PREGNANT!

Well, we found a couple of weeks ago that we're PREGNANT!

I should not have been surprised by the news ... we were a little "careless" the past month, even though I really wasn't enthusiastic about getting pregnant until AFTER my trip to New York during Thanksgiving.

I was hoping my nausea would hold off until after the trip, however, my nausea has kicked in full force and just about full time. This happened a lot earlier than when I was pregnant for Ainsley (if I am remembering correctly). The nausea is stronger and I had pregnancy symptoms right away. My breasts immediately became sore and they get even more sore, which is difficult to imagine. Sore breasts were definitely not something I dealt with during my pregnancy with Ainsley.

I went to my first doctor's appointment a few days ago. I had to pick a new doctor (insurance reasons), but fortunately, I think I like him more than my old one. My ultrasound is scheduled for this Monday.

For some reason I keep thinking it might be twins. I do not know why I keep thinking this. I know before I became pregnant, when I was anticipating my pregnancy, twins kept popping up in my mind. I don't think I want twins. But I will find out for sure on Monday.

I am supposed to be spending the day working on my sociology research paper, but it is 2:15 and I still haven't started writing it yet. The first half of the day I felt so bad all I could do was lay down. I managed to eat all of what I had of some pepper jelly and whole wheat thins, and also some chicken noodle soup. I plan on going to the Farmer's Market tomorrow to get more jelly. This may be the only thing I can stomach for the next few weeks.
