Here we go...

Nesting, Emotional Rollercoaster-Moodswings, Weight Gain and Water Retention, Hemorrhoids, Leg Cramps, Back Aches, Swollen Ankles, Dead Tired Exhaustion like I ran a marathon, and by no means am I completely 100% nausea free! dude I am only 9 wks and I feel every single freakin sympton- side effect -whatever you wanna call it. I finished reading Jenny McCarthy's book Belly Laughs-hahahaha-really there is some one out there other than me who has or is experiencing all of this!! AHHH! My husband doesn't believe me-at least I think he doesn't believe me-most of the time!
I can't believe that most of my shirts/blouses no longer fit..oh yeah did I mention that symptom? My boobs are already so swollen and reallllyyyy sensitive...already!
And I had to break down and buy some granny panties. Not my happiest moment ever...and said goodbye to my thongs. Don't think I will ever wear those again. Although this is the most beautiful thing a woman experiences throughout her life...I am...admittedly not there yet!
It was very special when we went to the last ultrasound! Yes I said we, my husband accompanied me on this visit and we both got to see the crazy fast heartbeat and the baby's development. That was amazing! Now I have a picture of a big tadpole, no more baby blob!

OH boy...here we go...

First ultra sound -wow to see the heartbeat of this little tadpole growing inside of you is actually pretty crazy. I think I am still in shock! So ever worry about where you are going in your life or what you are doing here? I guess fellow 30 somethings ... I got my answer. Finally!
Really I am excited, overwhelmed and extremely nervous but welcoming this new adventure for the rest of my LIFE!
