Ah..the joys of being Pregnant

Today was probably one of the first times that i have felt pregnant....i think i am beginning to get the morning sickness syndrome......i hope that this wont last for long.....all day today have been yucky.......the feeling of nausea has not yet left me...the good thing is that i am still able to eat....the only problem is keeping it down.......at time of logging this down i just had another wave of nausea sweep by...nothing coming out...which is good...but the feeling is just terrible.....now i know how my pregnant girlfriend feels when she told me she felt very nauseated last week....that's how i feel today......

Well, this all started yesterday when i had some vanilla milkshake and apparently that did not jive well with my stomach......and out it all came after coming home from picking Miks from school.........thereafter i did not feel any better.....managing only very little dinner.....and then of course feeling really hungry late in the night.......then it did not get any better this morning coz i threw up part of my breakfast again today...which is not good........really dont hope this stays.....praying that it will go away sooner rather than later........it's odd, coz i never remember feeling like that with Miks......must be a really different child someone tells me......we shall see.......

Last night was really funny....coz since i ate so little dinner, by around 10.30pm which is bedtime i thought to myself and told hubbie that i was hungry.....he suggests that i get something to eat.....me being me i thought i could drink water and it shall all pass.....forgetting that i was preggie for that short while........however, about 1/2 hours later, i turn to hubbie who at this point was in bed with me and said " I cant sleep! I need FOOD!!!!" so off i went to get food.....which was a brilliant idea......had some bread with butter and peanut butter....YUM!!! Pure satisfaction.....something that i dont feel sick eating......then hubbie turns around and looks at me and starts to giggle....i turned to him and said, "dont you dare laugh....this is in no way funny!!!!" Turned my back and went to sleep......so much for feeling sick.......however again, i could not sleep.....due to having slept for about 3 hours earlier in the day yesterday....last nite became a nitemare........hardly any sleep...so, today i told myself...am not going to nap in the day time...let's hope i sleep tonite!!!

Getting pregnant and being pregnant

HPT # 1

Today as i sit here and write about this topic of getting preggie and being preggie, my thoughts are all over the place. But i figured since i had intended to record all my thoughts about being pregnant this time down, i had better start!

Well, you see, we have been trying for another baby now for about 6 yrs with no avail! Then about 1.5 weeks ago, we discovered that we are indeed pregnant!!!! I was so shocked and happy and suprised all at the same time that i took a total of 5 HPT's just to be sure!!!! They all obviously told me the same thing! BFP!!so that has taken a while to sink in..but now that it has, i must say my thank yous to all who have kept us in their prayers all this while. We would really like to thank the Lord for this provision which He will care for and know from the top of head to tip of toe!!!

We are all very excited! at time of writing this, Miks our 7 yr old still has no idea what is coming her way in 9 mths time! I bet she will be delighted!!! I will remember to take a picture of her when we tell her in due time!!!

Right now, i am feeling a little anxious just coz we have an early scan to determine that all is well and then we will be refered back to the GP/Midwife. The scan is to be this saturday and i am wondering how i will last till then!!! God will have to give me lotsa strength and energy to get by this week......Last week was easier just coz i have been busy with another friend who has been busy moving house! This week will be fine as well!! at least that's what i tell myself!!!!

Well, my scan on Saturday went very well and the nurse tells us that we are doing well....we have one healthy heart beating......had not managed to count the heart beats...hopefully to do it next scan...........will have to scan the scan results onto the pc then have them here.....she was ready to have me contact my GP but i said to her, since we are moving can i wait....she says yes and then offered us another scan in 2 weeks.....so we will be in again for another scan....
