Well. It's been 5 days since we found out we are expecting. It still seems a bit surreal. There are times I don't have any symptoms and others that I do.
Already, the waistbands of my pants are getting uncomfortable and I definitely need new bras. Food is a bit challenging, things I think will be fine aren't. I already mentioned watermelon. Ripe cantaloupe is also in that bad bucket. Thankfully chocolate is safe. Potato salad and baked chicken from Fry's was not but the beans were good.
One of the most annoying is the change in regularity. I need to get some Metamucil very urgently. I didn't care for the activia yogurt. The sweetener that is used is unpleasant.
I really I want to tell people our exciting news but I want to wait until our first appointment. Gene is confident all is well. He is also sure the baby is a girl. I have no feelings one way or the other. To me the baby is not a gender yet, even though I know the gender has already been determined. I know Gene will be thrilled if it's a boy, he just knows it's a girl. Time will tell.
I did get him a book for expectant fathers. This is so new to both of us. There is a lot of info for women but not much for men. I think he will enjoy the book.
