Pregnancy *UPDATE*

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. Thanks again for the overwhelming support I received

when I posted my original message, " Second pregnancy-Struggling with

moral issues " .

I've been very busy for the past couple weeks bringing Tarok home

from the hospital and getting us both settled in (We're staying with

my mom for a little while).

I'm here to confirm that I am pregnant. And I will definitely be

keeping my baby. I spoke to Tarok's genetecist. She says that there

is no prenatal testing for this type of Mito. She really couldn't

give me any more information than I already had. I looked at my

little boy and thought about what I happy little guy he is despite

all he's gone through and I decided that no child of mine would

rather just not be. So I'm going through with this pregnancy and

hoping for a healthy baby. If that's not what I get, then I guess God

has other plans for us.

I am now about six weeks pregnant (I think). I already look the way I

did at six months last time! I've even gained 15 pounds already! and

with the 15 I never lost from my last pregancy I figure If I eat

healthy and excercise a lot I might just move my weight around

instead of gaining more (yeah I know it doesn't really work that

way. )

When I became pregnant with Tarok I knew his name the day I found

out. It took me the whole pregnancy to finally narrow my girl's names

down to two. I never did settle on one. This time I came up with a

girl's name immediately (Isabel Noreen) and I can't for the life of

me figure out a boy's name. So, I think that I will be having a

little Isabel this fall. Also, I heard that if you break out crazy

with lots of zits that it will be a girl, and am I ever covered in

'em! I can wash my face and be greasy again by the time I'm finished

toweling dry!

Well, time to go hook Tarok up to a feed. I look forward to sharing

this experience with you all as so many of you have shared your

stories with me.

with love,
