The Baby Swapp!!

Okay so I guess my last post was a little deceiving when I said that I would post when something exciting happens in my life.  Something quite exciting has happened, but I haven't been able to get my scanner to work for anything so you are gonna have to live with photobooth pictures of the picture! So here you go... 
Yep... that's right... sometime in the end of July we are expecting a baby Swapp to join our family!! 
When we went in to hear the heartbeat for the first time we also got to see an ultrasound which was pretty sweet. My doctor said that the baby is measuring right where it is supposed to be so hopefully everything goes okay! That big old pointy looking thing on the face- just babyswapp's hand touching its face... we were a little worried about how our baby's nose could possibly be so big at only 11 weeks... but the doctor reassured us that the baby was just feeling its face... no nose there yet!! Thank goodness!! Aaron recorded the sound of the heartbeat and it is so sweet to listen to it!! I already know he is gonna be so hooked... even if it is a girl! haha! Okay so that's the news.  
And just a quick apology for being the worst blogger on the planet... i will try to be better!
Oh and... does anyone have a good remedy for "morning" ALL DAY sickness?? I can't wait till its over <---- Wishful thinking!!

Holy Cow!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! I'm so excited for you guys!!!!! Summer babies are my fave so far! So you picked a good time to have a kid! Sorry you're sick- for morning sickness- have you tried half a unisom and a B6 vitamin? Ask your doc about it- it helped me a little bit. Good luck!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! being pregnant is so much fun! i agree with the half a unisom and B6...i did that with my 1st, but coulnt with my 2nd because it knocked me out so bad that all i could do was sleep.i recommend a lot of snacking, sleep and preggie pops seemed to help as well. good luck with the sickness! hopefully it wont last too much longer!!:)

congratulations ashley!! soo exciting!! and as for the sickness...who ever called it "morning sickness"? mine lasted FOREVER. every time i went to the doctor they would say "it should be gone by 10 weeks." they next time they said 13 weeks, then 17 weeks...you get the point :) anyway, that part totally sucks, but it's all worth it! congrats again!!

p.s. every time i look at your blog i LOVE your wedding pictures even more!! some of my favorites!

I have to say that the unisom and the b6 really works. I took a whole one ay night. There is also a pill called zofron that your doctor can perscribe to you. You will not be sick after taking it and it is safe. I am so excited that our kids ae going to be little buds.

Heather said...
