Day 106 [10 Weeks 1 Day]

Finally got my chalk board painted and am just waiting for Rafal to get home from a quick WalMart run so that we can take my FIRST official prenatal picture!!

I was craving a jelly doughnut and frosted flakes, and what a man!  Off to the store he went!  I am SO blessed.

Life is good today, and every day for that matter, but I haven't been AS sick as I was a few days ago.  Thank GOD.  Just certain foods making me barfy, but thats kind of normal even for non-pregnant Sara.  We went and had Long John Silver's for dinner, and wow, it was amazing, but can you say indegestion?!  Holy cow.  I am still dying and that was 3 hours ago!

I have TONS of procrastinated homework to do right now, so I had better get off of this blog, but just wanted to fill everyone in on my chalk board and how good I have been feeling lately!

Day 103 [Week 9 Day 5]

Can NOT believe how sick this little grape baby has been making me!!!

I have been

MISERABLE

I know, hard to believe, considering my first 3 weeks I was doing so great.  I have been severely bed ridden with this ridiculous thing they call "morning sickness" which doesn't strike in the morning, it is an evil, evil demon that can hit you any time, any where.  It is relentless!  Embarrassing, horrifyingly disgusting, and a diet all in one.  

So far in my pregnancy of this sweet little grape I have LOST 10 pounds!!  Yes, I said "lost" and not "gained".  This is a big problem, well not exactly, I mean, I am not harming said grape baby by losing this weight.  Little baby grape is still getting the nutrients he/she needs, I however, am not.  So the vitamins have been increased as well as the water consumption.

Yesterday we went to our first Baby Doctor appointment, and met Dr Ancheta, our baby doctor.  He is just like Ken Jeong, the goofy doctor at the end of Knocked Up::


In fact, the doctor said yesterday, "So this little baby will be around the beginning of August, is that going to work for you?" Well, let me check my calendar quick sir.  

[haha]

I loved him, he cracked me up.  Anyone who can make me laugh through a pap smear is a trooper and a great doctor in MY book!  So I look forward to our journey with this crazy doc.

I follow a great mommy blog about her and her pregnancy with her baby girl Garvin.  I stole this little group of questions from her, because I love them so much:

How Far Along:
9 Weeks 5 Days
Total Weight Gain:
Lost 10pounds, so will I consider my weight gain from my original 140lbs or from my 130lbs where I am now?
Maternity Clothes:
No way girlfriend, not yet at least... I hope I get to last a few more months.
Stretch Marks:
Not at all, but I am taking much better care of myself this time around.  I got quite a few on my hips with Dylan, and I learned my lesson, don't scratch the itch!
Sleep:
Well, I hadn't been sleeping at all.  Now thanks to my doctor and my new medicine, I am sleeping much better!
Best Moment This Week:
Feeling like dancing today!!
Miss Anything?
Being able to have a drink, going out and shaking my booty, and well... SUSHI <3
Movement:
Not yet, with Dylan I didn't feel it until about 5 months.
Food Cravings:
Fruit, preferably watermelon and strawberries... OH and red grapes <3
Anything Making You Queasy or Sick:
Everything meaty.
Gender:
unknown yet, I truly feel it is my baby girl... BUT if it isn't I won't be disappointed at all!
Labor Signs:
thank God not yet.
Symptoms:
Nausea, Indigestion, Low Fever, Insomnia, Food Aversions and Cravings.
Belly Button In or Out:
Still my cute little innie, with my belly button ring still in.  I will keep it in until it starts poking out.
Happy or Moody Lately:
A little bit of both.
Looking Forward To:
Being over with all the first trimester funkies, ready to get back into my Yoga routine, and playing some tennis.  I miss being active and I can't wait to get back outdoors!

Beach here we come!!
