So here it is. The first belly shot of many I hope. I can't believe after seeing this picture how swollen up I am at only 5 1/2 weeks. I guess I could blame it on the holidays and get away with it considering my little offspring is presumably the size of a peanut. Yesterday was pretty uneventful. New Year's Day seemed like any other day. It was the kids' last full day off before returning to school today. I think in a way they were actually ready to go back. Now I have to get used to having just my lil ones here at home again. It does take a day or two to get readjusted.
People have been asking me how I am feeling so far. Well, considering I only have known about my pregnancy for a few days, I would say I am fine. I am still very early in it and I haven't had any major symptoms...yet. I am very prone to the whole morning sickness trauma. I had it with Abby, Ethan, and Noah. With Mikey and Hannah I could probably count on my hands the number of time I actually was sick. I hope that this time is like that. I could handle the aches and pains of an 8 lb. baby kicking me every way possible, but I hate feeling sick. I know it is a good sign that things are going well, but I could do without it and still have a healthy baby. Chris is excited and we are "officially" starting to pick out names. I feel like it is a little premature to do such a thing. I also thought that maybe sharing the news of my pregnancy at this point would be considered bad luck. I am taking a chance in hopes that everything will be fine.
I can only say that I am feeling tired and dizzy at times, but other than that my appetite is fine and I feel good overall. I plan on posting belly shots each month so you can see how much "we" are growing. I guess for now the wait has begun!
