First Appointment

Well today was my first appointment and it was normal I guess. I peed in a cup for them and they did a pap and breast exam. He also did an internal..I guess that's what it's called. I didn't have time to ask before he stuck his lubed up finger up my hoo ha. He said my cervix is closed and everything "felt" fine..Thanks doc! I gave them 4 tubes of blood. They gave me a huge packet of info, some baby magazines, prenatals, and iron pills. Also gave me some info about different classes, breastfeeding, birthing.... The hospital wants me to come pre-register and take a tour at my next appointment which is Feb 26th. I also get an ultrasound and get to hear the heartbeat at that appointment. I should be 12 weeks and a few days at that appointment but I'll find out how far along I really am..or atleast pretty close to it with the US. They do 4 week appointments until I'm 32 weeks then it's weekly. Uhm I think that's all that they went over really. Our little nugget is doing great so far!

Starving

So far today I've ate cheese grits, a few handfuls of grapes, a slim jim and now I am devouring my box of goldfish. I'm starving and I just can't put enough food down my throat. I can't wait for lunch! Left over hamburger steaks with mashed potatoes and gravy and some potato salad (if there's any left over from yesterday's deer roast lunch at work) It's only 11:08 too...oh dear today is going to be a long day of stuffing my face! Tonight is going to be so much fun at work with all that yummy smellin food...

EDIT: I couldn't stand the look of the leftovers...I HAD to go to taco bell for lunch..I am now stuffing my face with all the cheesy gloriness that is a quesadilla with extra cheese! yummy!

One thing I'm already tired of...

It hasn't even been a week yet since we told everyone about me being pregnant and I'm already sick and tired of hearing "are you nervous because of what happened the last time?" I swear if one more person asks me that I will rip their throat out!! I am trying my hardest not to compare this pregnancy to the last. Every pregnancy is different and what happened with Wyatt was nothing I could of done to prevent. It's not like I could stick my hand up my vagina and untie the umbillical cord myself...come on!! People really need to think about what they are saying/asking before they open their damn mouths. Seriously...listen to how it sounds..think I really want to hear that? Okay..my rant is over...damn the hormones!

On another note...the kids were really excited when we told them. B wants a little brother. He says 2 sisters are enough!

Told our families

Yesterday Darren told his dad at work (yes we all 3 work together) the whole office and plant knows and everyone is really happy for us. They all know the story about Wyatt since we moved here 2 weeks after we lost him and I was still a little crazy from going through all that we did. I stopped and told his mom on my way home yesterday and she was so happy. She's having some hard times right now and I hope this baby gives her hope to pull through. I called my dad last night and asked how my stepmom was doing and she was in her own room but she was in and out of sleep. I told my dad to tell her something for me when she woke up and he said okay sure...I said "Tell her that y'all are going to have a grandbaby!" I think I heard my dad's jaw hit the floor! He told me congrats and to take care of myself..normal parent stuff. He said he'd tell her as soon as she woke up and could understand him. I'm hoping she is able to talk today so I can call and talk about her surgery. This is part 1 of her 2 part surgery. She goes back in 3 months for the 2nd part I think. Well after all of that I called a few friends and a few other family members. I had to write my brother a myspace msg though because I have no idea who he is staying with while our parents are in Houston. We're telling the kids tonight when we pick them up and they are going to be so happy!

Doctors pee stick

Went to the doctor on my lunch for a test. It came back positive...my edd is September 15th!!! This is going to be such a fun summer...I'll be hugely fat. I guess it's a good thing though. I still have my maternity clothes that I wore when I was pregnant with Wyatt and since I was big and fat during the summer I'll get to wear them this summer all over again. Saving me some money! Well my next apt is next Friday morning at 9:30.

BFP!!!

Well we got our BFP last night! I wrote yesterday about Darren saying he knew I was pregnant and I knew I wasn't. On the way home I stopped and bought 3 tests at the dollar store. I bought 3 bc I knew I was out at home and I didn't think I'd only need 1. Well Darren leaves for his night job, his friend Josh (who is staying with us for a few weeks) left shortly after to go to his friends. Normally I wait for Darren to be at home before I test but I knew it was going to be negative so it wasn't a big deal. Well I did my business and washed my hands...glanced at the test before I threw it away and it was a positive...I was in shock! I drove all over town last night looking for anLSU onsie to give to Darren when he got home but couldn't find one anywhere. So I went home and thought of a cute way to tell him...I put a hot dog bun in the oven and waited for him to get home. When he walked through the door we said our hellos and kissed eachother, he walked out the kitchen to put his stuff down and I called him back in and said "hey come look at the oven" well it took him a while to get it..at first he was like what the hell is that doing there. I said well what is it..he said "a hot dog bun"...I asked him where it was and he said "in the oven"..this went on for a few minutes before I finally had to say "Darren there is a hot dog BUN in the OVEN" Guys are so clueless but he figured out it and was so happy. I'm going to call my doctor soon and try to make an apt for today.

Late late late...like always

Today is the 21st and I still haven't had my period yet. Today at work Darren walks by my office holding his hands underneath his jacket (making it look like a bump) and I damn near fell out of my chair laughing at him. He thinks I'm pregnant, I don't think I am. I know I'm late but my cycles just keep getting longer and longer...last cycle was 38 or 39 days I think. Today I'm on CD42 with no sign of AF coming anytime soon. My boobs just started to hurt 2 or 3 days ago and I'm not cramping or bloated yet. I have been trying not to get my hopes up just because I'm late. I try to remind myself that my body is trying to regulate itself from coming off of BC in July..but still a tiny part of me wants to take a test tonight...can't hurt anything right? The only thing that is different for me this month from last month is my total lack of interest in sex with my hubs. Less sex equals less of a chance of getting pregnant since I'm not charting. When am I going to give in and start temping??

Happy Birthday!

Yesterday was my 22nd birthday and it wasn't very exciting at all! I had to work all day but I got off early from the restaraunt...and by early I mean 8:00! Yep...I was home before 10:30 but I still didn't get in the bed until after 11 and didn't go to sleep until I know after 12:00! I'm so tired this morning but I'm making myself stay awake now. Well anyway...Sunday night me, Darren, Josh, Genee, Thao, and Genee's cousin went to the casino for my bday dinner and I won $250, Josh won $270, and Darren won $50! Me and Darren went to Best Buy Monday and bought a 22" flat screen for our bedroom. I can now lay in the bed and watch the news and go to sleep instead of falling asleep on the couch and having to get up later and get in the bed lol. The office got me a cake yesterday and yes it was nasty. I like white cake with no filling with butter cream icing. Darren knows this and he tells Antonella what to get...what does she come back with?? Chocolate cake with chocolate pudding filling (nasty!) and whip cream icing (even nastier)...I left it here over night and I'm hoping the guys eat it so she doesn't ask why I didn't bring it home! I had a piece of it but all I ate was the chocolate cake itself, I scraped everything else off. It's the thought that counts and I think it's sweet they did that for me. I do it for everyone else's bday and it's nice to get it back in return.

2009

I can't believe it's already 2009! Last year flew by. We had a pretty good holiday. Santa was good to the kids and our Santa (my parents) was good to us too. Our new years was fun. We went to our friends parents house and had a bon fire and drank and ate. We had alot of fun. Today was my first day back to work and it was hard as hell to get up! I had to wake up at 5:15 this morning and got to work for 6:00. I don't get off until 4:30 so it's going to be a long day. It's almost lunch time and I'm considering spending my 30 mins of my lunch break taking a nap.
