Poppyseed

I wrote this post ahead of time to chronicle our pregnancy journey before we made the big announcement for all the world to see! 7.12.12

S-L-O-W is the theme of this week. I've had plenty to do, but I have had my eye on the clock all week! It's so hard to keep a secret, and we aren't sure when we will tell everyone, but we know that we want to let it sink in a bit more for us first.

We've had fun taking some pictures :)

I've had some of the signature early pregnancy sypmtoms, but they've been pretty mild.

• I felt pretty faint during my friend's wedding 2 weeks ago (about a week after conception), but I thought it was due to lack of sleep. I guess there was a little more going on :) I also felt lightheaded in church last Sunday, about four hours before we took the test!
• I've had some light cramping, which completely seemed like normal PM symptoms, which is one of the main reasons I was so shocked to find out they were a different kind of cramps!
• I've been a little more emotional than usual. I cried during a morning talk show make-over. I do tend to tear up about things like that, but this wasn't just a tear or two.

Other than that, nothing seems different at all. It's a weird stage to be in. We are anxiously awaiting our first appointment at 11 weeks.

Love, the George family
