'Twas the night of September 4th and I was feeling antsy. My period was a couple days late and I demanded answers. I talked to Art before he left for work and pleaded with him to buy me a pregnancy test, not really expecting him to do so. Art believed from my past experiences that taking a test would make me immediately start my period. I decided that in the morning if he didn't show up with a test, that I would save my pee in a cup until I could go to the store and get one myself. Much to my surprise, he actually bought one so I hurriedly took it and quickly received the positive result I had been praying for for nearly 2 years.
I patiently waited for my 8 week appointment, and got to see the baby on an ultrasound October 3rd. We saw a heartbeat and the baby is nestled snugly in my uterus.
I didn't experience ANY morning sickness when I was pregnant with Keira, so I was caught by surprise when around 7 weeks I began to feel nauseous all day every day. I am just shy of 9 weeks and there has been no improvement. I have been SUPER exhausted. I take a nap every day and spend the rest of the day on the couch. My house is a disaster, my husband and daughter are neglected, and I can't remember the last time I cooked a meal. Thus is the nature of the first trimester. Just the beginning of many sacrifices to come during the incubation of our beloved baby, who is scheduled to appear in mid-May.
