I am Pregnant...

Yes, it is true! I am six weeks along right now.
There have been many relatives and close friends that we have told, but I was not planning on telling everyone until we made it through the first trimester.... that is, until today.

Today I started to bleed heavily... yes, I know it could mean that I am going to have a miscarriage. But I havn't yet. I also started to lose blood clots; just like the previous pregnancy with Joshua. Today I went to the Dr. to check things out. The ultrasound went well... there is a HEARTBEAT, which is awesome, but... the ultra-sound technician discovered something that no one has ever caught before. Apparently it looks like I have what is called a Septated Uterus, which is sort of a partition down the center of the uterus. This can apparently cause problems with pregnancy. In the next week or so, I will be seeing a Perinatal Dr, and check out what options there are for this kind of issue.

Because of the complications that I am having (again), I've decided to let everyone know... please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I will update things here when I learn more.

I'm sorry, but I'm glad that the technician caught it. It's good that you know what's going on, and have options now of how you can go about helping it. Stay positive, God loves you. Let me know if I can help with anything.

I think there's something in the air. We got 4 free pizzas tonight. They messed up our order. we were only supposed to get two and they charged us for 4. So we'll have pizza for the next few days.
