11 weeks, 4 days
I do not feel very good today. It is kind of funny, on Sunday, everyone was asking me how I was feeling, whether or not I was sick and I felt great that morning! I told them that I thought the sick part was over! As soon as I left church I felt like I was going to throw up! I have felt gross ever since. I walked into the church on Wednesday night when they were serving Lasagna for dinner and I had to leave right away. I hate that I can't stand certain smells, and I certainly don't like feeling nauseous all the time! I know it will pass though, so it's bearable!
Bobby, my boss took me out to lunch the other day when we had to go to Fuquay to get some tax forms, and as soon as I finished eating, I had to go to the bathroom and throw it all up! That's the worst...throwing up in public restrooms at restaurants...That one bumped me up to number 5!
There is some good news, however, I have not gained any weight yet! Although, I feel like I have, and I absolutely cannot wait to start showing!
My second prenatal visit is coming up soon. It is set for the 9th and Ryan is going to try to come with me! Hopefully we will get to hear the heartbeat! I really hope he can come with me, I wouldn't want him to miss that.
Sleeping is really hard for me now. Usually, when I go to bed, I get pretty hot, so I just get a sheet, and I leave the fan on. Then, in the middle of the night, about the time I have to get up to pee every night, I get freezing cold and I have to turn the fan off and get a blanket. Then a few hours later, I get really hot again and have to go back to the way I started. Plus my back hurts all the time now, so I started sleeping on the couch. It is way more comfortable than our bed, and Ryan doesn't mind because he gets to stretch out. :-) I never feel rested enough, and if there is nothing to do, I am napping. I have been making myself busy lately so that I won't have to feel bad about napping so much, but that has only resulted in me being more tired and in more pain.
I always forget to take my vitamins, and I think psychologically, I am refusing to take them because the last couple times I did, I threw up. I hate it! My friend Juli, who is due this month, said she takes Flinstone vitamins because they work well and don't make her sick. I think I will ask my doctor if I can do that too. Plus, they are way more yummy than those big fat dye-free vitamins!
Anyways, please pray for me, like I said, I am way tired and way sore and sick of being sick! I don't want my attitude to go down the drain along with my lunch... :-) Thanks for reading!

After having four children, I can totally relate! You will be getting real close to losing those sypmtoms! Maybe within the next 2 or 3 weeks. Try taking you pre-natals in the evening. Try real hard to take them! I know it is a pain to remember, but they are so very important and can help prevent problems down the road. I remember feeling horrible everytime my husband took me out to dinner, paid for it, just for me to throw it up, ahhhh, those memories.
My advice to you is to take lots of naps! It will actually help the nausea! You will feel better! I had to quit my job when I was pregnant with Cassie, cause I couldn't make it through the day without a nap. Fortunatly we could make that choice. Don't worry about the house, just get as much done as you can only when you feel well enough to do the work. Keep me informed :-)
Love,
Cousin Michele
Ann! I can't say I have ever been pregnant or desire to ever be pregnant. I think they would have to make a movie after me if that happened. Haven't they already made one about Arnold S. being pregnant? Well I have and will continue to pray for you. Before long you will be craving humus and olives for lunch and all that weird stuff out there. Nothing like a liver pudding milkshake with a side of boiled chitlins and an onion filet sandwhich with ketchup, relish, more liver pudding, more humus, and a dog biscuit (Trust me, you'll think about that one someday. Thank me later.) I just want everyone to know that God has blessed Sandhills Express Delivery with Ryan, Baby Donovan, and you. God Bless all 4 of you.
Humus and Olives
awww ann i hope you feel better! I'll be praying for you and the little one!! love you!!
