5 weeks! June 19, 2012

5 weeks Details:

Symptoms: Sore breasts, constpipation, extreme bloating

Feelings: Overwhelming, anxious, excited, happy, nervous

It's not completely official, but it could be. I haven't called to set up a dr. appointment yet but part of the reason is because I am in Illinois visiting family until Thursday evening. I am a little nervous to call because I feel as though they won't want to see me until I am 10-12 weeks or something like that and I don't want something like 2 years ago to happen again! I am almost going to demand that I go in around 6 weeks or so and make them PROVE that there is a tiny little baby inside me whether from HCG tests or an ultrasound! But I guess we will have to wait and see.

This trip has been a blessing.. I got the chance to tell my mother face to face that she will be an OMA. :) We have told our immediate family minus a few siblings but that will have to wait probably until I get back from vacation. My symptoms have been slowly developing more.. I can't seem to use the restroom for the life of me and when I mean bathroom, I don't mean number 1! I go pee all the time and have yet to be able to sleep through the night since seeing that + sign on the stick. And just to get my stomach to feel better I have to constantly eat! I seem to be craving pickles more than anything, go figure! I love them anyway. My boobies are still pretty sore and haven't gotten worse or better yet.

I am a little anxious and find myself having to calm myself down here and there because there is so much going on in life right now and I don't want to risk anything with this little one. I also have been getting pregnancy advice from anyone and everyone that knows. Even people who are not pregnant or have never been pregnant. It's a little overwhelming and a tad annoying, but I just take it with a grain of salt and know that I will do what I want in this pregnancy and not what everyone else tells me to do. Aaron and I are devoted to making this something great for us! :) This was in the morning.. just a bit of bloating!
