I have always taken some pride in the fact that with my first two pregnancies, I never felt sick. I NEVER had morning sickness, and the only time you would find me bending over a toilet or sink would be if I ate too much or laughed too hard (and that's no joke...if I can't stop laughing my stomach would not handle it too well). Well, now that I've discovered that I am going to have baby #3, I feel like I have a constant unease in my stomach. It's not just in the morning. It lasts all day. I don't ever feel sick enough to throw up, but I just want to lay down all day. It seems to be lightening up though. The queasy feelings in my stomach aren't as bad as they were a few weeks ago, so I am thankful for that. I guess that's what I get for thinking that all of my pregnancies were going to easy peasy. I know that things could be A LOT worse, and I have quite a few friends who have been awfully sick during their pregnancies, so I am counting my blessings. I give two thumbs up to the women who are barfing every morning and still going to work and trying to make it through the day. I'm nowhere close to being that sick, and here I am complaining about my stomach bothering me. Anyway, I am somewhere around 12 weeks. Tomorrow is my first appointment with the OB/GYN and if everything goes well, I will probably get to hear the heartbeat.
In other news, it's finally VEGAS week! I can't believe that 4 months ago I was planning a trip to Vegas with some of my family, and it felt so far away, but now it's finally here! We will be taking off on a long road trip Thursday morning and will be coming back on Sunday. On Friday night my mom and I will be going to see Garth Brooks! I can't believe it! I have been dreaming about seeing Garth perform live since I was about 12 years old, but when I heard that he had retired I thought my dream was shattered. Now, he performs in Vegas and I knew I just had to take this chance to see him. I can't wait to fulfill one of my dreams! On Saturday, we will be going to see Phantom of the Opera on stage. I have always wanted to see that musical performed live, and in Vegas, I bet it will be a good show. I will have lots of pictures to show when I get back, so my readers had better be ready to be Vegas'd!

*LIKE* :) You'll have an ultrasound tomorrow too to see how far along you're measuring right?
ReplyDeletePS -- don't tell Justin you're going to Vegas he has Vegas fever right now LOL
ReplyDeleteYAY for Vegas! can't wait for our adventure! See you in a few short days.
ReplyDeleteThe sickness makes you appreciate it even more when you're not sick. :) The good news is that it doesn't last forever.
ReplyDeleteI have also read that the more morning sickness you have the more likely you are to have a healthy pregnancy since that means that you are getting all the hormones you need and your body is just learning to adjust. I don't know if it is true, but it was my consolation while I was sick. :)
Enjoy Vegas. Relax, have fun.
Love you to bits!!
