7 Weeks...and boy, am I feeling it!

I am now 7 weeks along and the baby is now about the size of a blueberry. By now most of our friends and family know about the little blessing to come. Since last week spilled the beans, we figured we better go ahead and tell people so they can be praying for us...also, we didn't want anyone close to us to find out by way of the grapevine.

As of last week I hadn't had any tiredness or morning sickness, but it is in full bloom now. It's kinda weird, actually. The day after I visit the hospital is about when everything kicked in. Now I'm really tired, especially in the mornings, and get nauseous now and then. It's so hard to get ready for work, and work, every day. I never realized how hard it was to be pregnant until now. Of course, everything I'm feeling all scares me a little and I over-analyze everything. But this is my first baby and I want to make sure and do everything I can to keep it safe and healthy. Added onto the tired and sick feelings, I'm constantly hungry. I'll eat something and then 2-3 hours later I'm starving again. It never ends. And it's sure taking every ounce of energy I have to write this blog entry. So I think I will stop and rest for a while. Maybe put my feet up and take a little nap.
