morning sickness now?

oh - my stomach feels so wierd!! yesterday everything i put into it just seemed to upset it... today it was okay for most of the day - but once i got home it felt kind of upset... i ate a small snack and then i fell asleep for a little - maybe about 30 min. - and i was STARVING! so i made some perogies and green beans... and it feels good to have food in my stomach - but it doesn't feel settled.

PLEASE don't tell me i'm getting morning sickness now!?

3rd appointment!

so we had our 3rd appointment on wednesday and it went well.... nothing big happened - i had to have some tests done and i got to hear the heartbeat again which was so nice! my FNP said that it was really easy to find the heartbeat - and it was strong!

my next appointment is in 4 weeks - and we can choose to have a blood test to check for birth defects - it doesn't say a definative yes or no... it just gives percentages that your child may or may not have any of them... i don't know if we are going to do it or not - i guess we have 4 weeks to decide.

and now i will also begin seeing all the doctors in the practice. that way i get to at least meet all the doctors that might deliver our little peanut!

i had some lower back pain yesterday.... it started around 10:30 at school and lasted all day... it hurt pretty bad - i took some tylonol - and it didn't do anything. i woke up this morning and it feels a whole lot better.

other than that... everything is great - i'm ready to be out of the first trimester.... just a few more days!! :)

maternity clothes

so adam and i drove to woodstock last night (about an hour away) to hit up the old navy maternity section.... we almost got stuck in traffic because of construction - but we made it in time... we were there at 8:15 pm and they close at 9:00 pm

they didn't have much... i heard that they were closing down their maternity line - thats why i really wanted to hit it up a little early. also i feel VERY bloated (baby bloat) and pants are fitting tight and my shirts are definately tight around my tummy...

i got 2 pairs of jeans - and let me tell you.... they are the most comfortable pairs of jeans that i have EVER put on! and 3 shirts - one purple, one black, and one white. jeans were on sale ($20 - they were half price!) so this is added to my black pants and khakis pants i already got at target (on clearance for $8!) so glad i've been able to find things on sale! i know maternity clothes are a necessity - but i hate to have to spend a lot of money on them!

okay folks.... next week is my 12 week appt!

stay tuned.....
