Week 7 - The Gagging Begins

I forgot how not pretty the first part of being pregnant is. All I want to do is lay around all day and do nothing. I have absolutely no energy to clean up and chase Rachel around. I do still play with her, I think she would go insane if I didn't, I just have to be extra careful with her because if I play too hard I feel like I am going to hurl all over the place. Which is another thing I forgot about, the constant queasy feeling that I have every morning. I absolutely HATE mornings now or at least the first 4 hours of the day. Everything makes me gag or feel like I am going to throw up. The other day I did throw up and Rachel was right there laughing at me in the bathroom, such a sweetheart. Another thing I forgot about that I really hate about being pregnant, is the gas build up you get. I mean everything gives me gas now, I could drink water and I am bloated. Ugh, but I do know it's just my body figuring things out for this new little life to grow in me.

An update on the Medicaid, I mailed in the initial application last week and they sent me an updated form with my info requesting more information. I have until next week to sent in that form and hopefully we will be able to get the coverage. I am looking forward to when I can find a doctor and see my baby growing in me.

Dear Baby,
I just want to say that I do love you. I know at first I was really worried and wondering if this was the best thing right now but now I am already in love with you. Don't you worry at all, God is mighty and knows what He is doing. All you have to worry about is growing big and strong inside of mommy. Your daddy and big sister are excited that you are going to be apart of our lives in just 7 short months. I love you honey.
Love, Mommy
