Immediately after I got off work this morning I went to get some labs drawn that Dr. Latinis wanted- nothing but what he normally wants done every few months except for the pregnancy test and HCG levels of course. Three positive pregnancy tests on different days and at different times of the day can't possibly be a fluke, right?
I already felt the mother in me kicking in this morning. I did not question getting my labs done and having a giant needle dug in to my arm and the nasty bruise I will have for weeks again. Anything for my baby.
The phlebotimist (?spelling) says that the results should be back by tomorrow morning. Oh, she better be right because I will be calling in the morning!
I begged Lorna (Dr. Latinis's nurse) to call me tomorrow with the results instead of making me wait until my appointment with Dr. Wickstrom (obstetrician- 4/27/09) which I also made today. Being a higher risk pregnancy I thought that they would want to see me right away, so I was suprised when they said that they don't usually do the first prenatal appointment until you are nine to ten weeks (I am fairly certain that I am six weeks and two days along now). The nurse did say that the appointment would be three hours long (they should know everything about my entire life by the end of it) and that we will get the first pictures of our son or daughter via ultrasound at that time.
Making these appointments for the first time is somewhat nerve racking. It still feels surreal that I am expecting and weird to say "I am pregnant" out loud to someone on the other end of the line. It is something that I am really liking getting used to though.

About Us
- Jeremy & Lacey
- Edmond, Oklahoma, United States
- Jeremy and I met in high school. We were members of the same church youth group. One night before youth group it was raining very hard. My mom suggested that I call Jeremy for a ride. I really didn't want to- being a lowly sophomore it wouldn't be very cool to call a senior for a ride. For some reason (most likely because of God's prodding) I called Jeremy. Within the next week we hung out three more times. Then I came down with Mono, but I still had the strength to ask Jeremy to be my date to a Saddie Hawkins dance. Jeremy of course said yes. A few days before the dance Jeremy asked me to date him at Gumby's Pizza after a friend's baptism and wrecking his car. We have been inseparable ever since. After 6 years of dating, Jeremy and I said "I do". The last year and a half has been a whirlwind. Jeremy moved to KC while I finished my nursing degree. I began my nursing career and now Jeremy will be graduating in May. This May also brings more change as we will be moving and starting new jobs in Edmond, Oklahoma. In addition we found out that we are expecting our first child to arrive in December. Follow our blog as God takes us on the wonderful journey of building our family.
