OK, so we’re a little

March 28, 2004 by Amy

OK, so we’re a little surprised. I posted a while back that we had started trying but boy, it didn’t take long! Last time it took 15 months and this time only 2! Friday morning I was feeling nauseous. I thought maybe I was hungry and tried to drown it with some root beer. We took Emma to the zoo about 10 and I could not handle the smells. Normally I can smell it but it doesn’t bother me. This time I was having to hurry Scott and Emma along to the next one. At this point I was thinking it could be pregnancy nausea, but wasn’t convinced. We came home, ate and went to the post office. On the way back, I asked Scott to stop at CVS so I could buy a test because I still wasn’t feeling right. When we got home Emma was asleep and I promptly took the test. It immediately came up. I started dancing around the bathroom saying I’m pregnant, I’m pregnant. Scott, was like Hold on, it says you have to wait a minute! Well, anyone that has taken a positive one knows if it’s gonna show up, it usually does pretty quickly. We ended up emailing our immediate family the picture of the test. Everyone was a little shocked but really happy. I don’t know exactly how far along I am because I don’t have marked down my last period. I won’t go into details, but I think the conception date is March 4. So, what I’m really hoping is the dr. decides to do an ultrasound! I doubt it but it would be nice. I’m thinking I’m 2 weeks ahead of when I got pregnant with Emma and Emma was 2 weeks early, so I think they will be almost exactly 2 years apart!
This of course has given us the kick in the butt to put in for Scott’s transfer back home. I can’t imagine doing this here by ourselves. He’s going to talk to his corporal who is out now on “maternity leave” when he gets back at the beginning of April.
Oh! So, I forgot the rest of the story on Friday. I ended up getting REALLY sick. Scott had left for work at 2:30. By 4:30 I was doubled over in the living room. I called Scott and told him he needed to come home. So he did. It turned into a stomach virus. I was pretty weak even yesterday. Just today I can walk around and do things like I need to. I’m hoping the nausea is only due to that stomach virus and not the pregnancy. I can remember curled up on the couch the first go around thinking how in the world would I do this with another one running around the house. The rest of this year should prove to be quite interesting!
