thanks everyone. i haven't heard from her yet since they did the d&c yesterday. I told her I would wait for her to call me, once she feels up to talking to anyone. Right now, she wants to be alone with her husband.
Today, Mick went to his new home. He was such a good boy, walked real well right into the trailer, and didn't make any noise until he realized he was leaving - and then he started into a sad like whinny. Almost made me cry - but then I calculated the $ spent on hay and I said, "Good bye, Pig! I mean, Mick!"
He's going to a good home, and they're friends of ours so we can still see him and go for rides on occassion. Best part is, we don't have the food bill!

Went to the Doc's yesterday. It was all right - you know, if you can ever say that those exams are "all right".
I lost 3 pounds in two weeks. I was dancing a gig, doc cautioned me against dieting - to which I replied, "Dieting? I'm not dieting! I've increased my veggies!" she laughed and said that was good.
She talked to us honestly about how we felt about this pregnancy - and we answered her honestly. We told her that we went through a tumult of emotions: shocked, upset, thought of adoption for a minute, shocked, disbelief, tremendous amount of tears after the first test, shock after the second test, and fear to tell anyone. Did I mention shocked?
She said everything we'd been feeling was perfectly normal, and since we also explained the stress we had been under in the weeks prior to discovering our pregnancy, and how often things just do NOT happen (TMI?), she replied, "Well, this baby was meant to be."
I do not get to VBAC. Insurance and hospital policy doesn't allow it. The plan right now is to take the baby on the Monday closest to my due date (which is September 12, 2011) but because I had (ofg look away) placenta previa with my last baby, she said I'm high risk to have it again this pregnancy, so they will be monitoring me closely for that she said - and if it happens this pregnany, they will take baby at 37 weeks - which is August 30.
She said she will pray with us again this time, like she did last time with baby boy, before we go to the OR and I am welcome to have our Pastor come in to pray, too.
The entire staff was very supportive, and not a bit judgemental when we honest told them that at first we didn't want this baby.
Don't freak out on us! We want her NOW! We just had to get used to the idea...
We got to hear the heartbeat - it was in the 160's! Doc had a hard time at first, because she found baby, and then baby wiggled away, so she had to move around the doppler thingy to find baby again - and that took half of forever! But baby finally cooperated and we got to hear her (or his, but I'm stubbornly saying her for now until told different!) heartbeat.
Even that didn't make me feel pregnant. I mean, I know I'm pregnant, and I've had morning sickness, nausea, dizzy spells, etc., but I still don't feel pregnant.
And, most of my clothes (except button jeans) still fit.
They did move my due date up one day - September 16 - so I'm officially 13 weeks tomorrow, and into my second trimester.
Should have my gender telling ultrasound Mid - End of April. Praying selfishly for a girl, but will be happy with a healthy baby no matter gender!
