We are PREGNANT! I am in my 18th week of pregnancy and am doing great. All doc appts have gone well and I've had no morning sickness, can you believe it? I've been tired a lot and get headaches more frequently than I ever have and my pelvis is sore. I've been reading a lot about being pregnant and labor and taking care of a baby from two books that our parents have sent: What to Expect When You're Expecting and Great Expectations. (Thanks, Moms and Dads!)
And I am only one of many women at our school that have recently had babies or is pregnant. The recruiter at our school, Kim, who is 8 months along, has told me that in this past year there have been 8 pregnancies! God is so good! We are really blessed to have so many new moms to go to if we need anything.
Justin and I will have our baby here in Budapest. Because of so many births recently and in years past, we know that the medical care for being pregnant and giving birth is safe and good. Our OB-GYN works at a clinic called First Med and the birth will take place at a hospital called Telki Hospital. We really like our doctor because he is a very sweet man and very caring. Surprisingly, we've had four ultrasounds already! They do them far more often here than in the States. It has been so great to see our baby growing inside me! Here are three pics:
