This week has been truly surreal. I don't feel pregnant, but I notice my body is different. I'm sooooo grumpy, my face is breaking out, I'm really tired, my stomach is oh so slightly protruding, I'm hungry all the time, and I've had cramps for the past two weeks.
I actually had to call Teleheatlh yesterday because I truly couldn't believe I was pregnant! Because I took the two tests about 5 to 7 days after my expected period date, that were both positive, I was definitely pregnant. So now my fear is that the baby is okay and that my exercising, running, drinking, smoking cigars and taking lots of Advils didn't hurt the baby in anyway.
My husband has been absolutely wonderful through all of this. He is either just as excited as me, if not more. It just makes the whole process so much more enjoyable. He's completely supportive in EVERYTHING. We even agree on all the names that I like for both a boy and a girl! So far we like for a boy: Ethan, Liam, Grady and Keegan... for a girl: Isabella, Sophia, and Ella. My bosses daughter is named Ella so I may not choose that one now. :)
It's a good thing we decided to renovate the upstairs (adding a bathroom and installing hardwood flooring) since we're going to need to build a nursery. This is going to be fun fun fun! :)
Tomorrow is my first doctor's appointment. I'm so excited, yet sooooo nervous. I'm so worried that something may be wrong with the baby or that I've had a miscarriage already. But that's no way to think, I have to think positive!
Until then!
