Pregnancy Update

Well... first things first. I am alive. I heard of morning sickness and figured I could handle that once a day. Try, at 7 weeks I was so sick everyday all day I literally wanted to die. I kept having to remind myself that I wanted this child. Even after Zofran and B vitamins and Unisom and eating every 2 hours (and barfing it all up), nothing has helped. I am still sick everyday although it has lightened up within the last 3 weeks or so. I still throwup about once a week and nights come early as I get barfy around 7:30. I am still keeping the pharmasutical companies in business (You're welcome, Lamar :) with my 8 hour Zofran and Phenergan regimin, but I am alive and feeling better.


Feeling better and worse at the same time...getting bigger and my body is diong things I never imagined...like growing!! 12 weeks

15 weeks

19 weeks
Don't mind that I look like a troll.

We also found out this past Monday that my suspisions were correct. We are having a girl.
She's as onery as her mother but finally cooperated in showing the ultrasound tech her parts. :)
Everytime they would try to get a picture of one of her legs, arms, etc she would roll away. Finally towards the end, we got some good shots.


These have really made this come to life for me. To see her move in there and now feeling her move, has given me more hope that I can make it through while feeling like garbage.


Here she is in all her glory...the last shot of the day. She didn't want to show us her face. Even though she's still kinda mutant...she is so beautiful to me. Dan and I are excited that we are almost halfway to meeting our little girl.
