He/She is finally starting to look like a BABY!!! The ultrasound today was so amazing!! Seeing the head, limbs, movement, heartbeat, etc....it's finally starting to feel real. There's a baby growing inside of me, and I couldn't be any happier. I've dreamt about this moment my whole life, and its finally happening. So very exciting!
Now that i'm preggo, I find that I have alot of spare time. During this time, i've been reading lots of baby books which i've found very helpful. However, i'm not sure I believe everything I read. Can I really have 2 alcoholic drinks a day?...WOW, that sounds FABULOUS...but I DONT think its a good for the baby. AND can eating too many nuts or peanutbutter make the baby have a higher risk for developing peanut allergies...oh nooooo! :( I guess i'll have to cut back on english muffins with pb every morning...LOL. I'd also like to thank the doctor who wrote one of the books i'm reading which includes "Tips for Dad". The first tip was to clean the house without being asked. SWEET!! Second tip (for people with pets) to take over all pet duties (take the dog out, feed him, bath him, etc)...I'M LOVING THIS!! So needless to say, Derek has been VERY helpful, and I appreciate it. :)
Morning Sickness...??? What is that??? Yes, i've been very lucky NOT to experience this thus far. I KNOW, I should thank my lucky stars. :) Other than feeling tired sometimes, i'm feeling really GOOD. Only other symptom I have (and not even sure this is considered a symptom)...BUT I constantly dream of DESSERTS/SWEETS. Very odd but quite comical. Some of my dreams have included croissants (dipped in chocolate), apple cider donuts, cupcakes filled with candy, peanutbutter brownies...etc. I'm sure they will continue, and i'll gladly keep you updated on these delicious creations that keep popping into my head at night. :) :) My sister-in-law thinks this means we're having a GIRL! Either way, we'll be very happy...BOY or GIRL...just want a healthy baby.
