. Now I switch over to an OB who will start the real testing with me. I have my first appt (g-d willing) on November 12th, which by that time I should be 9 1/2 weeks... Thats one of those really long appts but it will start the path of babyness to delivery and beyond! Of course I am taking this preggerness day by day and its still hard for me to believe.. But moment by moment, but I'm 8 weeks :)
Its an interesting journey. Some moments I will be buzzing along and happy as always and the next I will be drop-dead exhausted. I can't keep my head up or even like move. So its a struggle. But in the end of course is worth it. But I think there is also something to pacing yourself and pacing telling ppl. I mean I'm pregger for about 40 weeks. Thats a freakin' long time. So if you make it new and fresh to yourself and others then it lasts longer.
My parents found out last night via the grandparents book I got for them (how to say grandpa/grandma is hebrew, yiddish, etc), and inside the book was a grandparents card w/a picture of the sonogram. Then on the back of the sonogram I wrote "your first picture of your grandchild.' So it was all cutesy and I sent it via FedEx so I tracked it and all...
Next up is to tell the sisters/brother/grandmothers. Since I just told the parents in the 8th week, I might save the mid-8th/early 9th week for them, etc, etc...
Tis it for now!
