I have been really morning sick and then caught the flu (man, is that fun...) and just really was dealing with hating being pregnant. Fortunately, the last week or so has been much more tolerable, especially since now I have felt the baby move on a regular basis! The picture above is of a 17 week old baby - and should look like our baby does now :-)
I dreamed last night about the baby and it was probably the first time that I woke up and really fell in love with him or her. It has been very difficult to be excited when I was scared about miscarriage and feeling so sick and blech. I've also been having Braxton Hicks contractions, which is kind of early to feel, but apparently you can have them since 6 weeks and not know.
Anyhoo, we have to go shopping for food, since we haven't done a big grocery shop in probably 2 months and the cupboards are getting bare!
