Week 11. . . .


Well I made it on my first trip. We just got back from Detroit, Michigan yesterday. I made the eight hour drive feeling fine. I was a little concerned about it seeing that I get car sick on top of being pregnant but it was ok. Those Reglan pills my doctor gave me sure came in handy. It's finally week 11. It seems like it is just dragging by. I want to be done with this first trimester so badly that I think I'm making the time seem slower. I still have the same symptoms. I need to eat alot. I'm not showing in the mornings. I can tell, but no one else can. After I eat you sure can tell though. I get supper bloated after I eat anything but unfortunately it goes away. I know there's something going on though. TMI-I know, but my boobs are bigger and my pants are a little snugger. Guess that's how it goes. I'm also beginning to wonder when other people started to show with their first baby. Guess I will have to ask around more! :) I'm ready ready ready to feel this baby. My next appointment is next Monday. Just a check up to weigh me and listen to the heartbeat. I can't wait to hear that heartbeat again! It is very comforting! I haven't been reading to much. Just keeping up with my "what to expect" book as far as weeks go. I'm trying to eat as healthy as I can although the doctor said the first 12 weeks are survival weeks and to eat whatever I felt like I could handle. So I snack alot. No caffeine though. None! Well maybe a sip that's it. I've had the weirdest belching since I got pregnant. I know it's gross but that is one of my major symptoms. I'll sure take that over getting sick though. I've got my nursery ideas in my mind, but I think I'm just going to wait on buying things until I know what this baby is. Only 7 more weeks!!

Beside baby news, things are good at home. Same ole, same ole! Rich is leaving for the Master's golf tournament Saturday. Not looking forward to being husbandless for 5 days. When you get pregnant you seem to need them to just be there so much more! I think it will be rough on me! We are looking for a new car. We've only had one for over 6 months. It's been fine because I work from home and Rich is usually home on and off all day, but we are gonna need something before October. Some kind of SUV, hopefully the Cadillac we want :). Family is good. Life is a blessing. :) That's my update for now.

Sounds like an exciting time! Get ready for some major belly touching when you start to show, its like your belly becomes a magnet for people! Brad's cousin wore this little pin that said "thank you for not touching my belly" it was pretty funny! I can't wait to see you!!! maybe sometime soon!

I'll have to find it. I just searched baby furniture and design. It's hard to find. Are you designing!
