ok so i went and had my U/S done. i am have a GIRL!!!!! i didn't realize how much i wanted a girl until they told me its a girl. she didn't try to cover up, she wanted us to know she is a girl. i felt like i was having a boy, and the baby predictor predicted a boy and well the doc said she is a girl. She is doing great everything looks good .

I had my ultrascreen today it was so cool to see the baby, again. Baby got so big since the last one I saw. Only a week or so ago, the little one is really growing fast. I have had 2 other u/s done but they were trans-vaginal so the pic was not that great, but this time I got to see the baby so clear. He/she was sucking the thumb and was kicking a lot. I also heard the heart beat and it sounded amazing. 150beats, I can wait to feel the little one move it has become so very real. The idea of this little person in side me. My s/o was there with me he was extremely excited to see the baby and even asked to hear the heart again. I think it is really sinking in to him that there is a baby in me. He kept asking if she could tell us if it is a boy or girl, she said it was too soon to tell.

So the metallic taste comes and goes I read an article that says it "normal" with pregnancy. I am getting tired of things being "normal" with pregnancy, don’t get me wrong I love the fact that I am pregnant and bringing a beautiful little life into this world but I could do with out the gross crap that is "normal" . I am still very sleepy. I go to see the doc on Monday 2^nd visit can’t wait to hear the heart and hopefully see the little one again. Other then those things I am doing great. I still have light cramps every once in a while but nothing to worry about. Some days I wish I could stay in bed all day and watch TV. I guess that will come soon enough when the baby is born.

9 weeks- I feel ok, my back is bothering me a little bit. I have not been sleeping very well. I am still very sleepy all the time and get headaches. I feel sad sometimes, just want to curl up and cry. Which is very easy to do, cry that is. I cry at songs on the radio when I am driving.

I dread the idea of going home to cook. But my s/o works later then I do so, if I don’t cook I don’t eat. No big deal he is really good and makes sure that I have a few nights off from cooking. I put ketchup on just about everything I eat. Also I have a weird after taste in my mouth when ever I finish something sweet or whenever I eat any other foods. Water has become my favorite drink. I can drink 5 bottles a day at least.

Before I got pregnant I would color my hair every 3 weeks (bleach blond). Let me just say my root are scary. Good thing is I keep my hair short so it looks like highlights. Just 3 more weeks till I am in the 2^nd trimester then I can at least do something to it. I go to the doctor for my second check up on 2/25 so I will ask him then when he thinks it’s a good idea to color it.

Thanks for reading I will keep you posted on the weird after taste thing
