update on the pregnancy

So, I didn't realize I haven't posted anything in nearly a month. Wow, that's kinda crazy, huh? You must be drowning in suspense, wondering what has happened to me? hahaha. Okay back to reality. Um, well since the last time I wrote, I went to the doctor's for my first prenatal appointment. Found out I had a swollen ovary, which was causing the pain. The pain, thank goodness, is gone now. I have occasional cramps, but I think that's probably just normal stretching. So let's see, what else? Well, other than weeks 5-7, I haven't had much nausea (knock on wood, where's some wood??? AGH!). If I eat too much, I feel sick. Luckily there's an easy solution to that...I don't eat too much. Last night I slipped. Had an icecream sundae from friendly's. I think the combination of eating too much and too much dairy was the killer. I'm still suffering ill-effects from that stupid icecream.


I was always an odd one. So instead of morning sickness, I'm plagued with acne! Like, seriously I can't believe so many pimples can exist on one face. I'm trying to do what I can, but I'm limited in what products I'm allowed to use. Basically....soap. bleh. So, instead of puking my guts out, I'm wanting to walk around with a bag on my head. I guess some would say that's a good trade-off, but those people probably never had to look like a pepperoni pizza face. hehehe. I'd almost rather vomiting. :) Almost.


Um, um, oh I'm sure everyone by now has seen the ultrasound pic from 9 weeks, but it's cute so here it is again:


And next Wednesday I have my next prenatal appointment. This time with a midwife! I'd really like to go that route, so hopefully we hit it off. Unlike with my regular doctor, who practically blew me off. I'm just a tad bitter about that. hehehe.
Um, I think that about covers things. 10 weeks today, so um, 30 more to go? Around there anyway. I think it's nap time. The one good thing about the icecream making me sick? I had to call out of work today, which means naps and catching up on emails. Yey! Okay, until next time, adios amigos.
