I went to the Dr on Wednesday and all is well...thankfully! I will be 6 weeks along on Sunday and I am SO excited! I have to go next Friday for an ultrasound to see exactly how far along I am. They believe they are right on target though. My due date is September 20, 2010...I know that is prone to change during the pregnancy, but at any rate...I will get my baby for a birthday present, mine is the 22nd!
Some have commented that there is no way I could be showing so soon, actually there is. My mom was in maternity clothes by 2 months as was my sister. So it is entirely possible that I am already showing...believe me, it's not bloat or gas...that would go away! LOL It's been a steady "baby bump" since about a week ago.
Josh and I still can't hardly believe that we are going to have a baby!!! We are SO thrilled and can't wait to meet our precious little baby!!!
It's possible to be showing now. I started showing very early on and was huge by 4 months. But then it slowed down a little.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad everything is going well.
Kristina, you look perfectly healthy and normal in your photograph! God made us all unique women that show at different times, plus you're a little slip of a woman from what I've seen in prior photographs of you, so of course that could be a reason!
ReplyDeleteAND...there's also a chance that there's a Jostina AND a Krishua! Wouldn't that be an incredible blessing X2! :)
Your new little family continues to be in my prayers and may the Lord always be with you.
September's a great month! My birthday is the 21st. You get past the summer, and by the time you think: get this kid out! LOL!!, you'll give birth in the cooler temps. Our first is 24 years old, and she was a wedding night baby!! ;o)
ReplyDeleteremember that it shold be a month long due date and normal gestation is 38 to 42 weeks. Let the baby choose his own birthday.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have been too sick. THinking sticking thoughts for you. You might want to pick up Ina Mae Gaskin's guide to childbirth, btw.
I am just so so excited for you two!!!! My sister is expecting also and due around her birthday as well as you! :-) Should be one of your best birthdays ever, huh? :-D
ReplyDeleteKristina, the women saying that you can't show that early must be comparing it to their pregnancies because THEY didn't. I did, every single pregnancy so far. I have been in maternity clothes by ten weeks, and that was the latest. Different women are different and people just need to get over the fact that you are showing already.
ReplyDeleteI have been following your blog for a while, I found it through Jessica's. I was searching for something else and came across hers. So obviously you don't know me. But I wanted to tell you how impressed I am with you, you seem to be a very strong young woman with a Faith that many people don't have. Congratulations on your baby! And yes, it is possible to start showing soon. I did and so did all the women in my family. I'm sorry you had so many bad experiences with commenters, some people just will not accept that maybe they are wrong and they try to make other people feel bad in their efforts to deny the Truth. God Bless you and your family.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! Praying all goes well for you as you prepare to welcome the little addition!
ReplyDeleteKristina I just wanted to popo in and say congratulations! I showed early too. By 3 months I couldn't fit into my clothes anymore!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, congratulations on your new blessing! I just recently came across your blog and have started reading it for the first time. I would not choose to live my life in the same way that you live yours, but I am glad that you have faith and you seem to have a caring husband who shares in your beliefs.
ReplyDeleteI did want to provide this link: http://www.childbirthconnection.org/article.asp?ck=10238 to you. It's an interesting reference. I also wanted to point out that it is actually impossible for the baby itself to be showing in "bump" form just yet. I'm not saying it's not a pregnancy related bump, because it definitely is, just not the baby itself yet!
Good luck!
