Joke's on me...

In case you didn't already realize this, God has quite the sense of humor.  Shortly after I found out I was pregnant (right around 6 weeks), the few symptoms I had almost completely dissipated, so I found myself praying for God to reassure me that everything was on track.  Ha!  Enter fatigue and nausea.  I seriously feel like I have been drugged.  This whole 'no energy in the first trimester' thing, it's no joke!  I keep apologizing to Matt because I feel utterly useless.  I get up as late as possible, drag myself through work, and collapse on the couch the second I get home.  Cleaning is now like a foreign term in our household.  And cooking?  Yeah right!  The thought of food does me in, much less the smell.  However, I have found that I get more nauseous if I let myself get hungry.  So I am constantly trying to find some snack that doesn't leave me gagging in the corner.  Luckily I haven't actually gotten sick (yet), I just stay nauseous ALL THE TIME!

Despite the fact that it's not easy trying to function like a normal human during the first trimester, I'm so thankful that everything is going well with this pregnancy.  We went to the doctor for the first time Monday, and Dr. Culver said it looked like everything was on track for around 7-8 weeks.  That means Baby C is Due right around May 6th!  Yay for May babies!!  I've been meaning to start taking belly pics so my mom and MIL (mother-in-law) can stay up to date, but I've been too busy sleeping :)  I'm going to try to start this Sunday (9 weeks).  We'll see how it goes ;)  As for now, I'm just praying for peanut to keep growing healthy and strong.
