Erin+Eric = new name

My cousin Barbara in Timmins suggested we should make up a baby name that contains letters from both our names. So she suggested Carine for a girl and Enrico for a boy. Erin likes Carine ;-) It might land on Erin's list of baby names at some point. Any other ideas by anyone? If so, please leave a comment.

15 weeks pregnant

Going by the projected due date on July 21st that we obtained from the ultrasound appointment, Erin is 15 weeks pregnant today. YEAH!

We have legs, arms and a heartbeat! PHEWFERS

TremblayBaby-22Jan2007-14weeks, originally uploaded by actionhamster.

It's official, there is a life in my belly! Today was the first Ultrasound.
Eric, Julie and I saw the little one, it was incredible! Jules even shed a few tears (shh don't tell her I told you, she likes to act all tough but she is a softie when it comes to being an aunt!).
The heartrate was 155(hbm), some non-scientific speculators would say its a boy....
The fetus was 8.5cm long from head to rump/bum not including legs and arms, about 3.4 inches. My placenta is in the front, we saw its hand, well only four fingers. The wee one is 14 weeks and 2 days old and we are due July 21/07. We even got to see its legs running, it was wild! A future runner or skater perhaps, Eric says a future Steve Yzerman! Eric is a proud papa! Here is the picture, kind of skeleton like but beautiful none the less! We are very happy everything is A-OK!

Erin is 12 Weeks Pregnant

It's Wednesday....you know what that means..... Erin is 12 weeks pregnant. Well, at least thats what we're guessing ;)

Revised estimate: Erin's due date

Well, I sat down today and did some calculating and I think we made an error calculating Erin's due date. I think the conception date was about Oct 25th. So that makes her 12 weeks pregnant this Wednesday, not 11. Oh well, that's just my guess. We'll know more on Jan 22nd after the 1st ultrasound. (*smile*)

Erin's belly is getting BIGGER

This week, I went away to Cornwall for 3 days for a meeting and when I came I swear Erin's belly was bigger. She's definitely showing now. I'm going to try and get a picture soon ;-)

Officially 10 weeks

It's Wednesday: 10 weeks pregnant!

Almost 10 weeks

Hey baby bloggers
I am 10 weeks pregnant this Wed. I have my first Doctor's apt. this Tuesday at 1pm, mainly its to ask any questions, do a recce-checky and book the first ultra-sound. I am feeling great, no more queasy (it was probably as Eric said: work and getting back to the real world!). Eric and I got our first goodies off of "Free-Cycle" a diaper genie, bath toys, bath tub, jolly jumper infant holder, books and some pregnant magazines. Tiff also gave me some mags and both Tiffany and Siobhan got me maternity shirts and Sio gave me a ton of clothes, thanks!

New name suggestion

We met this nice girl from Malaysia on our trip to Italy. Her name was Alianna. Erin likes that name. What do others thinks?

9 weeks pregnant

Yup...it's Wednesday today. Erin is 9 weeks pregnant! Doing well. Almost no morning sickness. She felt kinda 'queezy' Tuesday but she thinks that might be from having to go back to work after our vacation. HAHA!
