A baby update

Well, we announced our big news to the world, AKA Facebook, about two weeks ago and the response was overwhelming! This is just from my tiny little status update!

I have been so fortunate to not experience any traditional pregnancy symptoms like morning sickness, but I have discovered I now get carsick Sad smile The crazy mountain roads this past weekend demonstrated my new limitations and set me back a notch or two.

I quickly picked up a pair of Sea Bands and they seemed to help a little. I have been told it was okay to take Dramamine, but I didn’t want to get sleepy.

The other side effect of this pregnancy is that lately I have had some pretty awful headaches.

The nurses at the Dr.’s office told me that is was probably just my hormones going all wacky and that things should get better soon, but to keep monitoring the frequency and severity. Right now, they’re pretty tough dull throbbing headaches and are mostly just more annoying than anything. It did get kinda tough yesterday and I stayed home from work and didn’t move off the couch except to eat and go to the bathroom. I didn’t even change out of my pj’s!

All in all, everything is going great. I go back for a checkup in two weeks and will get to hear our little one’s heartbeat again. Let me tell you, that one never gets old!
