9 weeks 6 days - I'm almost 10!

I know that sounds funny but at 10 weeks it is just getting further into the pregnancy. That means that miscarriage is getting further away and maybe the end of the nausea will be getting closer. Everyone I know keeps saying, maybe this one will be different. I hope so too. Everyone is also saying this one is a girl, but really they say that every time and I always get a boy. I have three amazing little boys and so who wouldn't want another one just like the three I have already. I love those kids!

Yesterday was another nightmare. My parents just love to eat out and we went to a buffet last night. The worst thing for someone who has smell aversion. My mother seems to have gone the opposite direction. After being totally supportive she has become much more combative and seems to feel this is all in my head.  :(  I continue to explain the problem and try to hope she will be understanding but it just seems to make her more angry. Granted she had four children, so for her pregnancy problems are not common and she feels like I should just breeze through this pregnancy.

By the time I got home last night I was ready to lay down and not come back out of the room for the rest of the night. Of course I can't, I have three boys who need me so I was back out but I was on the couch. Mom of course wanted me to sit outside with them, but really I just wanted to lay on the couch for a bit with my eyes closed. After a while I felt like I could get up and function but it took a good long time. I was miserable.

I called the doctor about the break through nausea. She called in Reglan. I cannot take Reglan, it makes me crazy and makes my arms and legs go numb. I was frustrated but what can you do when you are this far away from the doctor. So I just said nothing. I figure on the drive home I will pick Larry up from the airport, down some benedryl and sleep till we hit the hotel.

Tomorrow is 10 weeks! That only leaves 30 more approximately. Baby will probably come before week 40, so it will be less than that but that is not that many more weeks!

Where I am today...

• I am 9 weeks and 6 days
• I am still very, very tired.
• I am still visiting my parents, and I think my Mom is over my issues...but hey so am I ...
• I am finishing my last few weeks of this term for school...
• I am having break through nausea and vomiting that comes through the Zofran
• I am so ready to feel better and not feel the nausea....
• I am looking forward to having another little peanut (which I am sure is a boy even though everyone says it is a girl)!
