14 weeks today, and it’s a BOY! 💙

I was so very convinced that this baby was another girl, but nope. My heart is overflowing.

Now to decide on a name, which lets be honest is the hardest part. We’ve narrowed it down to three choices:

Jonah: which I love, but Joseph thinks to too similar to his name. 🙄

Isaiah: in honor of my best friend’s baby that she lost almost a year ago. Personally we both love this one, and I know that she would love it...but Joseph thinks that she would be offended.

or

Samson: a name we both like.

From goal shorts to bump shorts...so worth it, but I worked so hard to get there. 😅❤️🤰

I love this baby so much already. Daniel and Emily are so stinking excited. They both say they’re having a brother. My doctor mentioned that she wanted to do non-invasive genetic testing around 12 weeks, and that if I did it, we could find out the gender as well....and y’all know me 🤷🏼‍♀️ #impatient

I knew Daniel was a boy, and I wanted Emily to be a girl, but never had an intuition either way...I feel like this baby is another girl, but only time will tell. 🤗

Progesterone is low, and tsh is at 16.4...

So thyroid meds and progesterone suppositories again.

So this happened today.

I am unbelievably stressed. I haven’t been to a doctor since November 2017. 😅

So I haven’t had my thyroid levels checked. I mean I’ve felt really good, and I’ve been able to drop weight without my prescription, but a 6 causes full term babies to be stillborn...and so I’m freaking out, because when I found out I was pregnant with Daniel, I was at 29.8 🙃

I made an appointment to confirm it for tomorrow at 10:30, and I’m hoping that when I call my doctors office that he can just order labs from the hospital in Branson, since it’s the same hospital, just another city...and I can be assured that everything is fine by Friday, and he can order progesterone if I need it again, or a thyroid med.

This wasn’t planned. I only took a test today to confirm to myself that I wasn’t pregnant, and it was just normal to be this exhausted when you’re working 60 hours a week....but I was wrong and condoms are only 99.9% effective. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Happy Star Wars today!

Photo dump from the last few months.  I haven’t been on here, because I forgot my password, and just never remembered to reset it. 

Anyway, since I’ve been gone: -We opened an Italian bistro that’s taken off well, and that’s been fun, and exhausting. -Daniel got his first hair cut...heartbreaking.  -I fit into my goal shorts! From busting out of 22′s--to fitting into 12′s. I still have 40 more pounds to lose though.. -Joe’s reached the weight/body fat requirements that he needed to to join the military, and is in the process of getting all that stuff in place.  -We spend a lot more time outside than ever before.
