Bun Update

As I mentioned earlier, we had a slight scare regarding the pregnancy a couple of weeks ago. Now, considering that we just found out a couple of weeks ago, having a scare that soon in the pregnancy was pretty troublesome. Well it turned out to be nothing.

The pains that Jane was having have subsided and she was being monitored by her doctor with blood tests and ultrasounds for days following our initial visit. The blood tests all show that her hormone levels are rising normally and, since the original pain is now gone, plus the lack of any other symptoms indicating an ectopic pregnancy, everything seems to be coming along normally.

We went in last Wednesday to have the follow-up ultrasound and, this time, we were actually able to see something. An egg sack was forming and the little yolk was developing normally so the ultrasound tech informed us that this stage is consistent with a 6-7 week pregnancy (closer to 6). Sorry, couldn't detect a heart beat yet, that's probably about 10-12 weeks away yet.

Now we just have to get our house in order, since we've been lagging on getting the last boxes unpacked since the move - we've just been enjoying our summer up until now. But, Hylah will be starting 4th grade soon and we need to make room for new clothes and other associated Back to School paraphenalia. Plus, pretty soon Jane won't be able to do any serious heavy lifting or moving around furniture and I'll even have to start taking over the daily cleaning of the litter box.... That's gonna suck....just kidding on that last part - Geez! What kind of guy do you think I am?!
