The beginning

So I started writing at week 9 but I thought I should try to capture more of the previous weeks here too :)

Week 7 and 8 were challenging.
The nausea made it hard to drive to work, almost had to pull over once. Haven't really been throwing up, but the waves of nausea have been a little debilitating and having to pee every 5 minutes is raising a few eyebrows at work, heehee...

Sleep became a bit more difficult but finally got back into a good routine.

Had a wisdom tooth start acting up, saw a new dentist (Dr. Ho, he was adorable!!) and he said "have some popsicles, it will go away on its own" and it did!! Yay!! Good thing too, he wouldn't do an xray (obviously).

Have been reading the baby books and so has Darryl, he seems to be really into it which is such a nice thing. I'm sure I take it for granted but there are probably women out there who don't have the amazing love and support of someone like him and I'm truly thankful for amazing he is and how excited he is about this for us.

During week 6 I had an attempted ultrasound at Karma Ultrasound that didn't show anything (well, didn't show the heart beat because it was too early) it was pretty discouraging but I stayed patient (who me?) and then when we went in again May 3 it was awesome! See another post on this :) and we were in Karma Room #7 for it! Cute and lucky.

I only realised I was pregnant April 2 so I guess I was just 3 weeks along then, between finding out and the first ultrasound it was a blur. A lot of sleeping, and a lot of nausea but so much excitement and anticipation.
