Hawkins Family Grows!

I'M PREGNANT!!!! YAY!!! That is exactly how I feel. I feel like I am going to jump out of my skin. I am so giddy :-) I have already told my relatives, and posted the news on Facebook. I'm never the type to be able to keep it a secret. Now the only thing that is on my mind is: I hope I don't have a miscarriage! I know, such a morbid topic considering I just found out I have a new life growing in me! I am always such a worry-wart.

Here's the good news: My first doctor's appt. is on Jun 15th (only 20 more days!). It is supposed to be at 8 weeks, but my cycles are usually longer, so I bet they'll find the baby to only be 7 weeks. Tristan was 6 1/2 weeks at my '8 wk' appt. The baby's due date will likely be at the very end of January, or early Feb, but i'll post when they let me know.

The less good news: It is not good to nurse while pregnant, so Tristan needs to wean soon (Probably within a week). It is good that he was already almost weaned (only 2/day). Starting today, I removed his morning nursing, but i'll do the bedtime one for 4-5 days, then that will be it! It is sad :-(

We are already looking at baby names! I am so excited about this baby! I have been praying so much about this, especially for the past month. God truly has been faithful to my family. My faith has truly grown through the pregnancy and birth of my child(ren).

As of right now, I feel great! I am not very far in the pregnancy yet. I have been a little more tired, and hungry, but no sickness. We will see what happens. No sickness for my last pregnancy, so let's hope it is the same!
