.. is on the way. LOL! I couldn’t figure out how to start this out but that’s as good a way as any.
I’m almost 3 months pregnant now and Dennis and I decided yesterday that we should go ahead and not keep it secret anymore. We had our second ultrasound yesterday and the little blob was waving it’s tiny arms and legs around at us so we thought it was time to breath a little. I wanted to wait till i was totally out of the 1st trimester which is just over a week away but figured I wouldn’t know anything more then than I already do now so why wait. My next doctor’s visit won’t be for another 4 weeks. I’m still not out of that window where things have a larger chance of going wrong, though.
So, yes, this explains my cold from hell that took forever to go away, my lack of energy these days, and so forth. But the ‘morning’ sickness i was experiencing has been gone for almost 2 weeks now hopefully never to return.
I have 2 ultrasound pics of our little blob baby I won’t promise to post anywhere because I forget everything. But if i remember, i’ll post them.
Oh yeah, he/she is due mid april. :D
I keep short bookmark names to sites i visit regularly. Two letter names. It makes them fit better on my toolbar. Anyways… whenever i make a post to my journal (which posts to LJ) I click on my website’s bookmark “LD”. Everytime I look at this bookmark a voice in my head says “Labor and Delivery”. What an annoying voice that is. LD = Labor and Delivery. Yah, just the thing I want to think about when I go to my website. Maybe that’s why I haven’t visited/updated my site for a while now. I can’t decide what’s more annoying, this? or having some song stuck in my head all day? I vote the LD thing wins hands down.
Yah, so my energy is nonexistent now. It has always been bad anyway but now it is worse than ever before. I fell asleep at work today for about an hour… maybe two, i couldn’t tell. Waking up every once in a while to voices or a ringing phone. I woke up for good when I had to help G with a server problem, but I was zombified the rest of the day. Now is it sad, or what, that G who works RIGHT NEXT TO ME didn’t even notice i was sleeping? Am I really that boring? lol!! Anyways, I came home and managed to stay awake… I had been falling asleep on the couch right after work, but i guess my nap today made it unnecessary.. but it’s not even 10pm right now and i’m wiped.
I have a dr. appt for next week anyway so maybe he can tell me if I have anemia again or what. That’s what I’m suspecting. I dunno meng, taking iron pills never worked for me. I certainly don’t need it’s binding side effect. I bet being sick for 3 weeks didn’t help either … maybe my body just needs a hiatus. Would be nice if I could just hibernate for a month. oh yeah, and get in shape while i sleep.
throat problems and nausea aside, (STILL a little sick), we managed to have a time away from Jada for a change. D and I both had the day off from work (labor day alternate) so we took J to daycare and stayed home a few hours just vegging and sleeping. man, that was a nice nap! Then we got up at 11:30am and went to the movies to see Four Brothers. We thought it was pretty good movie.
We then went to Barnes & Noble and just looked around at kids books. I remember the days when we’d look only at computer books and spend LOTS of time thumbing through them and always buy one or two. Now, we just look at kiddie books. LOL! We bought 2 for Jada. One that helps with counting, the other about the colors in the rainbow. ‘gay pride’ book, as D put it. lol! Then we sat at a table and had starbucks drinks. I forgot how nice conversation without J around could be. man, we really need to do this more often!
Then we picked J up and thankfully she was in a good mood the rest of the day or it would have nullified the earlier hours for me. After she want to bed we saw “Y tu mama tambien” on dvd. That’s one WEIRD ass movie, lemme tell u.
anyways, it was nice change of pace for us.
Jada’s talking more these days. Repeating things we say (sometimes not the best of words such as shit and something that sounds like fuck) but still improving nonetheless.
so I was about 85%-90% over my bad cold of 2 weeks ago and now I’m developing something new. My throat started bothering me yesterday morning when I realized I couldn’t taste my food and, worse yet, my food tasted like gasoline. No pain yet but then the pain started this morning, now it’s worse and the more cold drinks i pour down my throat, the worse it gets. the cold drinks probably have nothing to do with it either, but …. anyway..
the taste coming from the back of my mouth is just DISGUSTING. I wish my sense of taste would depart completely for a few days until whatever this is passes. At least then I wouldn’t feel like i’m eating excrement everytime i swallow something. 
So I call my doctor and a she won’t be back till after labor day and no other doc there can see me. wtf? oh well, if i still have this by next week, i’ll go then.
siiiiiigh…. boredom.
