one more week

11.26.2012
this post is for personal use only. if you hate complainers do not read on. if you've been there and felt my pain feel free to listen to how my first trimester has treated me!  i honestly did not expect pregnancy to be so harsh {i know, i know... just wait for what's coming} maybe i had too much of a positive attitude that it got me no where but the dumps. for any future first time mommies {or for myself for future babies} it's not as easy as it seems.. but, maybe you'll get lucky and it'll be a breeze. now.. don't get me wrong,  i am so unbelievably grateful for this little one and i most definitely wouldn't change anything for the world. but the whole "morning sickness" thing is a big fat lie. in fact it can be {and always is for me} morning, afternoon, oh and night time sickness. i kid you not, i feel nauseous 24/7. every second of the day. i only feel somewhat normal after i throw up for about... 30 seconds, then it's back to being sick.  oh. you & throwing up are the best of friends now.  when i was growing up {all the way until the present day} i have hated throwing up.  to the point where i would make sure that i didn't. at all. within the last  8+ weeks, i've thrown up more than i have in my entire life, times {hmmm, let's say} 30. i'm not lyin. i moan, all the time. hopin and prayin that my moaning will make everything better. my hubby is probably so sick of me by now. in the beginning, popsicles were the only things that kept me somewhat happy. now it's these darn mints, that really i just cant stand anymore. oh! and thank the heavens for keva juice!!! zofran never helped me, in fact it made things coming back up even harder to come back up.  i can't keep a prenatal vitamin down, good thing they have chewables. every smell makes me wanna barf, especially our apartment. i love my husband more than anything in this world, but... his body soap. and sometimes a certain way that i hold his hand makes me gag, so i hold his thumb.warm baths calm me down and i love hanging out at my grandma's house because it reminds me of my childhood. {it's very comforting} maybe i'm just being a baby.... i don't know, but the first trimester is very miserable. good thing we only have one more week left!!! whoo whooo!  you see, all these things are not fun at all.  but then you see your little one for the very first time ever, and it gives you hope.  there is our little baby egg. {now 12 weeks} we even heard the heart beat which made my heart skip a beat. dave and i are beyond excited to meet this little one.
{thanks for letting me get this off my chest} come visit again!!

baby makes three.

guuueeeessss what?! yes, the picture says it all! we are {very} excited to announce.... baby makes three.

i have always dreamed of the day when i find out that i'm pregnant with our very first baby ... but never knew how soon it would actually happen.  {and no, this little eggett was not a surprise!} i don't think it has actually hit either of us quite yet, but once that belly shows up i'm sure it will become reality. On the morning of october 17, 2012 i woke up and the first thing dave says "you have to pee on the stick" i was so nervous, i wanted it to be positive so badly.. and i just wanted to wait at least a couple more days until we found out. but dave got his way, and that morning we found out that we have a little one on the way.  dave was {literally} jumping up and down yelling with excitement and i sat there, so excited i just didn't know what to do or say!

these past few weeks have been really rough... and honestly i wish someone would have warned me before. i've thrown up more in the past 4 weeks than i have in my entire life! times ten!!! my hair has been in a bun on the top of my head for 4 weeks straight.  with what i've been wearing, you wouldn't think i owned anything besides sweats. i eat about 6-8 popsicles a day {if not more}. i love my mints. and i hate the smell of everything. everything i say. but i think to myself, this is all going to be worth it in 7 months.

we can't wait to meet you baby eggett!!!!
