Well this is my first time to blog, not really sure where to start. My family wants to see updates of Collin and the progress we have made. I am currently 26 weeks pregnant. 13 more weeks to go. My doctor gave me a due date of October 2nd but I am hoping to be sooner. She pushed me up 5 days so far, she said he is growing fast and "I have a big boy" (very excited, but also a little nervous, I don't want to have a 10lb baby.)
We found out that we were expecting on January 30th. We had been trying for about 7 months before it happened. Everything was great the first two weeks of being pregnant. But after that it all went down hill. I was very sick the first 5 months. Not until the beginning of June did the morning sickness go away. My morning sickness was morning, noon and night. I could not hold anything down. I lost 21 lbs in the first 5 months. I still haven't got back to my beginning weight but we are getting close.
Things are much, much better now. Now I can pretty much eat anything and feel great. I love peanut butter and watermelon. My tummy is huge, any weight that I gained back he took it all. Some times we see people in town that are about as far along as we are and they are barley even showing, tiny baby bump. But oh no, Mr Collin has to show his stuff. He is also very active and a super kicker in my tummy. He is awake all the time and kicks and moves around. Today he even kicked my phone off my tummy. Its amazing. I thought him, kicking all the time would hurt but not really.
There is so much more to write, but I will post more tomorrow. It is 10pm, going to try and get some sleep. Going to add some pictures too.
