How Being Pregnant has made me feel.

In one word YUCK!
Sorry Baby A but you really have not been a joy so far!! We are now 13.5 weeks and I have had maybe a handful of days where I'm not sick. Most foods make me ill, For 3 or 4 weeks the only food I could Handel was special K, orange Juice, ham cheese toasted sandwich's. Poor Mark did have a lot of choice. Slowly I have being able to increase What I eat but you are a fussy Bub so far. As recent as last night I added to the no go list : Eggs, Pork, Vegemite,onion, tomatoes, any processed meats, any food that's cooked in one dish... theres many more But I cant think of them all right now. I have being craving more sweet food. Ive put on 2.2kgs in weight & its gone straight to my butt. Currently I have a horrible chest infection that is making me sleep so much! I guess you have a lot of growing to do. We had our first scan last Tuesday, A down syndrome test, YOU WERE PERFECT IN EVERY WAY! You turned every way you were meant to & gave us a great view of you tossing & turning in my belly. since then I have been very emonitnal & feeling very very proctive of you. xoxoxo Later that week I saw you again at my doctors office you got a big tick of approval you were very active & squirming around. Im in love all over again - Even Thur you you are making me a one sick woman Baby A xxoxo

And we have Baby A!

So we come to you. We had being trying for a short amount of time for a baby after a few negative test I did not have my hopes up & convinced my self that all those new feelings I was feeling were just in my mind. I was feeling quietly sure on a Saturday night when Mark was cooking hamburgers & the smell was making me dry reach - oh the smell of processed meat was horrible! Also my favourite food Chocolate no longer smells or tastes appealing. So early Tuesday Morning around 5am I went to do a pregnancy test, half asleep I saw 2 pink lines come up. Sleepily I looked for the instructions because I think I'm confused. All this time Molly was looking on thinking I was very strange. Two lines yes, no No two lines means we having a baby! Then  I started to wonder if there really was 2 lines. I said to Molly -"you're going to be a big sister" I had planned to tell Mark in many sweet ways, maybe make him a cake with Daddy in it, meet him at the door with a belly(a cushion under my top) anything way then they way I told him...... It went along the lines of this (he did not know I was taking the test) I ran back into the room wondering if there really was two lines in that stick. Mark who was asleep was under the blanket... I shoved the stick right in marks faces - yelling does this have two lines???? He woke up & saying what does this have two lines???? Mark - Yeah it does. Me- well then we having a baby!!!!!! Mark- shit hey, shit hey, really is that a pregnancy test, Really is that what 2 lines mean? We then walked around in a cloud for a few hours. I did another test & went to work then the next day we had it confirmed by a doctor. Wow your life can change so much in 24 hours. We went out to dinner that night & spoke how about all thin baby, last week it was all about our next trip or the wine we were drinking.

The First 9 Weeks :)
