Regained email access and 14 weeks of babyness.

My email address hated me for a while, but now I'm back on track and can repost - which I'm doing, quickly, before something else goes wrong. ha.

Had the nuchal at 12 weeks, everything came out being in the lowest percentile, so it's good news, and our little bumblebee wiggled around like a Muppet and wouldn't sit still!! We decided it was bored in there and needed to occupy itself with Muppet dancing. Just like it's daddy.

14 weeks this week! Closer to 15 weeks already! Time flies. Still losing weight, it's a scary thing, I was put on an all-carb diet by my doc and hopefully that will help. I am not as nauseous but can only eat a few bites of things, so I try and eat all day long to the best of my ability. I'm 7 pounds lighter than I was at my wedding almost 2 years ago. Oy.

Other than the near constant pain in my knees and pelvis as everything loosens up, I am feeling pretty good at this point. I wish I could gain some weight so I wasn't nervous, but I think it will get better soon.

Anyway, being positive! Can't wait til 20 weeks, but I'm just glad to have lots of appointments because of my weight loss so I can keep hearing the heartbeat and trucking along. I can't wait to feel the little Muppet-bumblebee squirm around!

Almost week 12!

Monday is the milestone of week 12, and I had 5 days nausea free. Then today happened and it was miserable, but hopefully it will get better soon.

My nuchal and another ultrasound are Tuesday, and then another doctor's visit Thursday, so that's what I have in store. Plus back to school night, a meeting, and lesson planning. If anyone wins the lottery, can I just have like... $100,000? I can pay off debt, invest some, and at least dream of retirement in the future.

It is at LEAST 4 but probably 8 weeks until we know the gender of baby bumblebee, and I can't wait to find out!! Also, I can't wait for a real baby bump, so when I'm bein slow and grumpy in public people won't stare at me like I'm useless. Hah.

'night.

Pressure of doing too much at work got to me - I told my major boss, he was quite nice about the whole thing. So I announced it on facebook, to influx of far away congrats which is nice.

Anyway Monday is 12 weeks... I almost made it! Hah.
Feeling pretty good. Tired as hell, not sleeping more than a few hours at a time, but I'm able to eat and get through the day which is a BIG improvement.

More after my 12 week nuchal on the 13th.

Round ligament pain. Look it up. Freaking OUCH. I tend to get these jabs of burning pain when I get up too fast from bed or roll over quickly. I wish I could remember they occur and roll up slower but I never seem to remember. Anyway. Ouch.

Work started back up today and I realized it's very hard to work without telling, especially in the beginning. I was meant to move 98 huge textbooks today, and had to get out of it. Not as easy as you might think.

Anyway the time has come to tell the bosses, And move on with it so I can tell my closer friends at work! I will stay positive - I'm very nervous, it's only my 2nd year at this job. I'm sure it will be fine.

As for bambino, I haven't had nausea much at all except as soon as I wake up, I am absolutely exhausted, and did I mention the round ligament pain? Getting into a better stage. 11 weeks yesterday!

September!!

Oh how I love the fall. Cooler weather, sparkling sunrises, leaves changing, pumpkin picking, apples galore. September isn't quite autumn but I cannot wait!!

Also, in two weeks I can go public with bumblebee, this blog, and all things baby! I'm waiting til 12 weeks, and then telling my big boss and moving on.

Morning sickness is better although now it has changed to ravenous hunger. I wake up and feel like my stomach is eating itself. How can people not know they're pregnant? I feel like every day is a new set of ridiculous symptoms that scream baby.
