Hidden Post Series: We have less than a week to wait now.

Wednesday, August 1, 2012:
It's officially August and our doctor's appointment is 6 days away. We are so nervous, anxious, excited and happy, etc. We leave for the mountains this weekend so the weekend will fly by. I can't tell you how much I've asked God for comfort and peace. I know that everything is in His hands - which a great place to be - but for my own sanity, I continue to ask for patience and peace and I certainly think He has provided that for me.

Now, both sets of parents know and my brother knows now, too. Other than that - we haven't told a soul. And, even if everything goes perfectly on Tuesday, we would probably wait another 3-4 weeks before sharing the news any more.

Now I've started to think that about things like: How do I tell other relatives? How do I tell work and who should I tell first? What all will happen as this doctor's visit? I know there will be a "nurse talk" and ultrasound...I would think they would do the ultrasound first. I mean, if somethings wrong, they would want to know upfront instead of wasting your time with vitamin talk.

Not to mention those clearance clothes I purchased from Old Navy (online) arrived and I have not opened the package. I just figured it could wait. It's not like I need to wear any of it now. My clothes fit fine - although I feel like my stomach looks bloated all of the time.

Well, here's to the next 6 days going by quickly!
