The News is out

So, 

I haven't posted on here in a while and that's because it was easier to say nothing than what I really wanted to talk about.  I'm pregnant!  I found out as soon as I got back from Canada so that's pretty much taken over my nights since I've been back.  Actually it's the tiredness that's taken over my nights.  By the time I get home from work I'm dead.  G's been good about making dinner for me and breakfast since I found out pretty early that I need protein first thing in the morning.  I have to say - he's been a fabulous husband during this pregnancy, and the rest of the time too.  :)

I'm 9.5 weeks along and everything is going well.  We are due July 30th. We saw the doc at 8 weeks and got to have a small ultrasound.  We saw the heartbeat and the size of baby was good.  I've not been feeling too bad.  Mostly tired and hungry.  If I get too hungry I start to completely break down - I get weak and feel sick.  So I've been eating something every few hours which keeps me feeling okay but concerned about weight gain.  I haven't gained a lot yet, but more than I wanted too this early.  We'll see how things go, maybe once I get past 12 weeks I won't have to eat to keep off the nausea.  

I have another apt. at 12 weeks and another ultrasound so we are looking forward to that.

We've started taking a couple photos - we took one when I found out I was pregnant, and another at 8 weeks.  We'll do another at 12 weeks and depending on if I'm actually "showing" or just gaining weight I'll post them.  I seem to be gaining the weight only on my waistline which is good - maybe people will start to think I'm showing when it's really just fat.  :)  

Anyway, now everyone knows so I can talk about it.  I'm sure over the next 8 months I'll have lots on here about pregnancy, getting fat, and so on.

So here it starts....
