11 weeks

My belly is definitely larger this week.  We go in this Thursday (2 days from now) for our 3rd dr's appointment, and I am hoping to get new pictures of our little love and to hear the heartbeat.  I might resort to going to one of those independent 3d ultrasound places if we don't get to hear it.  I am very anxious (once again) before our appointment.  This is also the financial planning appointment and complete OB workup (since the baby is officially a fetus. . . . even though it has always been official to us).

11 weeks
- still emotional over silly things.  Ward told me last Sunday that we should probably just eat lunch at home instead of going out and I burst into tears.  It did not go over well.  But I ended up eating some lunch and taking a 2 hour nap, then felt much better (emotionally) after that.
- Allergies have been crazy this week.  But it is also the week before my birthday and I always end up getting sick around this time.  I have a sinus infection and have been waiting on a call from Dr. Strebel to see if there is anything I can take besides mucinex and benadryl. (got the call from the nurse, said she called in a Zpack for me.  Ward picked it up on his way home from work, but I still haven't taken it.  Even though my Dr. prescribed it for me, I'm still nervous to be taking so much medicine with little love inside of me.  Thinking I'm going to wait until I'm practically dying before I resort to taking it.  But at least now we have it in the house!)
- Still loving spicy things and red meat.  Haven't been craving sour things as much this week.
- Trying to drink more water.  When I am at school I always forget to drink consistently, so I am trying to be much more conscious of my intake.
- Trying to not eat as much at one time, even if I am starving.  There's just not a lot of room in there for everything!
- Trying to make myself nap after school.  I feel so much better when I do.
- started to have sharp pains whenever I stand up really quickly or sneeze/cough while lying down.  Read that it is just your ligaments stretching to accommodate everything growing down there.
