oh wow, that sounds insane! im such a fresh food freak i would literally die there. if something is a single day past its "fresh until" date...i get nervous and throw it out. maybe a little overboard, but its just safer! you never know what expired food could do to you. especially when youre pregnant and have the little one to think about too!

and the cat thing is just mean. that cat is too young to be outside anyway, even if it were an outside cat. but to put it out when he was asked not to is just being a jerk.

i dont blame you one bit for considering going back to your folks place. seems like it would be very difficult to relax in that sort of an environment!

Yeah i know i cant wait to be rid of this place for good ..

Soo i was doing research today as something the doc had said on my last appointment had me kind of puzzled to why he said it and dismissed the subject so fast. and it was my hormone levels where higher than what they were supposed to be so i was doing my research and it said higher hormone levels could mean twins. I was like OMG twins that would be totally crazy. and i was thinking back to that day with the doctor to what we talked about and i asked him about my hormone levels and he said they were very high and i asked him is that good or bad and he said good depends on... then he asked how far along i thought i was and when i said 8 weeks he smiled and changed the subject. so now i really cant wait for my first ultra sound too see whats going on. Its going to be weird if i am having twins on my first baby.

twins would be awesome! i actually sorta thought that when you said the high hormones thing but i was mostly focused on the fact that you could be further along than you thought! that could definitely explain why he was kind of secretive about the whole thing...i mean, he cant really tell you about that until they listen for the heart or do an ultrasound. would you be excited for twins? i think i would be super excited, but im pretty sure my OH would freak. hes already worried about money as it is. lol

now i cant wait for you to go to your ultrasound!! haha. you better start thinking about what other middle names you can use if you need to use more than one of the first names you guys have picked out!

haha yeah i dont know what i would do if i was having twins it would be exciting but i would be nervous about having them especially if they were identical that would be crazy haha. and twins run in our family too. like every generation in my OH's family has a set of twins, so it wouldnt surprise me, and there are lots of sets of twins on my side too.. i did research last night because i was wondering what it could mean about having really high hormones and when i found out i told OH and he was like haha nice.. so i think he will be okay with it

Yes i suppose we will have to get more names and middle names if im having more than one, i guess i have both first names but would need to do the middle names it will be fun coming up with new names thou

thats pretty good odds then that you could be having twins, i mean with it being that common on both sides of your families! and its good that your OH didnt freak out at the mention of it either. lol. man thats big news i wouldnt be able to wait until the next appointment!

if you are having twins itll definitely be good that youre going to be closer to family when the time comes. im sure youll be wanting all the help you can get from your family.

i went to my appointment today, but it was more like a registration. got lots of packets of information and everything. and they did labs to run a bunch of tests. the lab was horrible. i had to drink some gross drink and then wait an hour without being able to eat anything, drink anything, or go to the bathroom before i got my samples taken. ugh...totally made my tummy upset. but i got another appointment for february 24th. we get to do the heart monitor thing then. so thats something exciting to look forward too

ooh thats exciting. what kind of tests did you have done just the regular ones? when i went to the lab i just got my bloods and my urine done. i never had to drink any thing. thats sounds awful but at least you only have to do it once right, hopefully any way ha ha . i didnt know you had to do registraition, is that a military thing or a hospital thing? i didnt have to register here we just went to the clinic and got refered to the hospital then got a ultra sound appointment booked. that wil be really cool to hear the babies heart beat defantly something to look forward to and its closer than your ultra sound

oh my gosh they do a load of tests! they took 8 different vials of blood to run different tests. i think they took glucose test, an rh test, an HIV test, a rubatella, and i cant even remember the others! basically they test you for everything they could possibly test you for all at once.

i think the registration thing is just a military thing. its the fastest, most efficient way to get out all of the information to everyone quickly. the military is crazy and there are so many pregnant women around here. so you do a registration and they tell you all of the information about the pregnancy process, they give you the "what to expect when youre expecting book," tell you about all of the services and classes the military offers, and all that fun stuff. and then they make you an appointment for the full physical and fetal heart tones.

cant wait for the heart tones though!

8 viles?? wholy thats a lot i thought 2 was a lot haha i had to get 2 done when i went in for a couple differant tests, one was a blood pregnancy test i dont mind the niddles so much as i dont look at it when they are doing it. did uget all 8 done at once? that would make me soo light headed :S

I think registration is a good idea to keep every one on track and to know whats happening. it would be a good idea to have registration here because there is so few doctors and so many pregnant women here .. it makes since that the millitary do it as they like to keep order and stuff

ya that must be exciting to be able to hear your babies heart beat i cant wait tell i get to hear mine but that wont be until the day i go in for ultra sound

by the way i forgot to say congrats on hitting 8 weeks thats exciting

yea all 8 at once! i kept thinking to myself, i wonder if this is safe!? lol. its funny how now that im pregnant i think that about everything. the needles dont bother me too much except the military nurses are not delicate at all when drawing blood theyre machines, and they dont really care if they hurt you. i actually have a bruise from where they drew blood on wednesday!

i agree that the registration is a good idea, it think its a very efficient way to communicate all of the information. i just wish i didnt have to wait another month to actually get into see a doctor! lol

youre gonna have an amazing day! ultrasound and heartbeat all at once!

thanks! 8 weeks is exciting...only 42 more to go! its so funny that i look forward to every week because i get a newsletter that tells me how big the baby is compared to fruits. this week the baby is the size of a rasberry. last week it was a blueberry...its crazy, totally makes me stop and look at the fruits in the grocery with more awe!

wow thats a lot of blood 8 would make me feel so light headed. u must be really strong to go threw that i dont know if it would be safe for baby but the doctors should no best and seens how they know your pregnant they wouldnt do it if it were unsafe. Thats still a lot of blood thou. it musta taken a while.

Lol yeah i know how u feel, i wish i didnt have to wait another month to get to go in and see how my baby is doing but so far so good nothing that would give me the idea somethings going wrong so thats a plus

your welcome i remember when i hit 8 weeks i was so excited it felt really good. i have one of those emails too that tells me what the baby looks like each week and everything and it always makes me really excited i cant wait tell i get to the third trimester when it will be an actually baby
