Baby Appointment!

Had my 16 week appointment today. Heard the heart beat again. 148 bpm. Last month it was 160 bpm. Don't worry, totally normal. I was convinced to take my flu shot today. YUCK. Wish I had waited and thought it over for a month. I don't want to vaccinate the baby, why did I vaccinate myself? I also gained 5 lbs. I'm so bad. I need to get it together, but it doesn't feel like I'm over eating. I eat when hungry and don't when I'm not. So, it's a mystery. It will be a bland grocery trip next time we go. I have to finish some reading for class tonight, but I had to pop in cause I'm still feeling so excited and lucky! I should be in KY this weekend getting some more baby supplies. YAY!

Nervous!

I have school tonight. I am taking 4 classes, 2 each nine weeks of the semester. I am so nervous. I am worried I won't do well or get the work done. I am worried I won't have other time to prep for the baby or take care of the house at all. I just preform the best under pressure, so I feel that when my load is light, I tend to slack. At least this way I have many responsibilities. I feel I will come closer to living up to all the responsibility and maybe even getting more then anticipated done.  I am happy to get 12 hours knocked out. I hope I can keep it up and also that I can get on track for being a dentist. I just don't seem my classes being available at night. Most of what I am taking now is elective, I need to get the other ones done! I feel like alot of changes are coming my way. I just really hope I am able to stay in school and work. I wish I could work at Sephora full time and educate. They can work around a schedule much better then M-F 8-5 like my full time job. On the other hand, I just got a nicer office and furniture, I feel I need to stay here a while longer. I just don't know what to do. I hope the answers come to me.

Not Hungry

These last few days have been very odd. I have struggled with having an appetite. While I have always had a healthy appetite, especially since pregnant. I now really don't. I am having to make myself eat. Once I eat I feel fine, not sick or anything, but it feels so odd to not be hungry. I am ready to go to the appointment next week and talk to my Dr. about it. I love eating so it is odd to me to not feel so hungry. It just started too, like Sunday. I feel like when I eat, I am eating a more appropriate amount, versus alot of food. I gained 6.5 lbs between my 8 wk and 12 wk appointment so maybe I won't have gained as much this time, which would really be healthier. I doubt it though, I will have a week of not hungry to stack against 3 weeks of starving constantly. We shall see I guess. I just hate feelinging like I don't know what is happening or if everything is okay. My gut is telling me all is well though, which makes me feel comforted.

So Excited

I am getting so excited about this whole thing. I am so busy, I haven't been logging any of my feelings or doings. But, my feelings are easy, tired, excited, impatient. I just feel so good. I feel overwhelmed sometimes, but I know it will all work out. I have been shown so much support. I plan to post a belly pic soon and also so pictures of the generosity I have already been shown. I have baby books, maternity clothes, a basinet (sp?), and a baby bed, stroller/carseat and more maternity clothes coming! I am so excited and so lucky and so happy. This is wonderful!!!!!!!
