7 week itch

Keeping this quiet has become quite a challenge! I figured, why not start a blog and you'll be able to share your feelings without telling anyone. Good idea, right? Not so when you use the internet. I didn't realise this blog would be listed under my profile, so God knows how many people know. Well, what's done is done and I enjoy having an outlet. I really can't wait for these next few weeks to be up and then I can tell everyone!!

So, 7 weeks. I should be feeling sick, but I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. I was on the phone with my Grandmother over the weekend and she told me that she never felt any sickness when she was pregnant with my mom and Aunt. Then my mom mentioned that she never felt any sickness with me or my brother. Happy days! I'm not really feeling much of anything... except constipation. Glad I shared that one, knew you were wondering. I've been increasing my water intake, but to no avail. Still have this metalic taste in my mouth, but no other symptoms. I guess I shouldn't be complaining- who wants to be sick, right?

Just waiting for our first midwife appointment so I can find out more about what the months ahead hold for me. I'm sure it's going to be super fun! Woo-hoo a little person is growing inside of me. I'm also letting myself believe that labour is going to be a synch. This little baby is just going to slide on out! Let me live in own little world, I'm happy there.

Constipation, yeah fun, I also suffer the same burden. I had to request a prenatal with a stool softener. Helps a ton! I also found that hot water with lemon in it, or as a last resort prune juice.

Oh Luisa!! I never stalk you through your profile, only through your other blog so I was just shocked when I saw the second blog listed! This is wonderful news, exactly what I needed about now.

Much love headed overseas, you should be getting it in an hour or so, the way the Jet Stream is blowing through here.

Oh, and I had that metallic taste too, and no sickness. Nothing is worse than tincan mouth
