APRIL 23RD:

Heddo everyone! I worked this weekend... major busy in the ED. You'd think people would be less inclined to go to the ED when it's beautiful out, but apparently not. I've been so BLah today. More nausea today.. usually a snack would make it better but not today. I read someone's remark about the nausea peaking at 10 wks... I believe it.

I still haven't told my instructors at school I'm pregnant. Hopefully they think I'm just getting fat. I want to be into my summer semester before they know so they can't make me stop this semester before my internships begin. Devious. Hopefully they'll work well with us preggo mommies. Later!

April 27th: Today I broke down and bought my first pair of maternity pants. My other ones were just getting way too restrictive... old Navy. I also found a few great tops at Target and it was much better surprisingly than Old Navy... not even maternity tops but lucky for me the style is the baby doll this year! The tops there seems to fit the larger bust size too... :)

May 16: AHHHHH....Relief! This week has been soooooo much better! Feeling better without the cruds and still getting bigger! I can finally definitely feel baby flutters... and those lovely ligament pulls. Still concerned about if I'll be able to make it to term at work though... ah well. What will be.... will be. I was thinking of taking a year off my last year of NP school.... deciding differently. I think I'm going to try to keep going and graduate next summer. We'll see! Hope you all are doing well, too!!!

May 18:Clap your hands!We're in our 2nd trimester as of Wednesday.I chaperoned my daughter's trip to the zoo this week.That was interesting with a charter bus full of 1st graders!I can't wait to find out what sex baby we'll be having.I found out with my daughter and loved knowing... Getting a major preggo belly now.

June 27th: It's a BOY!!!

August 7: Almost at that 3rd trimester mark! Soon to drink that nasty sugar syrup. No problems now... occas contracting when on my feet all day at work... but I'm chugging that water! Seems to have gotten better some. Feel lots of kicking up in my ribs. Still haven't decided for sure on a name.... SUGGESTIONS?? :)

Aug 22: We're Here.. in the 3rd trimester! Lots of belly activity and more tired lately! Getting harder to bend over and keep the pace up at work now. Hubby's been a great help at home and tolerating all my "bidding"... LOL. I'm gonna go nap now!
