Wishing I Knew Too...

I know quite a few people who are pregnant right along with me and it is crazy that some are just a little bit further ahead of me and some behind, but it seems like everybody is finding out the sex of their babies already! I just turned 16 weeks today and I still have four weeks and two days before finding out the sex. Paul and I decided it would be fun if we found out what we were having on his 27th birthday just to make it that much more special. Up till just recently, I was like no problem! I am not that antzy to find out, but I think now knowing that if I was to get an ultrasound done right now that I really could know what we were having makes me really want to know now. I just want to start all the fun baby shopping and picking out colors for the nursery and actually know what name to call the baby. Paul has been calling this baby William since the beginning, which by the way if we are having a boy Paul has insisted on this name, so his name will be William James. I keep having dreams though, especially lately that we are having a girl. If we are in fact having a girl her name will be Mia Brianne. I just really hope that the next four weeks go by really fast. At least we have Easter just around the corner to take up some time. It will be nice to see the baby get bigger though getting the ultrasound done later than a lot of people have it done.

15 Weeks And Still SICK!

So my sickness all started at before I even hit 6 weeks, oh lucky me! It started out as just nausea, but I started throwing up about every few days, then it accelerated to few times a day so I got on Zofran, which is a great medicine by the way. It helped me a lot, going to where I was only loosing my food about every three days, but was still nauseated everyday. So pretty much since that point that is how I have been. About two weeks ago I really felt like I was getting better and only throwing up about once a week. I of course had some other sickness issues that I won't talk about which kinda brought me down though.

It was this past Saturday night that really got me really frustrated. I had decided to be brave and go on a much needed date with Paul to dinner and to see a movie. So we went to Red Robin and I ordered a small side salad and Paul got a hamburger, by the way since this pregnancy I have become a vegetarian and not by choice! Anyway, I took one bite of my salad and knew I could not finish it, the dressing was making my stomache churn. Then it was off to the movie. We went and saw Wolfman, which I had really been really excited to see it. Well let's just say it is not for those that have weak stomaches which of course I have right now, but that is not the reason I had to leave. At the really ewwwy parts I had just been turning in my head and about an hour into the movie I got so sick just because my body gets to decide everything, I had to turn to Paul and ask him to take me home. Us leaving the movie right before things got really good. I was so mad and Paul was definitely frustrated. And then yesterday, I had to go to a class for work and I totally threw up in the parking lot right after. I never knew such a small thing could control your life before it even got here!

So that is my venting for today.
