semi-OT and semi-AW, but excited to say...I'm pregnant!
is Jewels. Love her very much!
Yaaahooo! What great news! You will be the best mother. I bet you are soooo excited now, and a little scared too. Don't be 'cause you will do great. That's just who you are. You're amazing. Enjoy every second of this. Keep a journal. Someday you will want to look back and re-live all that you are feeling right now. Keep us posted.

Wow - overwhelming support here (you know, from all you MEAN DSers!). Thank you all so much!
Try to answer a couple questions...we're not pulling too hard one way or the other for a girl or a boy. We've had a girl's name picked out for a while now (some family names from Jeff), but no boy name. However, I've always kinda wanted a boy and then a girl so there would be a big brother. However again, I have much more experience with baby girls among my family and friends than I do with baby boys. So either way, we'll figure it out! But we will find out ASAP because I want to be able to decorate and buy lots of clothes and not have to do everything gender neutral :)
I'm drinking WAY more water now - Diet Pepsi started tasting AWFUL to me last week! That was the habit I thought would be toughest to break, and it turned out to be super easy since my hormones took care of it for me!
I'm not eating enough at all, but I just can't stomach most things. I thought maybe it was the low-carbs foods that were not sitting well, so on Saturday morning, we went to Panera, and I got a breakfast sandwich on an asiago cheese bagel (YUM) thinking maybe some carbs would help. I was very wrong :P
I will definitely be pushing my docs for more testing than usual. I'm sure I'll get yelled at on day 1 for taking too much vitamin A, but I'll just hope they will listen to me. If not, I'm sure there are other docs out there still accepting new patients :D
