One more week until doc's appointment! I can't wait until I can at least hear this little heartbeat! It will make all this horrible heartburn I have worth it! (haha!)
No cravings at the moment. I could go for some of mom's chicken and dumplings, but I'm not ready to kill for it yet, so I don't consider it a full blown craving. :)
Back to work, just wanted to say YAY on the one more week!

Another week....
17 weeks, 4 days today! And a milestone, I THINK.... after conferring with my trusty Bump girls, I think I felt baby from the outside!!
There was a post earlier where some of the girls were talking about baby being to one side or the other. When I got home from work, just for the heck of it, I felt around my ute area to see if I was lopsided. Not expecting to feel much since I'm not THAT far along. Anyways, I found that I seemed to be more to the left. I pushed in slowly, just kind of probing, not sure if I was even in the right area, and I SWEAR I felt the tiniest of a flick on my fingertips all of a sudden.
Craziness!
No major cravings lately, in fact, the last 2 days my morning sickness is back again with a passion, which SUCKS! Although PB&J sandwiches are really hitting the spot the last week or so.
A week and a half until my doctor's appointment - I can't wait!
And DROPKICK MURPHYS CONCERT ON FRIDAY! This is gonna be a kick ass next two weeks!

A few random thoughts...
Start off with the current cravings... I got in my White Castle craving today and killed that, so for now, nothing. Well, except garlic. had baked mostaciolli and garlic bread for dinner, a bowl of garlic mashed potatoes a lil bit ago, and now craving a Claussen pickle, but I don't think I can fit in in on top of the potatoes!
As for my current state of mind, I'm in baby hyper planning mode. Trying to decide in the span of one night on a crib, changing table, stroller, etc. etc. I guess it would help if I knew what we were having!
I'm also feelin a huge nesting urge, but not here at this house - I want to be out of here! I love my parents dearly and thank the powers that be that they are so loving and supportive, but I am jonesing for our own space again! Not to mention, my nesting urges involve a baby's room that we just can't have here. Can't wait until Wednesday when I get paid and can finally put part of it in savings!!
I'm also torn on names. Not the real birth names, but the now names, like, ok, I admit, I'm a bad mommy-to-be, cause I call this little one the demon spaawn, but somehow, it fits. This child will be the most charismatic, loveable child ever. To everyone else. For Will and I, I think this child will terrorize us to no end. Payback for the pains in the butts we were as kids!!
Ok, off to bed! Little booger drains the energy right out of me!

Another week....
My FIRST, yes FIRST doctor's appointment is on March 5th at 11am. I am doubtful that I'll get anything more than an internal and pap, and everything else will have to be scheduled from there, but I'm still excited. It makes things so much more real. I was terrified that I would never make it there - then out of nowhere I got this new job that just happens to give health insurance very quickly, so YAY, baby gets healthcare! I feel guilty that I'll be almost 20 weeks along when I finally get to the doctor, but I know it could be a lot worse, and I take my vitamins everyday, and other than these dang headaches, I'm not having any weird problems. Now that I have a date though, it's just so much more real, and time is CRAWLING BY!!
I'm starving, and I really should go do hair and makeup for work, so off I go!

A foray into baby blogging...
I blog a lot on myspace, but I also assume that most of my friends don't want to read my random baby posts, so I figured I would start a new blog here specifically devoted to my pregnancy complaints (LOL!). I love people's blogs talking about their cravings and feeligns and such so here's my own.
Current cravings:
WHITE CASTLE (OMG I could kill for it)
Current complaints:
This headache I've head for about 3 weeks can bite the big one, but other than that, feeling pretty good.
I really want to go to the zoo today! I've been dying to go for weeks now but it's just too cold. I'm leaning towards a zoo-themed nursery (if we end up having a nursery; more on that later) so I think that's where my obsession comes from.
I think, also, I'm just tired of being in the house. I've FINALLY got some energy back, but Will sleeps during the day at works at night, so I spend my weekends sitting around doing nothing, since I don't want him to feel left out. Ugh. On the one hand, I hate that he works 3rd shift, on the other, I feel blessed that he's got a job, since so many other people don't, AND we aren't going to have to put baby in daycare as long as he's working 3rd shift, so that's a definite plus!
