It's been a while since I have last blogged. I can't say that I haven't had time so honestly I don't really have an excuse. Tomorrow will make 11 weeks into my pregnancy. I am looking forward to welcoming the 2nd trimester! The first one hasn't been very good to me so I'm praying for a brighter future. Here lately I haven't been able to keep anything down. Food has become my worst enemy. I'm worried my baby isn't getting all the nutrients he/she needs because my diet has not been the best. However, I do take my vitamins everyday and with prayer I know that everything will be good and the baby will be healthy.
So far pregnancy has been nothing like the way I always imagined it would. I haven't come to love my belly yet. Don't get me wrong...I love the baby growing inside me, I talk to him/her everyday. But getting big is not as easy as I thought it would be. I've always been on the larger side anyhow so I figured being fat is just something I'm used to and being pregnant would be no different....I was bad wrong! As of now I haven't gained a single pound...in fact I've lost weight. However, my belly has gained several inches and none of my jeans will button anymore. It's frustrating because before I got pregnant I had lost weight and was down a pant size. My stomach was actually flat and getting tone! Now it's all flab and round and stretch marks are trying to make an appearance. I feel very unattractive everyday...despite all the times that Josh looks at me and tells me how beautiful I am. Isn't he the sweetest?!
I go back to the doctor on Nov. 9th and then on Nov. 10th I have my next ultrasound. I really hope the second one is a better experience than the first one. I will not find out what the baby is until January. And YES I want to know the sex. Everyone I see has asked me are you going to find out what the baby is and I can't understand why the heck you wouldn't! I know some people choose not to but if you know me you know I have zero patience! NONE! So yes I want to know boy or girl!
Choosing a name is not going to be easy. Josh and I have agreed on a few but everything I really like he doesn't love so much and vice versa. I am already stressed out about trying to come up with a name. I do not like my name and Josh doesn't like his either so we want to make sure we pick a name that our child will appreciate. That's a lot of pressure! It's going to take a while but we will figure it out I'm sure!
One last thing before I finish this blog is that if you see me in public PLEASE do not touch my belly. Just because I have a baby in my belly does not give you permission to rub on me. It makes me uncomfortable and trust me after you do it and I tell you about it, you will be uncomfortable too. So just don't touch me and we will all be..well...comfortable!
