5 weeks

I am 5 weeks today. Still feeling pretty good, just tired most of the time. I go to bed between 9 and 10, and am getting plenty of rest.
I read that little specs heart is forming and we should be able to hear the heartbeat by ultrasound this week. So cool to think about what's going on.

All of our family now knows, with the exception of a few people that we haven't been able to get a hold of. I've gotten a few offers of family to come out and help after the baby is born - and I told Jeremy that I would be taking people up on those offers!! We are so blessed to have a big family, who is also supportive and excited.

I've been thinking more and more about just changing doctors. I've talked to a few people and gotten some opinions, and really think that this week I may go ahead and schedule an appointment with another doctor. My fear is that I'll spend a few months finding the right doctor, but I guess I would rather do that than be unhappy with one. I've heard really good things about a few doctors at OU and Mercy. There is also a doctor near my office, and right across the street from the Healthplex, who I'm also considering. I will probably call one of them this week to schedule and appointment.

Yesterday, I went to Kohl's to spend a gift card I had gotten for my birthday. I walked out with some socks, a new pair of shoes and a photo board. I texted my mom and told her that I managed to get away and didn't go near the baby section. She asked how I managed that, and I told her that I just didn't walk by it. Right now I don't have the urge to by anything. I think it is probably too soon. My mom expressed that she is so excited and keeps thinking about the fact that she will be a grandma.

Life is good!
