Bec is PREGNANT!!!!


I found out on Christmas Eve morning. This is obviously a HUGE surprise. I had no intention. One "oops" and here I am...again. ;)


For those of you who were around for my previous pregnancy last year, you know what some of the concerns might be. I am getting ready to see a specialist as soon as possible and I am on my "baby asprin therapy" already. Doing everything I can to monitor and pray that all goes well.


If it does, my estimated due date is 08/31/05. BUT, I highly doubt I'll make it that far. Jas is hoping for HIS Birthday baby on 08/11/04. LOL


We are excited. Ty will slowly come around. He was none too thrilled when we told him, but he's working on it.

Congratulations Bec!! You will stay in my prayers for a good, safe and healthy pregnancy!

Maybe Ty is not wanting to be "thrilled' right now for fear of his what happened before. give him time!

Hugs and congrats again!

AWWW BEC! Yay! Ty will be alright too. He's older than Dylan so it's a bigger shock to him especially with all that's been going on lately, but I think this is just what you all need. Something to bind you all together. What great news!

Yes, Deb. When he FINALLY wanted to talk to us (he was at first so mad and nasty and angry that we left him alone and said "come talk when you're ready) his FIRST comment was "Why am I not good enough?" and then after that "What if the baby has asthma and eczema like me?" and then "What if what happened with you and William happens again?"


A lot of fears to sort through on TOP of proof that his mom still has sex with Dad which is very upsetting to him. (He still doesn't like that DH "messes with" me, in his words)


Thank you. You're right and I am praying he'll come around. He's going to make such a great big brother. He's soooo good with little kids. Loves them all.

I guess "not enough" to me is MORE than enough to get preggo. LOL!!!


Thank you for the congrats! I was traumatized all last week with worry that I might be, but it sure doesn't take long to get on board w/the idea! I feel like I am glowing with excitement!!!!

Oh, Beck!!! What a blessing! Keep us updated as to your progress...I am very excited for you and your family. I do remember last year in all you went through, you are in my thoughts and my prayers. The 8/31 (labor day weekend) is my son's birthday, I remember being in the hospital while all my friends and my sister were at the Jimmy Buffett concert and they all met up with each other and keep calling the hospital to see if I had him.. What a nice memory.

I have to say that I look pretty danged good for a 5.5 month pregnant woman. Only 6 pounds gained and all of it is the belly. I'm very happy that I can still look like me and feel good about myself. I do hate the whole pregnant look. Never thought it was a "great" look, but I do feel beautiful sometimes, especially when Shane touches my face or my belly and takes my hand and kisses it. And Dylan never fails to say, "mommy, you're pretty".

I'll be sure to get some pics out to ya. Lots of people are looking forward to seeing that and I'll make some people happy when I surprise them with emails of me.

I'm glad Ty came out and just layed it all out there. He needed to do that and congrats for understanding his concerns. I'm sure he's just frustrated because he's been sick and is worried about the baby being sick too and you know, that's good. It shows he really cares. And you know it's normal to wonder why mom "needs" a new baby. I'm sure if D were a few years older, he'd feel that way. And I'm looking for him to display some jealousy later after Emily is born. Just hang in there as you are doing so well and keep reassuring him that this baby is not going to take anyone's place. It's just another person to love and that will love him and look up to him. He knows everyone loves him. And he'll come around. He has plenty of time. Glad you are happy about the pregnancy. How's J?

J's fine. He's excited too. LOVES little kids. Grinned from ear to ear when I explained what "two lines" meant. He's only worried about finances. It's tough to make it on one income,and we were just getting ready to buy a house next spring. Now we'll be buying much less house to free up finances, and in this city, getting a nice place in a decent neighborhood/school district is a trick.
