Well, I know I have been the worst blogger and commenter (sp?) lately. I have been feeling pretty sick lately and tired. Basically I go to work and then sit my ass on the couch all night. I thought the nausea had passed on Friday night - I worked a 9 hour day - had a whole chicken parm hero for lunch - went food shopping - cooked steak, broccoli, rice, salad for dinner, cleaned the whole kitchen, folded and put away laundry - I had such a burst of energy - I told my husband I must be turning the corner.
Saturday hit and I felt barfy all over again - left work early - slept most of the day - went to my nephew's birthday cake where I was greeted with "God - you look tired" and "Do you feel ok? You are very pale" So I am not quite at the corner yet.
I have another birthday party at 3pm today - hopefully I will be out of there early.
I have been trying to keep up with everyone's progress lately.....
Lesley's rash, Ally's IUI, Jamie's Monitor Madness, Jess' scope, Chas' oops I have a wedding THIS weekend, LIZ' knocked up status....I just haven't really commented too much and I am sorry.
I go for an appointment on Tuesday - another sonogram and hopefully I will get to hear the heartbeat - we shall see.
I am officially past the previous miscarriage date - and I have started feeling good about this pregnancy.
We told Joey last weekend and he said "See mom - I told you there were two babies in your belly!"
I let him tell the rest of my family at yet another birthday celebration on Monday - he went up to my whole family (they were all sitting together) and said "Hey - guess what? My mom has TWO babies in her belly!" All of them just stared at him for a good 20 seconds - probably thinking "Did he just say what I think he said? Do we congratulate her or will she break out crying because we misunderstood him?"
Slowly they all turned around to me and I just smiled and nodded my head - needless to say they all screamed - my mom cried and my dad just looked at me and laughed. It was so nice relaying good news for a change. My mom was a tiny bit upset about being kept in the dark so long (especially since I out and out lied to her about being pregnant) but she understood why I kept it under wraps.
So now everyone knows - two weeks earlier than I had planned on telling them - but I am staying positive. I think I have mentioned this before but I told my husband "Regardless of what happens with these babies - this will be the last time I am pregnant - for good or bad - so I am making the decision to enjoy it - not to proceed so scared and nervous - I am going to embrace my big fat belly."(Believe me - it is getting big already! I am like the size I was at 16 weeks with Joey)
Well, I am off to Target now - nothing like waiting until the last minute to shop for a birthday gift!
I hope everyone is doing well and everyone gets good and knocked up this month!!! Good luck to all - I will update on Tuesday after my sonogram.
