Last Friday I finally went to the doctor. That was a blast. Talk about feeling violated, but I've always been a very private and modest person, but I've been told that's going to change quickly with the pregnancy. The doctor gave me my official due date. Drum roll please.........May 14, 2009. I can't believe that somewhere around that date I'm going to be a parent. I'm still trying ot figure out how to take care of myself and a husband (ok honestly, Ryan takes care of me) and now a baby. I'm so excited, but so nervous. Anyway, back to the doctor. Any of you that have been pregnant know that you have to pee in a cup. Well from this they called me on Monday and told me that I had a UTI. Fun, huh. Well this is where the part comes that I know I'm pregnant. I ask the lady on the other line if the checked to see if I was really pregnant because I just couldn't believe it. There was a long silence, and then I said well I took four pregnancy tests and they were all positive but I'm still just not sure. This is the response I got, "Honey, if four pregnancy tests say you're pregnant, then you're pregnant."
Next I've finally experienced morning sickness. I make it sound like I wanted it, but I guess I had thought since I hadn't had it yet I wouldn't, boy was I wrong! I missed all of my classes and all of my work this week because of being sick. I'm happy to report I think I'm finally free. It's liberating to know that I can walk around and kiss my husband without turning green. I talked to my mom today and she was overjoyed that she could finally talk to me without me saying I had to go cause I was sick. I'm so thankful for friends and my mom for all of the ideas of getting the sickness to go way.
I have nothing more to report about the baby. From the website that emails me, it is the size of a grape. That's exciting. It's hard to believe that in just seven or eight months it will be a little bundle of joy. We're very excited to have whatever it may be.
