The Late Stork

I am feeling ok this morning!  I had some fruit that Aaron’s parent’s gave me.  Really yummy.  Cantelope, pineapple, and grapes.  I also ate some watermelon and clementines; a pancake and one sausage link.  And my stomach still feels ok!  Yay!

I still haven’t gained any weight.  Initially, when I started feeling nauseous during the beginning of my pregnancy, I lost 5 pounds.  I haven’t yet gained that back.   I am now officially into my 2nd trimester.  Hopefully I will get my long lost appetite back, and start gaining weight!

The semester has officially ended, and I got all A’s! Yay me!  I am off school until January 9th.  I also will be off work for 2 weeks starting Wednesday!  Wow… no school, and NO work.  I will have so much free time!

Since I have this small window of opportunity to do other things.  This is the best time to begin preparing for the baby.  I have someone interested in buying my waterbed.  Once it’s sold, Aaron and I will be getting a king size storage bed.  Here is a picture of what it will look like…

I am back to feeling nauseous.  I threw up this morning while brushing my teeth.  My stomach is still sour even though almost 12 hours have passed.  I really wish I would start feeling normal again.

It’s strange.  Even when my stomach feels ok, I still feel bad.  Even when I sleep in, I still feel blah.  I never have an appetite, even when my stomach feels ok.  I never seem to have energy, even when I’ve slept for hours.   It seems like I can’t shrug off this yucky feeling, even when I’m physically feeling ok.  I can’t get relief.

I’ve learned that eating fruit doesn’t make me feel nauseous.  I am in love with Mandarin oranges!  I’ve been eating lots of those.  And these ….

I have some good news! … This will be my last week of the semester!  I have been studying for my Biology final, and I can’t wait for it all to be over!.   I am getting A’s for the semester. Yay!  Studying hard, and never missing class, no matter how bad I’ve felt, really paid off!

Here is my 12 week belly pic.  Still not much change, although I can’t comfortably button my jeans anymore…

Video of baby’s progress … and the last week of the 1st Trimester!  Woo hoo!  Last week of the school semester, and last week of baby’s 1st Trimester! :)
