so i had my suspicions that i might be with child.... i took a test a few weeks ago, but i think it was too early to detect... so i tried again a week later..... i woke up at 4:30 am to dahlia crying and went straight to the bathroom as normal (i pee a lot at night) i was so tired that i forgot to take the test. as soon as i finished my business i noticed the test on the counter and made myself sit there until i had enough to get a sample..... i didnt see two lines at first( might have been because my vision was blurred since it was the middle of the night!) but then i looked again, and i couldnt believe what i was seeing... i mean i thought that i was pregnant but until i saw it i wasnt truly convinced. so weird. so i picked up dahlia and went in and told justin that there was a baby inside me... he said(in a tired groggy voice) "hooray, that's great." when i came back to bed after feeding dahlia he says, "next time you get pregnant, can you not tell me at 4:30 in the morning"... uh sorry honey(= i didnt want to take it then either, but since i thought of it i couldnt have possibly have gone back to sleep and wonder if i was.... anyways, when we got up the next day we were  very happy and dahlia was too(=
So if any of you remember my first pregnancy... I had BAD morning sickness! not so much in the morning necessarily but just all day long! it didnt last too long though, i think it was about week 12 (4th month) that it got much better, which was very convenient since i started working that month as well.
This time around i was feeling just fine, but then this past weekend i began to feel a bit nauseas. i thought maybe it was just cuz i was super tired or something i ate... but no..... it is in fact morning sickness once again. Only this time it isnt quite as bad. I dont actually feel like i am going to throw up, but just in a constant state of queeziness most of the day. we were grocery shopping yesterday and i bought a ginger ale and it seemed to help. (ginger ale is supposedly helpful for morning sickness) maybe ill try the capsules instead.. much cheaper.
Last week dahlia was SUPER cranky.... but it was because she was getting her top teeth in and that also was causing her nose to run away. I am so glad she got that out of the way before i started feeling gross, it would have made things a little stressful trying to make her happy and keep me happy too(= the only thing that keeps her occupied and entertained for a long time is her go-kart. but only if she is in the kitchen and so am i... and if i am not feeling good i really dont want to be in the kitchen! so this is going to be an interesting couple months....
oh by the way i am 5 weeks pregnant! and we are very excited! we are looking forward to dahlia and the new baby being close in age. sure it might be a little tiring chasing them around the first couple years, but i am sure it will be worth it! furthermore this couldnt have happened at a better time... i am due in may.. right before it gets too hot! woohoo!  funny thing  though... i  just have been able to fit nicely back into my old jeans and now i am pregnant (= oh well i dont really like them anymore anyways!
