Full Steam Ahead at 6 Weeks!

So I've been reading my blog lately about my pregnancy with Haley ( I blogged the whole time!) because this pregnacy is happening at the same time!! The due date with this baby is June 3rd, only a week apart from when Haley was originally due on June 10th. Crazy huh? I think it's so awesome that I can compare my pregnancies since I blogged about it because I sure can't mentally remember that stuff from 4.5 years ago!

Today I am 6 weeks. Baby is as tiny as a sweet pea. Last week the nausea already kicked in, gagging every now on then, and the statement that pregnancy makes your smelling senses like a bloodhound couldn't be more true! I smell everything.  Today I attempted to go grocery shopping after doing a little cardio at the Y and the gagging/coughing/almost tossing my cookies almost happened in the parking lot so I drove myself home and decided that grocery shopping just wasn't gonna happen today. Called the Dr on the way home and they called me in the "miracle pill" that I referred to my last pregancy, Zofran.  Helps with nausea and vomiting so I'm hoping I start to feel better. Luckily this time around insurance covers the medicine 100%, no copay! Last time insurance would only cover 15 pills and if I needed more I could only get 12 more but I'd have to pay $50 out of pocket without insurance covering it. Crazy what hormones can do to you!  Oh I can't forget to mention, I had a sucky time on the ellipitical today because the lady next to me almost made me puke, she smelled so sweaty and sour, she just made my morning worse.

Other than that, Haley is super excited to become a big sister! She has been telling everyone at school and her teachers that we are having a girl.  So Haley has made it obvious that she would like a baby sister. She also tells everyone that "Daddy wants a baby brother so he can take him fishing" haha. Smart girl!  So according to the chinese calendar predictions, says its going to be a boy this time. It said a boy when I was pregnant with Haley too, but that wasn't the case.  My SIL Chrissy has a method that has yet to be proved wrong, with her it said boy, and she had a boy. With Haley it said girl, and that was right too. And with this pregnancy, the method says boy, so we shall see!  We would definitely love a boy this time around. 

I will definitely be blogging this go around! It's so great to be able to look back at all this. I'd love to print the blogs out when Haley and the new baby get much older and put it in an album for them to have along with baby pictures. 

Until next time.....
