Wow...A LOT can change in a week.
Yeah, I was really, really sick this week. Today the Dr told me I needed to go to the Hospital for fluids & anti-nausea meds. I'm so thankful Greenville ER was fast - they got me in & out and home to my boy. Cole was so sad today when we told him I had to go to the hospital.
They found a UTI when I was in the ER today, so I'm on an antibiotic for that. Pumped me full of fluids and Zofram.
I'm feeling a little better this afternoon, and, praying it keeps up. I desperately need to feel semi-normal and be able to take care of my family & my work.
We are getting our first sonogram on Wednesday. I'm excited to get an exact due date :)

It's weird that I feel so much different this time around. With my first pregnancy I was SICK before I even found out, and, felt terrible for about 4 months. But, this time I actually feel good so far. I did heed the advice of my Dr and start eating several small snacks a day to try to help fend off any nausea. I'm really scared of weight gain this time since I am much heavier now than I was when I got pregnant with Cole...so I'm shooting for those snacks to be a wee bit healthier than last time!

I have been really tired, but still felt like I needed to keep trying to exercise before I just get completely out of the habit. Rather than walking today too, I just did a 35 minute session of Yoga. It was good, and, it gave me a bit more energy (briefly), but my muscles are paying for it! I would love to keep this up at least 3 times a week for awhile if I could. I was WAY out of shape last pregnancy, so it would be cool to experience it a bit different this time.

Exciting News for the Lenczycki Family!

We found out this weekend that we are having another baby!

Just like with Cole, I found out very early along in pregnancy this time too. It's wonderful to know early so I can begin to change my eating habits, but it's so hard to wait for that first sonogram :( This time we decided we had waited a long time, and, were really excited - so we were not going to wait to tell anyone. We let Cole call my Parents & Grandmas, and, then we went & saw Jason's Parents. Everyone is excited, just like we are.

So far I feel tired, but good. Last time I was already sick...so I'm hoping for it to be a little easier on that side. Before I could lay on the couch all day if I wasn't feeling well.....this time I have a VERY active 4 year old to keep up with!

Where did the last month go?

It has been over a month since my last post. At first I thought "wow, how did I not post in that long?" but...it was probably because we have had a hard month around here :( The good news is...things are *hopefully* turning around a bit. We have lots to be thankful for right now, and, still lots that need prayer. Cole has had a hard time since Jason went back to work, and, it seems to be most negatively effecting his school days. We are hopeful that will turn around & he will get back into his normal routine quickly! Jason is also really feeling led to look into career options. He has always loved his job, but, being off for 12 weeks gave him a real desire to be home more. There are a few ideas floating in his head right now...although I don't know how close he is nailing anything down. And, we have countless unspoken needs :) If you think about us this week, we would appreciate your prayers!
