7 Weeks

Wow, can you say bloat!? so six weeks on the dot, I developed morning sickness... I have gotten back to my starting weight (according to my scale this morning) 'm keeping a food journal this week so I can really focus on what I am eating and how much nutrients my baby is really getting, I'm very happy to be back to where I started, I was worried with the morning sickness being so bad I would loose more weight, but the pregnancy is still young. I also picked up a composition book, hubby and I are going to start writing to baby for him or her to have when they grow up. :)
I don't have any motivation to do anything other than sleep or sit... and if I sit too long then try to get up I get sick. bleh. it's been a rough week, I'm hoping this passes very soon.

Week 5 (Happy Fourth!)

So this weekend got a little crazy. It was nice to be over that stupid virus though! :) fourth of July was seriously amazing! The fireworks were beautiful, an the company was even better. We spent the fourth at my mom's for some yummy brisket! then came home for our community fireworks show!



On Friday after work, hubby man, and I drove up to the DFW area to spend time with my amazing cousins. We all went to six flags. It was very hot! I couldn't ride any rides (except the river rapids!) but I enjoyed all the company. :) I wish I could see all of my cousins more than once or twice a year, but now with Facebook and text Messaging. Keeping in touch is a lot easier.

Week 4

So, this weekend I have spent the entire two and a half days sitting on my couch. This was not because I am lazy and have no life... Thursday night about ten p.m. I started to get very sick to my stomach. I put it off as morning sickness but since I was only 4 weeks I thought that was just a tad bit early. As the night went on I got zero sleep. It was miserable! Friday morning I took my temp. It was 100.0! This really freaked me out. I had heard when you are pregnant, you shouldn't let your temp get above 101.1... Needless to say, I was starting to worry it was more than a common case of morning sickness. I decided to go to work, (maybe it wasn't in my head)Fridays are normally our busiest day. This day however, we were so slow! It's a very good thing. My lower back started to hurt so bad. I was afraid it was my kidneys from being dehydrated. I had lost 4 whole pounds over night. I called my doctor and made an apt. They confirmed my suspision. I had a stomach virus. Gave me some zofran, and started me on tylonoel to get my fever down. I am feeling much better now, but after three long days of camping in my couch, I am ready for work tomorrow! I need interaction with people. It has been a very eventful weekend so far, I look forward to making my first doctors apt tomorrow! :) I'm so ready to hear my little bean's heart beat!
