New Drugs...New Life- I hope

So my doctor finally prescribed me Zofran for my nausea. I am getting it today and I will let you know how it works, but I am praying that it does wonders and I can go back to the "normal" day-to-day.

And maybe I can eat regular food again- instead of toast, rice, pasta and crackers everyday =P

I'm sure you knew it wouldn't happen

Okay, so we didn't paint at all this weekend- big surprise! I have been so sick all weekend and I probably won't do anything now until my second trimester. 

If only I could trade bodies with someone- I am sick of being sick and I still have forever to go! Oh yeah- and my online classes start tomorrow =( 

UGH!!

6 weeks to go...

and counting! I am halfway to the second trimester and I am so anxious already. I know after that 12 weeks marker I will feel a huge weight is lifted off my shoulders but until then, I will continue to be the worry wort that I can't help being. 12 days until our first doctor's appointment and we will get to hear the heartbeat then- wow! I still can't believe this is happening. I am waiting for any moment when I may wake up or I will realize that I am not really having a baby. I mean I know I am 26, but I still feel too young to be a mom. 

So, as OCD as I am, I am already painting the guest room- which will be a baby room later on. Well, I actually think I may end up doing more of the telling people what to do than the actual work =) hehe... I am pregnant you know! I have to work that angle as much as I can!

Oh yeah, and I am so exhausted! I was so sick yesterday I didn't think I was going to make it through the night. But now I am better... just really tired! I feel so worthless right now. And I am pretty sure I am already showing a bit! What gives? 

Enough blabbering for now, this is going to be a lazy weekend for me.

Has time just suddenly stopped?

So I am pretty sure that there has been some sort of splice in the time continuum and time has pretty much stopped as we know it! I mean, I feel like the days go by so slow and all I can think about is the baby (or embryo). I seriously think I may be addicted to my unborn child already =)

Sept 4 is our first doctor's appointment and I am so nervous already. I feel like this huge weight is on my shoulders until I am past the 'high risk for miscarriage phase' is over (12 wks). I am sure this is normal, but god who knew that having a baby would already be this time consuming?!

Anyhoo, I have not been as nauseous as I was last week ( I am sure that will change)- but I have been completely and utterly exhausted everyday-- nap time should be a workplace necessity. So, again, I find myself already anxious for the second trimester when I will feel better and actually be able to eat on a regular basis.

Someone please make time speed up!

In the Beginning...

WEEK 4

So now that everyone knows about our little "marshmallow" (thanks Auntie Cissie for that one), this post is the first of the many I will publish to document my belly's journey into the realm of pregnancy and the growth that comes with it =)

I hope everyone has a good weekend- I will be resting and sleeping a lot!! 

A Bun in the Oven

So, it's finally here!!! Joey and I are having a baby (rather I am having it--- he is supporting me =])
We found out we were pregnant on August 11, 2008 and we are still in shell shock. Our first doctor's appointment is on September 4, so keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

We are so excited to be sharing this news with our friends and family and we will keep you all updated as much as possible. I will be adding more pictures soon too.

Please leave any and all comments/advice/or any other info you think we need to have to prepare for our growing baby (who is only the size of a poppyseed right now!).

Love,
Anna
