first entry

be patient as i learn how to get this thing started. not too computer literate until i've done it a bunch of times, so here it goes.
mike and i had our first midwife and student midwife meeting this morning, everything looks fine and all our blood work is perfect (actually i carry a lot of oxygen on my RBC so maybe that is why mike calls me Turbo!!). we are 19 weeks or somewhere around there, i can't keep up with all the dates people go by ;)
mike said he is going to keep me pregnant all the time because i'm nicer and don't have to deal with those dreaded horrible monthly cramps. they say that will be good training for the big day.
as most know already, mike and i are going to have a home birth to ensure the healthiest environment for the baby and me to be in for our special day. we are not opposed to hospital births, but want to stay away if at all possible--but you all know that OB situations can change, we'll keep you updated.
we are scheduled for an US Dec 13, but hopefully we won't find out what sex it is as we want to keep it a surprise.
so far pregnancy has been a breeze, no morning sickness, just one 10 second bout of nausea and that's it. finally starting to bump out just a bit, so exciting to finally feel pregnant.

okay, that's enough for me to type today.
