We will start with Jillian. She has been such a good girl recently. Still having "trouble" hearing me sometimes, but all in all she is a good girl. So sweet & loving. She always puts her arm under my head when we are laying in her bed & she pulls my head to her shoulder & tells me to lay down. I got sick last night & she actually came into the bathroom and rubbed my arm and wanted to flush the toilet. She likes to kiss and hug my belly. She told me last night she likes my baby belly. She has no idea how much bigger it will get in the coming weeks!. She always tells me she has a baby in her belly. Tonight she actually told me there were 2 babies in her belly! Better her than me. LOL. She told my mom last week that the blouse she was wearing was beautiful. If she sees a guy out & about she calls him "big guy" ie "What is that big guy doing?" Her teacher told me recently Jillian is the only one in her class that knows all her colors! (pat on our back for working with her). If you ask she says she wants a little sister (which is what I want to give her also). She told me on Sunday that she loves me sooo much! Aww! Chris says it is because she is manipulative & was just happy I let her stay up a half hour later to watch Dora! I say, who cares, my 2 year old loves me sooo much!
Now onto pregnancy. It hasn't been as bad with this one as I was with Jillian. But I think alot of that has to do with the fact that I eat very little of a variety of food. Mainly toast, crackers, chicken noodle soup, turkey & cheese roll ups & a baked potato. I still take my Zofran & phenergan. I have some good days where I actually feel slightly normal. Evenings aren't very good. I did go almost a week without throwing up, until Sunday night & then again last night! I am 11 weeks today so either I have 5 weeks or 15 weeks left of eating cardboard! (I was sick for 26 weeks with Jillian). My ultrasound I posted last week shows I am due on August 24th which was my Aunt Betty's birthday and the day after Darcy's birthday. Both Dr. Gates and I decided we wouldn't induce on the 23rd because we couldn't let Darcy's ego get any bigger. LOL. I went early with Jillian so maybe I only have 27 weeks left! I go to the doctor again next Wednesday. I am looking forward to hearing the heartbeat again. I can't wait to finally feel the baby move. I will be a little more relaxed when that happens. I know I am still producing hormones to support the child since I am feeling sick all the time, but it will still ease my mind feeling it move & not having to wait for 4 weeks to hear the heartbeat. The "pencil" test Ellen gave me says it is a boy! I don't really want a boy since we have so much girl stuff, but as long as it is healthy, I will be happy. We will find out in 9 weeks what we are having!
I'm signing off for now. I will try to do better at posting so they aren't so long. But everyone knows I am windy.
