Still Feeling Good!

Ya know, I am probably gonna be eating those words in about a week or two. So far my pregnancy has been uneventful. I have my moments when I am tired and other symptoms kick in. The most bothersome symptom I have during my pregnancies is the dreaded morning sickness. Of course in the past I have always started feeling the icky feeling at around 7-8 weeks. I am at 6 weeks, 4 days today! So, if I am an unfortunate mom-to-be I will get it soon. I am hoping that it passes over me and my baby is still okay. I will be going to the Dr. soon. I usually have to start going by 7-8 weeks. That is generally when they start seeing patients at my stage of pregnancy. I am so excited to hear that little heartbeat to reassure me everything is going well. This is the part where I get nervous and worried. Because I have had 2 miscarriages in the past, I am more cautious of every ache or pain. The only things I feel right now are some pinching sensations in my right abdomen. Those are mainly due to the stretching and pulling of the ligaments that surround the uterus. I read somewhere that means that the baby is where it is supposed to be. I sure hope so! I can honestly say that I am actually nervous about the pregnancy overall. Not a bad nervous, but just knowing and then again not knowing what to expect.

I have decided to not push myself beyond belief. Yeah, I may have lots to do around here, but right now my baby is my concern. I will do what I can but then I will have to delegate responsibility to the kids. They are actually happy to help. I think once I get past the 3 month mark things will be different. I will be out of the woods and hopefully my energy will be regained. Today I have to take Hannah to the Dr. She has some awful rash on her arms. It isn't healing on its own so we need to figure out what it is. On top of that it is raining. Yeah, not the best traveling weather, huh?


Well, I am off to get things ready. Bye!
