Pregnancy Reflections
(Third Month)
(Third Month)
What I'm enjoying the most about my pregnancy so far is:
Knowing that, no matter how bad it gets on the outside, baby is safe and sound in his little corner of the world (otherwise known as my body <3).
The strangest advice I've received is:
Eat crackers or dry toast before getting up in the morning, and drink plenty of water/ginger tea throughout the day. If that were a magic cure-all for HG and morning sickness, don't you think I'd be all better by now? XD
Names that I've been thinking of:
If my baby is a boy, his name will most likely be Vergilius (Vergil for short). If it turns out our little grapefruit is a girl, she'll more than likely be named Jenova.
Girl or boy? I think you will be a:
Boy. Both DH and I have agreed that our instincts are leaning strongly towards the little one being male. Of course there's always room for error (and time of conception was right at the 50-50 cusp), but we'll see how it all works out in a few weeks.
At my prenatal visit this month I found out that:
I won't be seen until February 06 at the latest. Apparently OB/GYN offices are terribly crowded during the holidays. XD
My hopes:
Haven't changed drastically since last month. I wish for all the things this pregnancy has made me wary of - good health, little complication, and a wonderful, bouncing baby at the end of the road.
My fears:
That I'll never be able to fully enjoy this pregnancy until I've just about reached full term - in other words, that my condition won't get any better until literally the end of the line.

The morning sickness makes it feel like you won't be able to enjoy the pregnancy. Once you get over that (hopefully soon) it gets so much better.
Our little one is kicking me excessively as I type this now. That makes me smile with every little thump. Good luck!
I have a nearly full bottle of Promethazine (oral). I think I'm coming off my vomiting fits (13 weeks now) - and haven't gotten the diagnoses that says I'll have it much longer. If you need 'em they are yours.
I feel your pain.
