PANDEMIC

Ok, so today at work, my co-worker freaked me out over the whole swine flu thing. She told me how especially I need to be careful because I'm pregnant. Now I'm scared to go out, and for my husband to even come home, because I'm afraid he's going to give it to me. Crazy, huh? I'm just ready for this whole thing to be over with.
Oh well, off I go to sanitize and clean my whole house...not fun.
This is the first and only pic we've taken so far. This is around 6 weeks I think, but I already thought I was getting a bump. See that? Yeah, I think it's really just my non-flat stomach, but I was getting excited, ya know? Notice my face is not in the picture...

First Entry

So, I finally decided to make a blog. I'm not much for these things, but in discussions with my friends, it's been decided that I should at least chronicle my pregnancy, that way I won't forget it. (Even though I forget everything nowadays, I don't see how I could forget this pregnancy).
So, this is just to catch people up to speed, and to scare potential preggers out there.
I'm 16 weeks, in my fourth month, but don't try to do too much math with pregnancy, because it absolutely makes no sense whatsoever! It's probably a good thing I'm starting now though, because, it's not been so good so far. I felt great until about week 8, then the nausea started. Then the vomiting. Then the headaches, bloating, sickness, weakness, dizziness, round ligament pain, back pain, crazy emotions and many other symptoms I won't bother mentioning :) So, yeah. And by the way, it doesn't get that much better the fourth month like they say, I am proud to say that I even threw up just this morning!
In spite of all that, I am so thrilled, excited, nervous and just plain giddy about the arrival of our baby, my prayers have finally come true.
Real quick, I just want to thank all those out there, you know who you are, (probably the only ones actually reading this) THANK YOU for putting up with me and helping me out so far!
