Only 9 more days until the end of my first trimester…..not that I’m counting…..
While each day the pregnancy symptoms get a little bit easier for me; the baby finds some new way to make things more interesting. I’ve always disliked the smell of raw onions, but holy cow, the baby is even less of a fan than I am. Jon chopped up about 5 onions the other day and it took all of the strength I could muster not to run out of the house gagging. Poor guy had to get rid of all traces/smells of onions so I could go into the kitchen. There are still come chopped onions in the fridge in ziploc containers, sitting next to a mug full of baking soda and I can still smell them! I think onions are going to be banned from the kitchen. Sorry, buddy.
My belly has officially popped out a little bit. Yesterday morning I noticed that it seemed bigger than usual. I had to ask Jon about 10 times if it looked like a baby bump or just gut. I’m almost totally convinced it’s baby….but check with me in 5 minutes I might change my mind…
I hope to get some ultrasound picutres up this weekend. We have them from 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and about 9 weeks. Ahh the benefits of a high risk pregnancy- lots of ultrasound pictures of the baby. I’m hoping I’ll lose that title very shortly though. the nurse told me yesterday that I didn’t need anymore progesterone shots. (Wohoo..no more ugly bruises!) Got a doctor appointment coming up on the 30th, so we’ll see. Fingers crossed.
