MORNING SICKNESS

I have always been one that said I would avoid being sick and would not have the normal pregnancy symptoms.  Well, I am normal and have the same things as other women.

This morning I got up at 5:30 to go on my walk with Katherine.  We went even a quarter of a mile from the house when I told her I felt terrible.  But in true nature of me, I pressed on and did the 1.6 miles, came back home, grabbed 4 crackers, 1 oz of milk, laid down in bed until 7, when awaken by a sweet 14 month old.

I went to take a shower and before I got in there I knew it wasn't going to be great.  I got sick in the shower, at least the shower, then I could just clean up and go on.

I hurried in the kitchen to get myself some food before the other kiddios arrived.  Matthew came up beside me wanting to kiss me, I pushed him away from the smell, which I picked out for him, but can't handle right now.

I chugged down a glass of milk with Carnation Breakfast, my go to food when I feel the need to have a comfort breakfast.  I paired it with a Bagel Thin with butter, the butter did way to much for it, next time nix it.

I feel so much better, I even snuck in a nap for a few minutes.

6 weeks and doing great

6 weeks pregnant and doing great!!  I have energy, have not had morning sickness yet, but dogone it, I have gained weight.  The weight gain started the day I got pregnant with Lola I do believe.  I remember going to the Dr and weighing and being 10 lbs heavier than I was when I got pregnant.  FLUID, FLUID, FLUID is my problem.  I had an extreme high FLUID level my whole pregnancy with her and I do believe I will with this baby as well.  

I can look at food and gain weight, think about it and gain weight, dream about it and gain weight.  I seriously remember not eating when I was pregnant so I would not gain weight.  

But in the end, I ended up with a perfect baby, beautiful baby, and super healthy baby.  

Still, I am trying to be super good about what I eat and don't eat.  Apple a day keeps the doctor away they say, well in this case let's hope for only 1 time a month visit for a while.  

I have had a surge of energy and yet to have morning sickness.  This past weekend my Uncle got married to the most awesome woman ever.  God doesn't make them like this anymore.  Lola was a flower girl and the cutest one ever.  I had a great amount of energy, stayed up late with the family each night, got up early and got the family ready each morning and felt awesome, other than feeling like a blimp.
