I'm currently listening to Lite 101.9's Christmas music. Yes, I am one of the annoying people that love the music even before Thanksgiving!!
So, apparently, this little bean sprout does not like scrambled eggs. I made some on Saturday morning and was regretting it later. I didn't puke, but oy my tummy hurt!!
Things have been going just fine. I'm still maintaining the same weight for the most part but my pants are getting a bit tighter. I bought me two pair of pants last week and will probably have to get more before Christmas. I was hoping I could wait until then and just ask for some gift cards but oh well. Shirt wise, I'm okay for a while still. Many of my sweaters and all are big enough to allow a bit of growth. It's just the pants that are frustrating.
My next appointment is December 3rd. Which is actually closer than I realized. I think at this one we will get to hear the heartbeat. I told Chris he didn't have to come, but he wants to.
That's all I have for now. It's a short work week and I'm already checked out. It's going to be a long two days!

New picture!!
My ticker just moved up to something that actually resembles a baby! :) It's the little things!
So, today I am at nine weeks. Besides the being tired all the time, it doesn't seem like I'm growing another human in me. Sure, I get the pains and the stretching feelings, but it's still surreal at times. Some pants are started to get a bit tight. Not uncomfortably tight, but I just can tell they are fitting a bit differently. I still haven't gained anything which is good. In fact, yesterday I gorged on food. I mean, really! I have always been a bit of a grazer. When I order things, I tend to want a little bit of a lot of different things. Yesterday, we ordered subs from a local sub shop. I ordered a cheeseburger sub and onion rings thinking I would have a couple of the rings and pawn them off on one of the guys in the office. Yeah, nope! I ate the whole sub and all the rings. Wow! Then Chris grilled steaks for dinner even though it was raining slightly. Mmmm. But when I weighed myself this morning, it was still that glorious number that I haven't seen in a long time. I know it will catch up to me, but I'm enjoying it while it lasts.

Quick gripe
One thing I don't like about Blogger...they don't tell you when you have new comments! That's what I love about LiveJournal. Anytime anyone comments on a post, I get an email. And when someone comments on a comment, I get that too! Oh well.
Well, I'm now a few days past eight weeks. I still haven't gotten sick. I'm not feeling the nausea either anymore so that is good. But, it does kick in if I haven't eaten in a while. Like today, my class is from 11-12:15. At oh, 11:55, I got hungry. And of course, I forgot to get a bag of chips or anything to snack on. So, by the time I got back to the office, I was famished and not feeling too well. But, I got some nasty Towson food and was fine.
I do have yet another cold. I'm starting to wish they could come out with a cold shot to maybe knock out a few of the many strains that seem to find me! So, I've been all congested and sore. The soreness is compounded with the aches and pains that are starting with this.
Chris gave me a bit of a back massage last night. I think I am going to have to invest in some pregnancy massages because if this is hurting already this bad...wow!
Weight wise, I have dropped a few pounds. That's good. I really would love it if I didn't gain until well into the pregnancy. I have quite a bit to spare, so hopefully that won't be hard. I'm not actually dieting and I have actually been eating more than I was before, but as of right now, it's not adding on. So, we'll see!

I have a date!
June 19th is my official due date. However, my doctor is just going to not even mess with the possibility of vaginal delivery and will schedule me for a c-section at 39 weeks. You know what, I'm not upset by that. In some ways, I'll never experience the full impact of that part of pregnancy, but that's okay. This way I will have a plan. I will know when the end is and not have to suffer quite as long as before.
But, otherwise, the doctor said I look perfect. I'm "feeling" good for seven weeks. As usual, while there, things went flying out of my head. I'm not sure if I HAVE to get a flu shot or not. I've never had one so if it's not necessary, I don't think I want to go through that. He didn't say anything about my weight, but they haven't ever been sticklers for that. My entire pregnancy last time they didn't say one thing about it even though I probably gained more than I should have. I have lost a few pounds since the beginning, so that's good. I haven't gained anything really around the waist since I already had a nice tire thing going, but I have noticed it's getting a bit firmer in spots.
So, here's to the next several months!!
