Today we are 9 weeks pregnant!
As many of you know this is our second pregnancy and we haven't been telling many folks quite yet. After we lost our son in January of this year I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition called APS (Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome). Say that ten times fast :). It is also called Hughes Syndrome or Sticky blood - http://www.hughes-syndrome.org/overview.htm.
So for this pregnancy I am on daily injections of a low molecular weight herapin called Lovenox. I tell you, I am getting to be quite the pro with a needle. Never thought I'd say that :).
So, Tuesday is our next appointment for our second sonogram. After the first sonogram at 6 weeks and 4 days, the heartbeat was confirmed and it is considered a 'viable pregnancy' - this next appointment was setup by our ob to just 'be sure'. We should also get a chance to get some better pictures of the baby peanut McBride.
So I will update this site with some pics hopefully after Tuesday!
