14 down…26 to go

Well everyone, I made it past the “danger” point. I am officially 14 weeks this week so I have made it past the point where miscarriages are most common. That doesn’t mean that something else won’t happen…and we will take those as they come…but as some of you have have already been pregnant might know it is like a breathing huge sigh of relief once you pass into the 14 week mark.

Still sick on and off. I will have a few good days, then have a bad day but even the bad days are getting better. I don’t have to lie down on the couch like a slug all day trying to get my stomach to settle anymore, I will just feel a little sick and not eat much. Let me put it this way…I was able to eat STEAK the other day complete with A1, mashed potatoes and fresh green beans!!! And the NEXT day I ate pot roast! Whoot!

I went to the Dr today for my second prenatal. He said everything looked good and we heard the baby’s heartbeat nice and strong. I get to stop my medication at 16 weeks (thank goodness) so I am hoping that will be the end of feeling so sick.

I have to say I am getting a little nervous about having another kid in the house. Babyhead loves other children and even babies, but I am not sure how he is going to take a baby in the house that will take away a lot of his attention. I am going to do my best to include him as much as possible with the baby’s care, but I am not sure it will help. DH and I have made the decision though that when he (DH) is home Babyhead will have to be his responsibility attention wise. Not that I don’t think I could take care of two children, but Babyhead will need the support of someone else and chances are the new baby will want no one but me for a while.

Of course all these plans might go out the window as well. LOL I guess we will see come July.
