10 Weeks & Counting...

I realize that it has been quite awhile since I have written, I think it's because sometimes it seems like it's too good to be true. I still feel like my old "infertile" self, there's a lot of feelings that have not gone away. It was a very sensitive time and I expect to struggle with those feelings for awhile. A friend the other night was bragging about how his wife gets pregnant the first month and I couldn't help but take it personal and feel like it was an attack on me. I had to remind myself that I am pregnant and he just doesn't get it.

BUT there have been lots of good things that have happened in the last 6 weeks as well! I have been able to see the baby twice and one time I swear I saw a little wave. Of course I waved back. I think I am getting past the "morning sickness" stage, which was really an "all day" car sickness feeling. Just as I'm writing this, I'm feeling a little nauseous. :o) I feel little twinges or pinches, which I am told is everything stretching and getting ready for the baby to get bigger. Today my tailbone is killing me. Not sure what that is about, but hopefully it's not a sign of what's to come the next 30 weeks!

I can tell that Justin is getting more and more excited. Every once in awhile he'll kiss my belly goodbye in the mornings. And I like to tell him fun little facts like, "our baby has nipples now." :o)

Everyone is excited to meet this little one and I am looking forward to my next appointment, so that we can finally start telling people!
