Baby Bump

Ok, I can't take it any more (I was trying to wait until the end of the first trimester, but I've never been known to keep a pregnancy under wraps), I have to put it out there-I'm preggo! Yay! Since the day we found out I have been a ball of nerves! With the boys I wasn't nervous at all, I continued to work out like normal and didn't really feel all that different. But with this one I have been so nervous something will go wrong. And with our wonderful military health care, I can't get in for my first appointment until March 3rd! I'll be 12 weeks by that point for crying out loud! I mean I did drag my feet before I called to schedule my appointment because I didn't want to "get ahead of myself" or anything, but still! So needless to say I still haven't heard the heart beat or anything and it's driving me nuts! I did go get blood work done and at least confirm the pregnancy, so at least I've got that going for me. But aside from being nervous I have been exhausted and nauseous. I had to completely give up coffee-I tried to switch to decaf, but it just made me feel like I was going to barf. Then pretty much all day I feel like I'm going to barf. I mean, it hasn't really affected my appetite, strangely enough. I'm always hungry! So, if I go too long without eating, I feel sick, then about 30 minutes after I eat, I feel sick. It's a no win situation. However, after sending out my email to all of you wonderful friends and family I received some great words of encouragement that makes all this bleckiness worth it-you all say these are signs this will be a girl. :) Let's hope! I will update my blog with my progress. Belly shots may have to wait a bit though. With both boys I made sure I started out the pregnancy in really good shape and at my pre-preggo weight-well, not so much with this one. I'm feeling a little chubby, so I will NOT be posting any early belly shots!
