10 Down 30 more to go!!

This week in my pregnancy:

We are at week 10 and are officially at fetus status which means “little one”
Hooray!!! We are now starting to look like a little baby with eyes lids, ears, fingers and toes instead of like a tadpole!!

I found a cool site that tells me this week:

The roller coaster of nausea may almost be over, but the roller coaster of emotions (happy, sad, crying, mad; and that's all in the last 30 seconds) is just revving up. Also the Baby's brain will make an incredible 25,000 new neurons every minute this week

The site also tells me we are now the size of a mondo Brazil nut which I like better than the prune (what the heck) that the baby counter on the right is showing. lol!!

10 Weeks Pregnant

I haven’t been feeling anywhere near as sick as I have the last month and I do think I’m starting with the crazy emotions. Lately as I’ve been on the way to work on the bus that takes us in, every little thing other people do annoys the heck out of me. I’ve been riding the bus for almost 6 yrs now and never have people gotten on my nerves so much!! Little things like constantly bumping my arm THE WHOLE RIDE IN while I’ve squished myself as close to the window as I possible can, I’m not even that big yet, or how bout the guy who pulled out a bag of potato chips and insisted on switching hands with the crinkly crunchy bag every two seconds on top of all the munching smacking sounds as he ate with his mouth wide open right in my ear. UGH makes me want to turn around and SCREAM an ear full to some of these people!!! Lol thankfully I have been able to hold it together…..so far ;-)

I am enjoying seeing how the baby is progressing. 10 years ago when I had Taylor I was 16 years old and didn’t get to relish in this kind of stuff!! I’m not even sure we had a computer yet back then!! And I was too busy being a teenager trying to finish high school to pick up a baby book. By this time I hadn’t even told my mom and was keeping the fact that I was pregnant hush hush. Once I did tell everyone they gave me the “you ruined your life speech” but I guess I showed them (*turning my nose in the air here, j/k)

Now everyone I tell is super excited and I’m having a lot of fun with it!! I have already starting looking at nurseries, which is another luxury I wasn’t able to take with Taylor.  Don’t get me wrong. Once everyone got over the initial shock that I was pregnant at 16 we all got excited, epically my mom and we got to do fun stuff like shop!!!

Taylor told me last night at the dinner table she’s glad she doesn’t have an old mom ;-) it was too cute!! Oh she has also told me I could have been on the show 16 and Pregnant…I just laughed and told her I could have STARTED that show and be making a nice living off it by now. She is being awesome of course! She hasn’t shown a lot of excitement just yet, but when she was sick a few weeks ago she didn’t want to kiss me because she was afraid she would get me sick. I think once I start showing more and we start shopping for a boy or girl it will become more tangible for her.

I’m starting to look at baby names and am having a tough time with it. We already had a girl named picked out before I even got pregnant. But we both feel like we need to be looking at boy names (hopefully I didn’t just jinx us) Thankfully there is still a long time to think about it, although I'm plenty ready to get this pregnancy show on the road!! I’m ready to be fat with a big baby belly and feel all the little kicks and punches that come with it! Of course I say that now and in a couple months I might be eating those words but oh well!!

Next week is Christmas (MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE) and the week after that I have my next appointment and ultrasound scheduled so until then I hope everyone has a Blessed and Happy Holidays!!!
