glorious morning sickness & a book for the dad-to-be

from Brandy:

I've been having morning sickness like crazy! I can't stand up, move, walk, or even lay down--- without feeling nauseous! I've read that morning sickness is a good sign that you won't miscarry. I am so thankful for this glorious morning sickness!

Shortly after Ethan and I found out we were pregnant, I found my way to the bookstore for a few books so we could read up on all the changes that are going to be coming soon. One of the books that I picked up is called, Your Pregnancy: For the Father-to-Be. Ethan has started reading this book already and he is already feeling pretty smart and knowledgeable on the subject. While I was laying on the couch earlier today, Ethan came up to me and said, "how is your amniotic sac doing? and I really hope that you don't get Braxton Hicks contractions." It was the funniest thing! It still makes me laugh when I think about it!

Anyway, a couple days ago I was talking to my mommy about all the things that we are learning and I asked her what she remembered about her first pregnancy. Towards the end of our conversation she told me that she recommended that we write things down for our baby to read later. This blog is a way for us to share the journey of our pregnancy with you, our family and close friends.

Thank you so much for praying for us and Baby Perky! We have another doctor's appointment on Friday. They are trying to see us pretty regularly right now because of the miscarriage. We will keep you updated.

love,
Brandy
