Well, it's towards the end of week7. The baby will be about a half an inch big and looks like an alien tadpole.
I don't have any new symptoms this week. My feeling icky varies day by day. Mon & today not so good. No problems on Tues. Wednesday was ok. I still haven't puked which is great, just not feeling good. Very tired. Still irregular, with today being not so fun there.
My sinuses are still swollen, but I am using a humidifier at night and that is helping to reduce the swelling and letting me sleep better.
Milk chocolate is not sitting well, built dark chocolate is fine. How weird is that! Oh- smells are starting to bug me. Someone at work has burnt some food 2 days in a row in the lunch room which wasn't pleasant.
Looking forward to the dr appt on Tuesday. Seems like it is taking forever to get here.
In wedding news....my team at work is planning a shower for me. We are not registering for gifts cause we are well established. So I told them gift cards are fine and I don't want a big fuss. We'll see how that goes. A few people suspect I am preggo but they haven't asked me yet. I am not sure when I'll share the news, maybe after the shower thing.
I did get my dress last week. It is being altered and will be ready on July 11th. It needed to be hemmed, the straps shortened and a bustle created. It is pretty and not very fussy. I need to get a special bra and a hair clippy thing. I need to think about a necklace too.
Well I need to get ready for bed. More next week.

So it's the start of week 6. Not much has changed symptom-wise. I still have icky moments in the afternoons and evenings. Mornings are not that bad. I haven't thrown up yet, a couple of times where I wanted to but didn't. I am tired, have swollen sinuses, irregular, sore/tender boobs, heartburn, and have to go pee all the time.
I did a spa day with two girlfriends from work today. I did a mani-pedi. They did massages and body scrubs. We hung out in the jacuzzi room, I didn't use the jacuzzi or sauna as it's not good for me right now. A bit of a bummer as I'm sure the jacuzzi would have felt nice. My club sandwich for lunch did not sit well, I had serious thoughts of throwing up but it settled down.
We told my family Friday night. We decided we should tell them now and I didn't think I could keep it a secret until we see them in July.
I made Mom & Dad a picture frame that had " reserved for baby XYZ Feb 2015" as the picture. It took Mom a minute to figure it out, then she started to cry. Dad took a bit longer to get it. Both are thrilled. Next I called my sister on FaceTime, Mom called but pretended not to know I was calling. Sister was so excited she was jumping up and down and screaming I'm going to be an auntie. The girls couldn't figure out what she was saying.
I did make them promise not to tell anyone until after our dr appt. That will be hard for them. They see the H siblings the weekend prior to the appt. and they see Gma often. It's been hard not to tell a bunch of people myself.
In wedding news, I am going dress shopping on Friday with a girlfriend from work. It won't be a big princess-y dress, probably more cocktail or something. We are mailing in the application for our license on Mon or Tue. My wedding band is being made, we went Friday and had it designed. I'll get my ring back in a week or so. I ordered his ring yesterday. It should be delivered around the 17th.
Time seems to be passing slowly for the baby part but moving much quicker on the wedding part. Both are very exciting!

Well, the first hormonal reaction happened today.we were putting away the groceries and the man saw I bought smoked sausage. Apparently I bought the wrong flavor and then the plastic bag with apples broke and one fell to the floor. I started to cry.
It was stupid things to cry about but I there I was crying away. The man was great, came over an held me; apologized for the sausage comment. Then he made me go sit down and drink some water cause I got really warm. I think that was part of it, I felt really sick, I was overly warm and these pregnancy hormones took over.
I haven't been that sensitive since I was 12 or so when Dad said "set the table Mabel" and I started to cry and said "my name's not Mabel". I sure hope this is not a sign of what will come. I'm a bit worried that I might cry at work if things get to intense. That would not be good.
I did take a hour nap today, that was very nice. I find the afternoons/evenings a bit tough with nausea and heart burn. I think these symptoms are only the beginning, I'm just starting week 5 and the books say week 6 is when things start getting "good" for symptoms to ramp up.
I would rather have the symptoms and know things are progressing as expected. Even tho they are not too fun.
