I did it! I have lost 27 pounds in 10 weeks! I have also managed to gain two feet, two hands and one heart in the process....yes, you are reading this correctly...I am pregnant again! Believe me, it was as much of a shock to Robbie and me as it is probably to you. This baby was not planned at all, but is already loved beyond words.
We found out a few weeks ago and tried our hardest to keep it to ourselves. Well, my husband cannot keep exciting information to himself. So now we are spreading the word. I have to admit that I am terrified. I am so afraid of all of the potential health problems that are a reality for us. Reghan was born with and developed so many health issues within the first year of her life that I am afraid to go through all of it again. This baby's life has already been committed to God on a daily basis. That is all I can do. It is in God's hands and not mine!
For now, I am doing the best I can to keep myself healthy and happy. I have experienced 100 times more "morning sickness" in the last two weeks than I ever did with Reghan. This feeling does not understand that it is susposed to go away in the morning!!! I visit the bathroom more times a day than I ever want to. Hopefully these ginger pills will kick in soon. I need a break from feeling awful.
Reghan is excited at times about having a baby in the house. She is three so she does not completly get it. Her two big cousins are way excited about it and are already arguing about the baby's name. I love it! They are so sweet!
By our best guess the baby is due May 20th, 2010. This is totally comical since Reghan was due May 17th! We could have never planned this. She was born in late April due to complications of preganancy. I am not sure what my doctor is going to say we are doing. The only thing I know for sure is that I will be having a scheduled c-section. It will be nice to know what is a head of me. I won't see my doctor until mid to late October. I will keep you updated on the progress of this new little miracle.
When you think of us please pray. Pray that God will keep this baby safe and my body will not have the same complications that it did last time. Please pray that the baby will be born without health issues and if it is, please ask God for wisdom for the doctors and us. I know God must have a plan for this baby's life just as He does for Reghan's.

Congratulations!!! I've heard the more morning sickness you have the stronger & healthier the baby is. Don't know how much truth there is to and it's probably just an old wives' tale, but maybe it'll give you some comfort during the first few months :) Oh and congrats on the weight loss too!
So, how many weeks are you exactly? And about that morning sickness...hang in there and make Robbie help you more around the house!
Woo-hoo! Another grandkid to spoil! Meanwhile, take good care of yourself and that precious little one.
