Thanks all for the well wishes... it's exciting times for us indeed.
Morning Sickness: well, let me tell you... it's not limited to the morning and it's guised as throwing up all the time. I wish. I would say that 80% of the hours that I'm awake I feel nausea - even to the point where I run to the bathroom and expect the inevitable... and then nothing. Well not nothing... a trucker burp.... a scary, shake the pictures on the walls burp. lol and then it's over until the next wave.
I can't complain I guess - I recognize that some women have it way worse than I do... but I'm not used to all of this exhaustion and nausea.
We're into week 9 now.... 31 more to go! lol Feels like forever from now.
We just celebrated my 32nd bday - low key... which was perfect. Aju's 33rd is just 2 short weeks away. No idea what we're going to do about celebrating for him. Perhaps I'll have some energy back by the 2nd trimester.
... but it's supposed to be a secret! lol like I can keep a secret ;)
We are unofficially 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant - with our first prenatal appointment on July 16th.
We are unbelievably excited!
Can anyone suggest some good reading to go along with the process? Right now I have "What to Expect When You're Expecting" and "The Pregnancy Journal".
Thanks, Nanette
