Well, I am finding conflicting data. One calculator says I am 6 weeks 2 days today, another says I'm exactly 6 weeks. It all depends on how far along I actually am, which will determine where in Sept. my due date actually is. I am going to guess, because of the data I've been working up, that it's between Sept. 24th and 28th. We'll see. I am getting really anxious about my first OB appointment. I have heard stories about how much blood they take! 3-4 vials is common. I am known to pass out cold after only 1 or 2 vials. I am really going to rely on Ken to take my mind off of what's going on, and to keep his cool, too, so he'll be able to be MY strength! :-) Maybe they'll let me lie down like my general dr. does. They know I'm a "difficult case" there already. I had a 2nd bout of semi-morning sickness today. Like yesterday, I felt stable until I ate breakfast. My stomach was growling, so I figured it wanted food! But 30 min
Well, today is officially my first day of my sixth week of being pregnant! Lots of excitement! And a twinge of morning sickness started this day off with a bang. Hopefully it won't get much worse than just those passing "ugh" moments. 11 days until my first Dr.'s appointment, when I can maybe have my first ultrasound! Been working on our tax return today, but I'd much rather be looking at books about nursery decor and infant development! I believe, if I'm remembering correctly, that the baby is developing its ears and other facial parts this week. My nutrition and rest are most crucial during the next 3-4 weeks as its most intricate parts are woven together! How neat.... Till tomorrow..... mommie megret
