When will food taste good again???

Oh my word the nausea! I thought I had a good handle on it, and BAM out of no where today was the roughest. Wheat thins, mints, hundreds of glasses of water, milk, bread, NOTHING would make it go away! Everything tastes the same..so bland. THE MADNESS! ha ha.

While I'm whining..I usually consider my hike to work a blessing in disguise..it's my chance to have fresh air for a few minutes and it's been my extra dose of excerise for quite some time now. But feeling as rough as I did today that walk would never end! For those of you who don't know..I work in the Doctor's Building on Pendleton, and I have to park on the backside of Mathis Auditorium, which usually I'm positive about, but today I would have gladly taken a scooter!

Moving on, my doctor's appointment (dreaded physical) went really smoothly yesterday.I was so hesitate about the new lady I was seeing, but she was so professional. I was told I was where I needed to be, officially at 7 weeks and 3 days today, and they kept my due date for Jan. 23. Our hearbeat ultrasound will be July 13th...which I cannot wait for Aaron and I to experience that together! Yay!

I also want to tell everyone who left a comment on my blog, THANK YOU! I think I'm still in shock but super excited of course!

On a more positive note..I had a wonderful hair day today! ;) Must go fry some chicken for my hunnie!

Yay for Baby!

Soooo...We're having a baby!!! Yay! Now I can blog about my baby and quit stalking other peoples! Just kidding!...

I'll be seven weeks on Sunday the 7th! We found out at 4 weeks and I managed to keep my mouth shut! My sister swore she knew last week or so because my face looked swollen. Our families are super excited, and so are we!

Here's the low down, the elephant sized purple colored pre natal vitamins I've been taking make me feel like poo. I realized they were making me sick moreso than anything. I now wake up and drink a glass of water, eat a few saltines and pop a mint in my mouth while I get ready in the mornings. Then I'm chugging a Sprite on the way out the door and eat about a whole pack of Saltines when I get to work.

I'm usually the energizer bunny and am always, ALWAYS doing something, and now it's all I can do to get out of the bed in the mornings and to not hit the couch the minute I get home at night. I'm just so tired!

I went to the doctor last week and I weighed 132.6, which means I've already put on a little since the last time I went just for my neurology appts. I have a physical on Monday so I can't wait to see what I'll weigh then. My favorite two things, Coke and Chocalate now taste like the bottom of my foot, which is God's gift to me to get healthy! I've been eating Saltines, and carrots and haven't fried anything in the past week or so.. I'm trying to slowly replace all the bad eating habits I have. I guess the "metallic" taste in your mouth is going to hold true for me.

Learning how to sit still and rest and let people help me is going to be the biggest challege.. Becca, Kristin, Melissa and all the other mommies reading my blog, please fill free to share your wisdom!

Love you!
