Tonya and PQBON's WebLog
So we're moving to Pacifica this weekend. It's a 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathrooms, 2 car garage, 3-year old townhouse. It's pretty nice. Moving sucks....
I had a Doctor's appointment yesterday. All is well. It was my general complete check-up. Because there was some question as of my due date we got to do another ultrasound. With the dating they do I should be 14 weeks pregnant but because I had just stopped taking bc pills I was a week late so therefore I'm 13 weeks. Anyway, it was just a little ultrasound machine so we didn't get a picture. But we got to see the baby. It really looks like a baby now. The head and body are well defined and I could even see arms and legs. We could see the baby's heartbeat and we even could watch it move . The picture wasn't very good so there was very little detail and they would lose the picture a lot so as soon as the baby would really get completely in the screen they would lose it. I have my real ultrasound in 6 weeks. It will be a much better ultrasound machine, the doctor said they get really good pictures from it. I will be 20 weeks pregnant. At that time, if we want to know the baby's sex they can tell us as long as the baby's in a posititon where they can see. I really want to know but Will doesn't, so we have to decide what we are going to do. Baby departments are so gender specific now. They expect you to know what you're having. They don't carry as much gender neutral items as they used to, and I really want to go shopping.
Well back to packing :-(
So much to do...... So we have to move....yes again. Sometimes the idea of packing up the house makes me want to cry. But then I realize I don't really like where we are anyway so I should just be happy we are getting out of this dump. So I got a call about a week and a half into our honeymoon from our landlord. It was 7:30 am...so I was half asleep. Long story short the owners want to sell the house we are renting. No way we are going to buy it......so we have to move. Oh joy!
More in extended
I think we've found a place to live.....more on that when it's final.
So now we have to start packing.....fun. The house is a disaster for many reasons. We still have wedding presents on the floor in the living room. Before I knew we were moving I didn't know what to do with them because we have a small and fully packed kitchen and most gifts are kitchen items. All that I wanted....now I just don't know what to do with. Well, now they are just going to get packed and moved. I have a ton of thank you cards to do...and I feel horrible that I haven't done more. But if you keep reading you'll understand why I'm so far behind. I've got piles of laundry that I need to do from vacation...plus everything we bought in Hawaii...what a mess.
Another reason the house is a disaster...besides a wedding, having my dad stay with us for a week, and being gone for 2 weeks on a honeymoon, I'm pregnant. As evident by the posting below. So I'm more tired than I've ever been in my life. The first 6 weeks were good.....except horrible cramping...but that went away. And when that was gone I thought...well this is easy. No morning sickness...I felt fine. Well that all changed around week 6-7. I was exhausted....I take a shower and I need to lay down. About 2pm every day at work I want to take a nap so bad....I've actually thought about asking the doctors if I can have naptime. Then I feel tired the rest of the day. Not just tired but physically drained. I haven't gone to bed so early since I was in elementary school. The first couple weeks I was going to bed sometimes as early as 8:30 or 9pm and I still felt tired when I woke up at 7am. Then morning sickness hit me. I've only actually thrown up once. But every morning I feel nauseous until about 11am. Sometimes I'm lucky and it lasts all day long. And while food doesn't look all that appealing I'm constantly hungry. To the point where I would wake up at 2 or 3am starving. Not just oh...I'm kinda hungry.... but I would actually get weak and dizzy and nauseous. So I'd be up in the middle of the night eating so I could go back to sleep. And I have to pee so much you'd think I had a bladder infection.
So now I'm almost done with the first trimester...about to enter month 4. They say that I'm supposed to start feeling better soon. I'm really looking forward to that. I'm not quite as tired as I used to be.....I'm still pretty tired but I'm going to bed closer to 10:30 than 9. The only reason I'm up so late tonight is because I took a 2 hour nap eariler and woke up at 9pm. I had a little energy so I thought I would try to get a little done. I'm looking forward to no more morning sickness. It was hard to eat in Hawaii. We would go somewhere and nothing on the menu would sound good except for vegetables, fruit, and dessert. So soon I should feel better and then around month 7 I'll feel horrible again...but for different reasons.
So I'm very overwhelmed....moving, packing, pregnant.....all making me tired. Although completely thrilled that we are going to have a baby.
Well I'm tired again.....goodnight.
