It has now been a week since we have found out our life changing, world turning, joyous news. I am a bit obsessed with seeing the word Pregnant I guess. I just look another home test just to be 100% positive. Granted I realize that once I see the doctor he will tell me everything I need to know. My body itself is doing a pretty good job also letting me know things are "going on" in my tummy region. Goodness, I am so bloated right now I look 7 months pregnant. Please don't count this as complaining I am only stating that it is an odd feeling to have your stomach pushed out this far and it is hard like a ball. I was going to wait to tell my office that I was pregnant but with all the odd looks I think I might have to tell them before I go to the doctor. All my symptoms are the same as last week even the insomnia. I am one tired girl. I could so go for a nap about mid day every day. I hear that when you hit the 2nd trimester your energy level goes up. Pray for that one. I also read a very interesting fact...one I could have guessed myself I suppose. They say researchers have proven an old wives tale that the more heartburn you have the more likely chance your baby will have a full head of hair. We all know I am going to give birth to a 14 lbs baby. 7lb baby + 7lb hair. This child will need a haircut before he or she is released out of the hospital. I will be making my doctor appointment this week. I am anxious to see how far along I really am. I am only guessing about my weeks as of right now.
