Baby Sorenson

I have created this blog to keep all of you posted on the progress of my pregnancy as well as my thoughts and feelings throughout my pregnancy. I am thrilled to be able to share this experience with all of you and appreciate all of the support provided by our family and friends.



Aaron and I found out about our little miracle on June 10th about a half an hour before my sister-in-law, Rachael, came over for dinner. I decided to take a pregnancy test while Aaron was out working in the garden. There was the faintest second pink line and I wasn't sure if I was imaging the line or not so I called Aaron in from the garden. Aaron saw the line, too, but we still weren't sure if it was dark enough to mean anything. We both started crying tears of joy and decided not to say anything to Rachael (sorry Rachael) until we were absolutely certain that I was preganant. So all through dinner we kept sneaking each other giddy smiles hoping Rachael wouldn't catch on that anything was suspicious. Over the next few days, I think I took a total of five pregnancy tests and each one came out positive! By now, we were positive I was pregnant and were both very excited.



After the trip to the doctor, we determined my due date to be February 20, 2008. As of now, I am almost seventeen weeks along. As of week sixteen, the length of the baby is approximately
4.5 inches and the baby weighs about 3.5 ounces, or approximately the size of an avacado. By now, the baby is fully formed with a lot of growing left to do and it is possible to determine if the baby is a boy or a girl (although Aaron and I are not going to find out).
